Builddots

Buildots is an AI + computer vision platform that transforms the construction site into a real-time digital mirror, enabling firms to monitor progress and forecast delays with objectivity. It uses 360° helmet-mounted cameras (or other site imaging tools) to continuously scan the job site. The AI engine matches these visual captures with planned BIM elements and schedule data, identifying which components are installed, missing, or out of sequence. Buildots’ “Integrated Tracking” lets you bring in manual tasks (non-modelled work) so that everything lives in one unified progress view. One of its standout innovations is Dot, a generative AI assistant you can query to get up-to-date status across the site without digging through dashboards. It also provides Delay Forecast, which uses trend data to predict risk of schedule slippage before they become problems. Another powerful module is Line of Balance automation, which shows interdependencies across activities to flag bottlenecks in multi-activity workflows—something traditionally done manually. For architecture, engineering, and construction teams, Buildots offers a rare 'visibility into execution' tool: instead of assuming what’s built, it shows you what is built, flagged against design. It’s ideal for contractors, consultants, or firms wanting high confidence in as-built verification, progress transparency, and reducing delays.
