About
OpenSpace is a Visual Intelligence Platform built specifically for the construction industry. It empowers general contractors, trades, and owners to capture every corner of their jobsite using smartphones, 360° cameras, drones, and laser scanners—then automatically maps that imagery to project plans and BIM models using AI. The platform consists of several integrated products: OpenSpace Capture creates a complete, timestamped visual record of projects; OpenSpace Field provides AI-powered, image-based task management with AI Autolocation; OpenSpace Progress Tracking gives teams clear visibility into project completion; OpenSpace Air simplifies drone imagery management; and OpenSpace BIM+ delivers 3D tools tailored for field use. With AI-powered workflows that learn from images and expert field input, OpenSpace enables construction teams to coordinate more effectively, conduct QA/QC inspections, manage documentation, reduce insurance costs, and avoid costly rework. The platform integrates with existing construction tools to fit seamlessly into established workflows. OpenSpace has captured over 64 billion square feet across 131 countries, delivering measurable ROI: customers report 95% faster site documentation, 50% reductions in travel costs, 20% fewer scheduling delays, and up to $10,000 in avoided rework and back charges. It is trusted by builders worldwide as the front-end intelligence layer for modern construction projects.
Key Features
- Multi-Device Jobsite Capture: Capture every inch of your jobsite using smartphones, 360° cameras, drones, and laser scanners with automatic timestamping and plan mapping.
- AI Autolocation: AI automatically locates where images were taken on your project plans and BIM models, eliminating manual tagging and making visual data instantly searchable.
- Image-Based Task Management: OpenSpace Field lets field teams create, assign, and resolve tasks directly linked to visual documentation and precise jobsite locations for faster issue resolution.
- Real-Time Progress Tracking: Flexible, reliable progress monitoring provides owners and contractors real-time visibility into project completion status across every area of the site.
- BIM+ 3D Field Integration: Overlays captured imagery onto 3D BIM models, simplifying daily coordination, clash detection, and documentation for field teams.
Use Cases
- General contractors capturing daily jobsite progress with 360° cameras to maintain a complete visual record and resolve disputes or claims quickly.
- Project owners monitoring construction progress remotely across multiple sites without costly travel, reducing oversight expenses by up to 50%.
- QA/QC teams conducting inspections with image-based task management linked directly to specific locations in the BIM model for precise issue tracking.
- Trade contractors coordinating with other crews by sharing visual documentation tied to project plans, reducing scheduling delays and miscommunication.
- Insurance and risk management teams leveraging timestamped visual site records to document conditions, substantiate claims, and avoid costly back charges.
Pros
- Proven, Measurable ROI: Customers report 95% faster site documentation, 50% reduction in travel costs, and up to $10K in avoided rework—backed by published case studies.
- Flexible Capture Options: Supports smartphones, 360° cameras, drones, and laser scanners, giving teams the freedom to capture data in the way that suits each jobsite.
- Global Reliability at Scale: Trusted across 131 countries with 64 billion square feet captured, demonstrating enterprise-grade reliability for projects of any size.
- Seamless Tool Integrations: Connects with existing construction management software so teams can adopt OpenSpace without overhauling their current workflows.
Cons
- Enterprise-Only Pricing: Pricing requires contacting sales, making it less accessible for small contractors or individual tradespeople without a formal procurement process.
- Hardware Investment Required: Realizing full platform value may require purchasing 360° cameras or drone equipment beyond standard smartphones.
- Onboarding Complexity: With multiple products—Capture, Field, Air, BIM+, and Progress Tracking—getting all team members up to speed across the full suite can take considerable time.
