Siteaware

AI-powered digital construction verification platform

Computer-vision platform that scans structural, envelope, and interior installations as they are built and compares them against the design plan to flag deviations before they become costly rework.

$27M (per FieldSol50; press-reported rounds total $25M: $10M Series A in 2020, $15M Series B in 2022) raisedGrowth Stage
Founded 2015 · 700+ projects completed, 6,000+ floors verified, 3.5M+ elements checked (per siteaware.com/about); named customers include Hines, Trammell Crow Co., Whiting-Turner Contracting Co., Ryan Companies U.S., and ANDRES Construction Services

Why This Tool Exists

The Problem

Fixing construction mistakes consumes an estimated 20% of project cost, and one industry survey put 2018 U.S. construction rework losses above $177 billion in labor alone. Manual, spot-check inspection of structural, envelope, and interior work catches only a fraction of installation errors, and issues are often discovered weeks later when correction is far more expensive.

The Solution

Siteaware's Build-to-Plan(TM) system scans every installed element (core/structural, shell/facade, and interior systems) using 3D scanning captured in the background during normal construction activity, then compares each element against the project plan regardless of the source CAD/BIM format. Deviations trigger real-time alerts to field and office teams, and portfolio-level dashboards let executives benchmark trade and project performance.

Use Cases

  • ·Real-time verification of concrete/structural elements against design during core construction
  • ·Layer-by-layer facade/envelope inspection to catch installation errors before enclosure
  • ·Interior rough-in and clearance verification (MEPF, layouts) before finishes are installed
  • ·Cross-project portfolio analytics to benchmark trade partner and project quality performance
  • ·Reducing rework and schedule slippage by surfacing deviations while still correctable in the field
