oculai

oculai is a Munich-based construction technology startup that provides automated process and progress monitoring for construction sites using cameras and artificial intelligence. Founded in July 2021 by Constantin Kauffmann, Tim Sippl, and Yannik Mack, the company's core technology uses cameras mounted on tower cranes to capture video footage of construction sites. oculai's proprietary AI and computer vision algorithms analyze this data to detect and document various construction processes automatically. The company's web application offers users access to features such as automated target/actual schedules, AI-generated daily construction reports, process key performance indicators, and extensive camera functions. This solution helps enhance transparency, productivity, and planning in construction projects while automating time-consuming documentation tasks. As of March 2023, oculai primarily focused on shell construction and infrastructure projects, with its technology reportedly saving project management teams up to 20% of their time. The company's AI can currently differentiate between 36 different construction processes, such as concrete pouring for ceilings. oculai's solution is designed to work on any site with top slewing tower cranes, applicable to shell construction projects of various sizes.
