About
Oculo is an AI-driven platform designed to eliminate project delays and budget overruns in the construction industry through advanced reality capture and site mapping. By replacing subjective progress reports with evidence-backed insights, the tool provides a clear, as-live record of construction sites at specific moments in time. It allows stakeholders to see exactly where they stand against their plans, identify potential issues before they escalate, and determine which tasks require immediate focus. The system operates by combining 360-degree camera footage with AI-assisted mapping technology. Users walk the site with a supported camera, such as an Insta360 or Ricoh, and the platform automatically processes this visual data, mapping it against floor plans or 3D BIM models. Notably, the solution is designed to function without internet connectivity on-site, making it suitable for basements, tunnels, and remote locations. Once uploaded, the footage is reconciled against the project plan, enabling side-by-side comparisons of current reality versus original designs. Oculo is built for construction leaders, project managers, and onsite teams across various sectors, including residential, infrastructure, and cladding refurbishment. It serves contractors, developers, and property consultancies who need to collaborate with multiple stakeholders like clients, quantity surveyors, and subcontractors. Because it does not strictly require BIM to function, it is equally effective for older building renovations as it is for new, highly documented developments. What sets Oculo apart is its focus on ease of use and its commitment to a partnership-based service model. Unlike traditional CCTV or fixed timelapse cameras, Oculo provides a comprehensive, navigable record of the entire site that can be shared with an unlimited number of users. The platform also prioritizes privacy with automatic face-blurring technology to comply with GDPR. The company emphasizes training and assistance to help project teams unleash the full potential of the software within minutes of starting.

FAQs
Do I need a BIM model for Oculo to work?
No, Oculo does not require BIM, making it suitable for renovations and projects with limited documentation. However, if a 3D model is available, the platform can reconcile photos against it for side-by-side comparisons.
Does the system require a constant internet connection on the construction site?
No, Oculo is designed to scan sites without any connectivity, allowing it to be used in basements or tunnels. Internet is only needed after the scan is complete to upload the footage from an office or mobile hotspot.
How does Oculo handle privacy and GDPR compliance?
The platform uses automated face-blurring techniques to prevent the identification of individuals captured during site scans. This ensures that reality capture remains compliant with privacy regulations while providing necessary project insights.
What kind of hardware is required to use the platform?
You need a supported 360-degree camera, such as models from the Insta360 X-series or Ricoh Theta X, along with the Oculo mobile app. Users must also provide floor plans or 3D models for the system to process the footage.
Is there a limit to how many people can view the site scans?
No, Oculo supports multi-user viewing and collaboration with no restrictions on the number of users per project. This allows easy data sharing among clients, quantity surveyors, and remote stakeholders.
