HoloBuilder’s mobile JobWalk App enables construction teams to create a digital replica of their project, covering all phases of the building lifecycle and a claimed 80%+ saving on documentation time.
The captured digital construction project can be analysed with SiteAI, HoloBuilder’s artificial intelligence technology. It is claimed this combination makes HoloBuilder the fastest and most insightful solution to document construction projects in a secure SaaS cloud environment.
