oculai is a Munich-based technology startup founded in 2021 that applies artificial intelligence to the construction industry. The company develops computer vision solutions that monitor construction processes and progress using cameras mounted on cranes, providing real-time, data-driven insights into site operations.
The company's AI-powered platform automatically captures and analyzes construction site activity, comparing observed progress against project schedules. It generates daily reports, documents progress through video clips, and integrates with existing scheduling tools. According to the company, the system can reduce lead times by up to 25% and free up approximately 16 hours of additional capacity per month for project teams.
oculai reports 80% brand awareness among large construction companies in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), with operations extending beyond that market. The company secured €2.5 million in seed funding to support its growth. Its technical work spans computer vision, AI, and process monitoring applied specifically to construction site management.
