Today, we are thrilled to announce that OpenSpace customers have collectively captured more than 3 billion square feet of construction jobsite imagery. If that sounds like a lot… well, it is!
Three billion square feet is equal to about 1,097 Empire State Buildings—or the total size of Brooklyn and Manhattan combined. What makes us proud is knowing that our technology is helping so many construction teams build schools, medical centers, and residential projects during a difficult year when many areas have been under lockdowns due to the pandemic. Our customers report that the OpenSpace platform is up to 20 times faster and more complete than manual capture.
Getting such complete and up-to-date documentation without a huge time investment helps construction teams work together remotely. That is why we’ve seen such rapid adoption in 2020. In February of this year, we cleared the 500-million-square-foot mark and in July we cleared the 1-billion-square-foot mark. Now, in December, this number has tripled—to 3 billion in just five months.
Construction sites around the world are using OpenSpace for jobsite documentation and analysis, with thousands of projects completed or underway in 33 different countries. OpenSpace’s technology has been adopted by a range of industry leaders, including JLL, Lee Kennedy, Suffolk, Tishman Speyer, Swinerton, Capital One, and more.

For Baton Rouge, La.-based developer Kurt Miller, compiling and staying on top of punch list items used to be a hugely complicated ordeal that required dozens of hours on-site to ensure that every problem had been addressed. First, he and his team at Amesbury Companies would walk the site to physically inspect each component. They…

She first became interested in construction during middle school when her older brother (who works as an estimator) brought blueprints home.
