Roy Danon is the CEO and Founder of Buildots, an AI that uses state-of-the-art computer vision algorithms to track all activities at construction sites, and provide companies with the information necessary to make the best decisions. He is a graduate of the most elite R&D unit in the Israeli army, Talpiot. He holds B.Sc in computer science from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and an M.SC in Electronics and Electrical Engineering from Tel Aviv University.
When it comes to digital transformation, construction has been a sleeping giant and Covid-19 served as an accelerator for the industry. We are now working with construction companies in over a dozen countries and what we're seeing is that the challenges Buildots is addressing are ubiquitous around the world.
We have built our platform with the principle of transparent AI, meaning that every conclusion the system makes can be drilled down into so that construction managers can develop trust with their new virtual team members.
It even finds events where contractors are installing out of place and streamline payments so that information is transparent and clear. Buildots also creates a collaborative environment and trust by having a single source telling everyone what is going on. There is no more blaming or cutting corners because the system validates that and also makes construction a healthier industry to work in.
Buildots' technology automatically validates images captured by hardhat-mounted 360-degree cameras, detecting any gaps between the original design and what's actually happening on construction sites.
Buildots will use the new funds to double the size of its global team, focusing on sales and R&D to expand its digital twin efforts.
