Reality capture, robotics, and visual AI for the built world
Capture site data with drones, ground robots, and 360 cameras, then convert it into maps, 3D models, and measurable site views.
Automatically quantify work completed over time and track schedules so teams can spot slippage before it becomes costly.
Detect visible defects such as rust, leaks, or debris and rank them by severity for faster, more consistent asset protection.
Automatically identify safety risks, from missing toe boards to tripping hazards, to help protect people on site.
AI diagrams and technical design docs built from your code and systems
Generate architecture diagrams, flowcharts, sequence diagrams, and BPMN from a text prompt, code, Terraform, or an uploaded PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Draw.io, or Visio file.
Build interactive maps that sync with cloud accounts, repositories, and internal catalogs so the picture stays close to the real environment, with drill-down from org level to a single container.
Paste code or connect private and public Git repositories, Confluence, Notion, VS Code, and GitHub to keep diagrams grounded in actual implementation.
Run the agent toolkit in your own infrastructure under an MIT license and let MCP-compatible clients create, search, update, and export diagrams with OAuth or API tokens.
