At OpenSpace, we’re using cutting-edge technology—think the perception and navigation AI systems used in self-driving cars—to allow people out in the real world to efficiently capture their work, analyze it, and get things done. We’re building virtual time machines for every job site.
Reducing the cost, time, and pain it takes to build and operate will revolutionize the industry’s approach to construction specifically and real estate management broadly—and revolutionize how we manage humanity’s built environments overall. Even a savings of one percent would change the game. And we can do a lot better than one percent.
One part computer vision expert and one part industry veteran
The OpenSpace team is one part computer vision expert and one part industry veteran: we are MIT and CalTech and Stanford PhD’s who have pioneered new techniques in computer vision and started and sold technology companies for $100M+ dollars, and we are ex-PE’s, superintendents, and PM’s who have worked in the field and office, from office TI’s to multi-story condos to ground-up hospital campuses.
Built and conceived on the job site
OpenSpace was built and conceived on the job site, not in a conference room. Our CEO had served the construction industry at his past company, and we saw firsthand some of the struggles builders had everyday. The founders built OpenSpace in response to these struggles, and they tested out their ideas in the field from day 1, rejecting and refining prototypes until they heard both the field and office tell them, “Hey—if you can build that, we will definitely buy it—and use it every day.”
So we built it, we called the company OpenSpace, and we’ve been off and running ever since.
