AI for your site management with PlanRadar: less admin for defects and change orders. We build AI software for construction companies and connect it to PlanRadar.

During the walkthrough with the client there is no time to type every defect into the app. Afterwards the defects sit in a voice note and twenty photos on the site manager’s phone. Our software turns them into tickets in PlanRadar, with room, trade and deadline. It matches subcontractors’ replies to the right ticket.

What the software takes over

Defects from a voice note

From the voice note and photos of the walkthrough, the software creates one ticket per defect in PlanRadar, already assigned to the subcontractor for that trade. The site manager sets the deadline once for the whole list.

Replies on the right ticket

When a subcontractor replies by email instead of in the app, the software attaches the text and photo to the matching ticket and marks it for review.

Evidence for change orders

When the client orders additional work by email or in the meeting minutes, the software records the instruction as a ticket in PlanRadar. With photos and site diary entries, it is already documented by the time you submit the change order.

Illustrative use case

From the walkthrough to the tickets

  1. 01

    Walkthrough before handover

    Your site manager goes round the second-floor flats of a residential block with the client, dictating each defect with flat, room and trade and photographing it.

  2. 02

    Tickets are created

    The software creates a ticket in PlanRadar for each defect and attaches the photo the site manager took. If an entry has no room, it asks the site manager.

  3. 03

    Approval and distribution

    Your site manager checks the list while still in the site office and approves it. Only then do the tickets go to the subcontractors, and the client receives the defect list as a report from PlanRadar.

PlanRadar comes with defect management, a site diary and its own AI for your project data, plus ready-made integrations through PlanRadar Connect. Our software brings in what is still outside it: voice notes, emails, phone photos and meeting minutes. It creates tickets, attaches files and sets the status through the open PlanRadar REST API.

Your team practises on a subcontractor’s email

In the training, site management and office staff work with the kind of emails that come in after a walkthrough. The switch shows what a cloud AI gets to see.

Email from a subcontractor
What the AI sees:

“Hello, the silicone joint in the bathroom of flat 2.3 has been redone, photo attached. We will replace the cracked tile in the hall of 2.1 on Monday, as the material only arrives on Friday. How do we bill the extra tiles in the basement? Best regards, Person 3306Murat Aydin, Company 5172Fliesen Aydin”

  1. Your server inserts placeholders
  2. Cloud AI processes it
  3. Your server puts the names back

Only your server knows which placeholder belongs to which person.

  1. Message arrives
  2. The AI on your server works with the full message

Nothing leaves your company.

  1. Mark the defect for review

    Attach the photo to the ticket for the silicone joint in bathroom 2.3 and mark the ticket for review.

  2. Note the date

    Add Monday’s replacement date to the ticket for the tile in 2.1. Site management decides whether that is still within the deadline.

  3. Pass on the extra work

    Pass the billing question to site management. They check whether the basement tiles were commissioned and whether a change order goes to the client.
