Autonomous visibility for autonomous construction.
Postlight keeps your BIM up to date every day from what headsets, drones and robots on site see. The crew does nothing extra.

The bottleneck is visibility.
- Engineers work on BIM. The model is coordinated in the design office. A BIM manager brings it up to date by hand, behind the work on site.
- Contractors work on PDFs. The drawings on site are prints marked up by hand. The model is a file nobody on site opens.
- Workers work on WhatsApp. The day's progress is a photo, a sketch and a voice note in the group. The daily report is written from memory.
No single source of truth: wasted time, rework, delays.
A BIM that updates itself as your crews work.
Postlight is a construction digital twin with BIM progress tracking built in. What headsets, drones and robots see on site is checked against the model every day.
- Your model. Revit or Navisworks, brought in as IFC. No model yet? We author one.
- Today's tasks. Each element in the plan becomes a task for a crew.
- Work on camera. Headsets, drones and robots see the work as it is done.
- Checked against the model. What was built is compared to what was planned, element by element.
- Written to the model. Status and deviations go into the BIM with the clip that shows them. Nobody edits it by hand.
No BIM? We make one from a scan.
Scan to BIM for buildings that have no model. Lidar and a terrestrial laser scanner capture the building as it stands. AI turns the point cloud into a BIM, so maintenance, retrofits and redevelopment start from a model that matches the walls.
Owned by you, seen only by your project.
- The owner owns the twin. The model and the record belong to the project, under the same terms as the drawings.
- Consent before the camera. Nobody wears a camera without agreeing to it. Faces are blurred in every view.
- Provenance on every clip. Each clip traces to a site, an element and a task.
- Access by role. Owner, contractor and design office each see what their contract entitles them to.
Start with one site.
