Didge (Nextera Robotics)
↘ nexterarobotics.comA construction site-monitoring platform for builders and owners that pairs self-driving jobsite robots with cloud AI. The robots capture the site daily with 360 imagery and laser scans, and the AI turns that into automated progress and inspection reporting — taking over the site walks and documentation a superintendent's field team would otherwise do by hand.
They primarily sell to Construction companies with a promise to improve outcomes on speed of delivery, safety, and $$$.
It touches one phase of the supply chain with a product that is highly digital.
If this works, it will disrupt Construction Services and Incumbent Software.
