Disperse.io Launches AI-Based Construction Planning Tool

Disperse.io, a U.K.-based construction technology company with a platform that uses artificial intelligence to help project managers track work, capture data from building sites and make better project decisions, has launched a new product, Impulse, that highlights issues gleaned from 360° site scans captured in its platform.

Impulse integrates performance insights into building elevations and presents issues to project managers. Work-in-place information can then be displayed over building elevations during coordination meetings to give contractors more informed discussions with their trade contractors.

Issues that range form ensuring that a ceiling is closed after the rerouting of a pipe to quantifying outstanding scope in order to source a new trade contractor can be informed via Impulse's AI. It tracks issues that come up on site using photographic documentation obtained through regular site scans. Impulse also coordinates drawings, BIM models, plans and construction schedules to give project insights to managers.
