What Imerso does

Imerso AS is a privately held Norwegian SaaS company founded in 2015 and headquartered in Oslo that builds a cloud-native platform for automated construction site supervision. The product combines Building Information Modeling (BIM), 3D laser reality capture, and proprietary AI to compare as-built site conditions against design models and execution schedules, flagging deviations, missing elements, upcoming clashes, surface flatness issues, and progress shortfalls without requiring survey expertise on site.

Its core platform comprises the Imerso Platform plus AI feature modules: Site Checker (deviation classification with green/orange/red indicators), Clash Finder (predictive clash detection against upcoming installations), BIM Fixer (one-click IFC model updates to as-built reality), Scan-Dev and BIM-Dev (visualization and reporting), BIM-Clash (forward-looking collision analysis), Surface Analyser (DIN 18202 flatness compliance), and Progress Control (% Complete calculation). A companion iPad app, Imerso Capture, pairs with Leica BLK360 scanners for one-button site capture, and native integrations sync results with Autodesk Construction Cloud, Bentley Synchro 4D, Dalux, Catenda/BIMSync, Procore, and Solibri. The platform is scanner-agnostic (Leica, Navvis, Trimble, Faro) and operates on open formats (IFC, BCF, E57).

Imerso sells on a project-based subscription that scales with active projects and scanned data volume rather than per-user seats, with multi-year contract terms, volume discounts, and unlimited included users. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales augmented by a self-serve product tour and demo-booking funnel. Customers span public infrastructure, commercial, industrial, renovation, and residential construction across 12+ countries, with named clients including NHN Region Hovedstaden, AF Gruppen, Per Aarsleff, E.Klink, KLP Eiendom, Statsbygg, Betonmast, Byggstyrning, Vinci, Ferrovial, and Hochtief. Total disclosed funding to date is approximately $3M, led by a 2018 round from Newmark Capital and Vito One with participation from 500 Global and TRK Group. Leadership comprises founder-CEO Frederico Valente, founder-COO Sarah Muller, and CTO Simen Andresen.

Core offering

Imerso provides a cloud-native SaaS platform that automatically compares 3D laser scans of construction sites against BIM models and project schedules, using AI and computer vision to surface deviations, clashes, and progress status. The platform is sold via project-based subscriptions (unlimited users, no per-seat fees) with a companion mobile capture app (Imerso Capture) for field scanning with devices such as the Leica BLK360. It is targeted at enterprise construction firms, public-project owners, and VDC/BIM managers across public infrastructure, commercial, industrial, and renovation segments.

Product overview

Imerso is a cloud-native construction inspection software platform that combines BIM, Reality Capture, and AI technologies to automate site supervision and quality inspections in a single unified workflow. The platform consists of the core Imerso Platform as the central SaaS product, augmented by multiple AI-powered feature modules including Site Checker (automatic deviation detection), Clash Finder (predictive clash detection), BIM Fixer (automatic BIM-to-As-Built model updating), Scan-Dev (visual scan analysis), BIM-Dev (automated deviation reports), BIM-Clash (forward-looking clash detection), Surface Analyser (flatness/tolerance checking), and Progress Control (completion tracking). The companion mobile app Imerso Capture enables field teams to capture 3D laser scans. Subscription is project-based (not per-user) with unlimited users included.

Partnerships

Three partnerships are on record, tiered core and minor.

• Autodesk Construction CloudcoreTechnology or IntegrationNative bi-directional integration with Autodesk Construction Cloud and BIM360. Enables pulling BIM models from ACC into Imerso for analysis, and pushing inspection results and issues back to project CDE for team collaboration.
• Synchro 4D (Bentley Systems)coreTechnology or IntegrationIntegration with Bentley's Synchro 4D scheduling software enables automated progress tracking. Imerso inspection results map to BIM objects in Synchro, calculating objective % Complete against planned schedules.
• ArcDoxminorStrategic or Co-development PartnerArcDox uses Imerso to support collaborative, client-focused outcomes for As-Built conditions vs BIM model checks. Enables surveyor partners to upload laser scans directly to Imerso.

Direct peers

• Buildots: Buildots applies AI/computer vision to 360° site capture to track progress and deviations against BIM, directly overlapping Imerso's core deviation-detection use case for general contractors.
• Avvir: Avvir automates BIM-to-reality verification and as-built model updates from laser scans, directly comparable to Imerso's Site Checker and BIM Fixer feature set.
• OpenSpace: OpenSpace combines 360° reality capture with AI for automated progress tracking and as-built documentation, competing head-to-head with Imerso for BIM-vs-site analytics on enterprise construction projects.
• Reconstruct: Reconstruct builds reality-capture-driven digital twins of construction projects for QA/QC and progress monitoring, addressing the same BIM-versus-as-built workflow Imerso serves.
• HoloBuilder (FARO): HoloBuilder, now part of FARO, provides 360° photo-based progress tracking against BIM plans — an adjacent reality-capture approach to Imerso's laser-scan-first workflow.

Broad incumbents

• Autodesk Construction Cloud: Autodesk Construction Cloud owns the BIM 360 / ACC CDE that Imerso integrates with; its scale and ownership of upstream BIM authoring make it the most consequential incumbent competitor.
• Procore: Procore is the dominant construction project management SaaS suite; it could expand further into reality-capture-driven QA/QC and is an integration partner for Imerso today.
• Bentley Systems: Bentley owns Synchro 4D and the broader infrastructure BIM stack; its SYNCHRO integration partner status with Imerso is also its primary lever to compete on 4D progress analytics.

Emerging players

• Revizto: Revizto is an issue-tracking and BIM coordination platform used on the same construction projects Imerso serves; the two increasingly integrate for BIM-vs-site issue workflows.
• DroneDeploy: DroneDeploy offers reality capture (drone and 360°) plus AI analytics for construction progress, overlapping with Imerso on deviation and progress tracking at the site-monitoring layer.
