What Comtacti does

Comtacti is a São Paulo-based engineering services company founded in 1988 that specializes in road infrastructure inventory and urban mobility research for the transportation sector. The firm captures 360° georeferenced video of roadways using proprietary field equipment (Ladybug 30 MP cameras with GPS RTK and INS integration) and then classifies road assets through its internally developed OMNI7 platform. Each asset record is linked to its source video frame, GPS coordinate, and operator log, providing full traceability from raw footage to final deliverable, with outputs compatible with Shapefile, CSV, and iRAP VIDA formats.

The company operates two complementary fronts: field data collection services (Levantamento Visual Detalhado, Cadastramento de Ativos Rodoviários, and Pesquisas de Mobilidade Urbana) and the OMNI7 software platform that processes and classifies the captured video. The platform has held iRAP accreditation for road surveys and road attribute coding since 2018, renewed in 2022, with three senior team members holding individual Road Attribute Coding certification. Vehicle counting is delivered with a triple-check methodology yielding a 1% average error rate, and clients can request independent re-counts.

Comtacti is privately held as a Sociedade Simples Ltda with no disclosed institutional backing. Its customer base spans highway concessionaires (CCR, EcoRodovias, Via Mobilidade), government transportation agencies (BNDES, ARTESP, DER-SP, BHTRANS, MetrôDF, Governo do RJ, Governo de SC), infrastructure financiers and PE (BNDES, Pátria Investimentos), and research/NGO organizations (WRI Brasil). Revenue is primarily generated through discrete professional services projects rather than recurring software subscriptions, though a forthcoming OMNI7 platform licensing offering has been signaled on the company's website.

Revenue model

1. Engineering and Technical Services: Professional services revenue from field data collection (visual surveys, asset cadastramento) and urban mobility research. Services are delivered as discrete projects for government agencies, highway concessionaires, and engineering consultancies rather than recurring software subscriptions.
2. Platform Licensing (OMNI7): Potential future licensing revenue from the OMNI7 platform for third-party road survey processing. Currently indicated as forthcoming product ("Saber quando o produto for lançado").

Core offering

Comtacti delivers road inventory and urban mobility research services for highway concessionaires, government agencies, and multilateral financiers. Field services include 360° georeferenced video capture (Levantamento Visual Detalhado) of highway stretches, classification and coding of road assets (Cadastramento de Ativos Rodoviários), and urban mobility research such as vehicle counts, boarding/alighting surveys, and origin-destination studies. Its proprietary OMNI7 platform provides georeferenced classification of 360° video footage with full traceability, operator logging per frame, real-time supervision, and export in iRAP VIDA-compatible formats.

Product overview

Comtacti provides road inventory and urban mobility research services through two complementary fronts: field services and its proprietary OMNI7 platform. Field services include Levantamento Visual Detalhado (360° georeferenced video capture), Cadastramento de Ativos Rodoviários (road asset classification and coding), and Pesquisas de Mobilidade Urbana (vehicle counts and mobility surveys). The OMNI7 platform operates at the cadastramento stage, enabling georeferenced classification of any 360° video with complete traceability, operator logging, and real-time supervision. Data exports are compatible with Shapefile, CSV, and VIDA (iRAP) formats.

Functional benefit

Brands

• OMNI7: Proprietary platform for road asset classification and cadastrement with georeferenced traceability, GPS logging, real-time supervision, and iRAP VIDA export compatibility.

Products and services

• Levantamento Visual Detalhado (LVD) Field service that captures 360° georeferenced video of entire highway stretches using Ladybug 30 MP cameras with GPS RTK and INS, filmed in both directions of travel with real-time monitoring and metric GPS precision. The deliverable is a 360° georeferenced video record of the highway, used by highway concessionaires, government agencies, and engineering consultancies as the input layer for road asset classification.
• Cadastramento de Ativos Rodoviários Service that classifies and codes road elements (signage, safety features, geometry) from 360° video, where each record includes input parameters, a linked image, and a coordinate. Supports operator logs per frame, real-time supervision, and exports in Shapefile, CSV, and iRAP VIDA formats. Used by highway concessionaires (CCR contracted 800+ km with 78 attributes) and multilateral financiers (BNDES 1,200+ km for due diligence).
• Pesquisas de Mobilidade Urbana Urban mobility research service covering classificatory vehicle counts, boarding/alighting surveys, origin-destination studies, and demand analysis, with auditable methodology achieving 1% average error in vehicle counts. Targeted at urban transit authorities (e.g., BHTRANS, MetrôDF) and research organizations (e.g., WRI Brasil) for public transport network planning, route planning, and fleet adjustment.
