CHECKTOBUILD
Crunchbase | Website | Twitter | Facebook | Linkedin
CHECKTOBUILD is born because of the necessities that the construction sector presents nowadays. Considering only construction megaprojects, this sector is moving around 7 trillion $ a year.
And following their previsions, megaprojects are going to grow a 109% in the next 10 years. It is extremely huge.
So, it is absolutely incoherent that 1200 construction workers die a year only in the Qatar market. It is threatening that construction supervisor is the #9 most dangerous job in the world.
And also, it does not make sense that with this giant market, almost the 98% of the megaprojects in the world finish their tasks overbudget and overtime nowadays. To help construction projects, their designing and planification are increasing the adoption of the BIM methodology.
The Building Information Modeling is revolutionizing the construction sector and it is planned to be used in the 98% of the megaprojects in the next 5 years. So CHECKTOBUILD is born based in two fundamental pillars: These necessities that we have explained and the big opportunity that BIM represents.
CHECKTOBUILD is a construtech startup that provides an autonomous inspection service and business intelligence for big construction projects. We do it integrating BIM models, that the construction companies must develop, with IoT and drone`s sytems by a software platform.

To that end, SpectrumLab developed and is licensing the world’s first thermochromic coating applicable to outdoor surfaces such as roofs and façades. Such coatings turn white beyond a certain temperature, thus reflecting sunlight in summer and cooling the building, and turn black below said temperature, thus absorbing sunlight and warming the building.
This can save on average 15% energy in space heating and cooling every year!. .
