Robots and AI for building digitisation.
Synoptic is a Zürich-based robotics and AI company. We turn a building scan into a millimetre-precise, BIM-ready 3D model in hours instead of weeks, at a fraction of today’s cost.
What we do
Renovation surveying is the bottleneck blocking Europe’s renovation wave: producing an as-built BIM model of an existing building still takes specialists, expensive scanners and days of manual modelling. We automate that end to end, from autonomous scanning through AI reconstruction to BIM-ready output, so professionals get accurate models without the cost and wait.
Scan
Capture a site with our robot platform, a phone, or your own LiDAR.
Reconstruct
Object-centred AI turns the point cloud into a parametric model.
Deliver
Export BIM-ready models straight into your tools.
