Introduction to Preimage

Preimage helps teams capture sites, review conditions in 3D, and track work over time. Upload a 360° video, drone photographs, or a supported point cloud, then select the outputs you need.

What you can do

  • Review a site remotely: explore virtual tours, point clouds, and immersive Gaussian Splat scenes in the browser.
  • Compare site records: view aligned scans from different dates or compare captured conditions with a floorplan or BIM model.
  • Measure and inspect: use distance, area, angle, height-profile, and point cloud section tools. Measurement accuracy is 2–3 cm with suitable capture quality, scale, and calibration.
  • Record observations: add annotations, attachments, assignees, and statuses to locations in a scan.
  • Create deliverables: request the available automated BIM, floorplan, progress, mapping, or service outputs for your workflow.

Tools and deliverables depend on your workspace, plan, and selected outputs.

Delivery times

Automated outputs are delivered within 3 hours after upload is complete. These include point clouds, Gaussian Splats, virtual tours, automated BIM, and automated progress outputs. Service outputs take 1–2 days on average. Confirm the scope of any service deliverable when requesting it.
