Inspection Software for Engineering & Building Science
Capture buildings and structures with drones or Lidar, build a measurable 3D model, quantify defects with AI, and issue reports your clients can open in a browser — so your team wins more bids and allows your senior engineers to do more targeted hands-on inspections.
Win more work without adding headcount
Engineering and building science firms are asked to assess more of the envelope, turn reports around faster, and defend every finding. Hammer Missions lets a structural engineer, building envelope consultant, or restoration engineer capture an asset once and work the whole inspection from a 3D model. You bid competitively, deliver in days instead of weeks, and put more projects through each engineer without stretching the team.
Document 100% of the envelope, not a sample
A visual check from the ground typically covers a fraction of a facade or roof. Drone capture documents close to 100% of the exterior at consistent resolution, so findings that would be missed from grade are recorded and located. When hands-on access is still required, the model shows exactly where to send rope access or a lift, so drops are targeted rather than speculative.
Findings that survive challenge
Every AI detection, measurement, and annotation sits on the model in its true location. When a finding is questioned, you show where it is, how large it is, and when it was captured. The engineer of record stays the author of every call; the software supplies the evidence behind it.
One record for interiors too
For enclosed spaces such as parking structures, capture with the XGRIDS PortalCam handheld Lidar and analyze in the same platform. Exterior work stays with drones; interiors use Lidar. Both solutions utilize the same AI and generate defensible reports.
A deliverable that distinguishes your firm
Instead of a flat PDF, you hand the client a report that links to a 3D model anyone can open in a browser. Give your clients a more thorough and modern service, which is faster to produce, and reduce the back-and-forth that eats at your margins.
How it Works
Step 1:
Capture
Capture the asset with a DJI or Skydio drone (exteriors) or the XGRIDS PortalCam (interiors), using your own pilot or a capture partner.
Step 2:
Build the model
Upload to Hammer Hub; the platform processes imagery into a 2D orthomosaic and a navigable 3D model.
Step 3:
Analyze and report
AI detects and quantifies defects; you review, annotate, and issue a PDF report that links to the live 3D model.

"Manually documenting and quantifying the facade deficiencies would've been nearly impossible without Hammer Missions. These tools, combined with engineering principles and careful review, have provided a baseline for saving and repurposing this landmark building"
