Intelligent software platform
Coming Q3 2026Sentinel OS Vela.
Sentinel OS is our intelligent software platform. From rugged and reliable timelapse, to an enterprise intelligence solution built for compliance, health and safety, and enterprise-scale project oversight.
The platform
Sentinel OS is the intelligent software platform that turns images into evidence, intel, and story.
Every Buildcam is a sentinel. It keeps watch over your site, day and night, through every season, gathering a continuous record no round of site visits could match. A record with thousands of frames, each with a story waiting to be told.
Sentinel OS is our intelligence layer that assembles images on a timeline, builds timelapse sequences from the running capture, and, using our new Time Portal feature, lets you look back in time between any two dates in any part of the frame to see exactly what's changed. Our Timelapse Studio produces professional-quality, shareable videos without ever having to open a program. For sites that need eyes on the ground in real time, a live view sits alongside your recorded history.
Control your access to the people that need it. You decide who sees which project, from the site team to your head office to a client or an external third party. Each has their own view. Every frame stays in one place, time-stamped and exportable, so the record is always there when it's needed. Instant intel while the project runs, and a story when it's done.
Features
The most significant platform update in our company's history.
F/01 — MULTI-PROJECT DASHBOARD
One dashboard for
every site you run.
Run multiple projects simultaneously and see them all in one place. Status, latest frame, capture health, and storage at a glance. No per-project logins, no juggling.
- Single dashboard across all active projects.
- Health indicators: capture, connectivity, battery state per camera.
- Team roles: site, project, regional, and admin scopes.
- Archive on completion: projects move to read-only, retained indefinitely.
F/02 — TIMELAPSE STUDIO
Generate a timelapse for any range, any time.
Pick a project and a date range, hit generate. The platform compiles a polished timelapse video: branded, downloadable, ready for the client meeting, the bid, the handover.
- Day, week, month, full-project presets, or custom date ranges.
- Branded export: your logo, your colors, your title slate.
- Multiple resolutions: 1080p / 4K MP4, ready for any channel.
- Save and re-run: re-generate weekly without re-configuring.
- Scheduled delivery: set a cadence and finished timelapses arrive by email automatically.
F/03 — STAKEHOLDER MANAGEMENT
Send progress to anyone,
with the right access.
Share a single image, a date range, or a generated timelapse. Send to clients, councils, lenders, or insurers, with view-only access scoped to exactly what they need to see.
- Per-recipient permissions: view-only, download, or full project access.
- Scoped date ranges: share a milestone, not the whole project.
- Public links for marketing or council submissions, with optional expiry.
- Notification on access: see when stakeholders open the link.
Share reports
Send a single image, a date range, or a finished timelapse to any stakeholder.
View progress
A live, view-only window into the project for each stakeholder, scoped to the dates and cameras you choose.
Weekly project reports
Automatic progress summaries sent on a set cadence, so stakeholders stay current without you assembling an update.
F/04 — COMPARE TOOLS
Compare any two
moments in time.
Measure change over time from your chair. Compare any two dates across the frame, or reveal an earlier state beneath the present with an X-ray-style overlay. Time Portal is our flagship compare tool, with Site Comparison for a straight side-by-side.
- Time Portal: mask an area and drag it back through the project's history.
- Site Comparison: set two dates side by side across the full frame.
- Any interval: compare across a day, a phase, or the full build.
Time Portal
Pick any two moments in your project's timeline. Draw a mask over the area of interest and drag it around to see its historical context. Literally a portal into the past.
Site Comparison
Set two dates side by side and compare across the full frame, the quickest way to see what changed between two points in the build.
F/05 — SITE HISTORY
The complete record of your site, from day one.
Every frame every camera has captured, time-stamped and kept in one place. Scroll the full history, jump to any date, and export exactly what you need, from a single still to a whole phase.
- Complete archive: every capture from day one, retained for the life of the subscription.
- Jump to any date: scrub the timeline or enter a date to land on the frame.
- Filter by camera: narrow the history to a single vantage point.
- Export on demand: pull any frame or range in full resolution.
