Site record

An independent record of who was on site, and what was done.

Holding a subcontractor to account is hard when the only record of the day is a site diary and the memory of whoever was standing there. Was the work done when it was claimed? Did the crew turn up? Was the sequence followed. When accounts differ, there is rarely anything solid to settle it, and the argument comes down to who is more certain.

Buildcam removes the guesswork. A solar-powered, 4G-connected camera captures the site on a timestamped timelapse, building a continuous visual record that runs on its own. Every frame is dated and logged in Sentinel OS, so completed works, deliveries, and site conditions are documented as they happen rather than reconstructed after the fact. The record does not depend on self-reporting: it shows what took place, regardless of what was written up.

When a question arises, the answer is already on file. Pull the footage for a given day, confirm the work against the timeline, and share it with the relevant parties through role-based access. Exportable footage carries its metadata with it, so the same record supports progress claims, payment certification, and dispute resolution. Most disagreements resolve the moment there is something objective to look at.

How it works

An independent record that runs without you.

01

Buildcam captures site activity continuously

Every 10 minutes, a 24MP image is logged with a timestamp. Works completed, materials delivered, and site conditions are recorded automatically without relying on subcontractor reporting.

02

Sentinel OS builds a searchable timeline

Every image is indexed by date and time in your project archive. When a dispute arises, you can pull the visual record for any day, any period, and share a link with the relevant parties.

03

Share access with the right people

Role-based permissions in Sentinel OS let you give subcontractors, PMs, and clients access to specific date ranges or camera views without exposing the full project record.

What you get

Stop managing subcontractors on trust.

Time-stamped visual evidence

Every image is dated and logged. No more relying on site diaries or conflicting recollections.

Independent from subcontractor reporting

The camera records what happened, regardless of what was reported. You have an objective reference.

Works verification at a glance

Check that specific tasks were completed on the day claimed. Use the timeline to confirm scope.

Dispute resolution without the dispute

When issues arise, share a dated video clip or image sequence. Most disagreements resolve quickly.

No extra site visits

Verify activity remotely from Sentinel OS. Save the site visit for when it actually matters.

Works across all subcontract packages

Civil, structural, mechanical, electrical. One camera covers the site regardless of who is working.

Contractor accountability

Questions about proving who did what, and when.

The ones that come up most on accountability and site records. The full FAQ lives in Resources.

Buildcam captures the site on a fixed schedule from day one, and every frame carries a timestamp. That gives you an independent visual record of works as they happened, rather than a version reconstructed later from memory or a site diary. When you need to confirm what took place on a given day, the footage is already there.
Yes. Because each image is dated and logged, you can pull the record for the day in question and see the state of the works for yourself. A timestamped frame is an objective reference that does not depend on anyone's recollection, which is usually enough to close a disagreement quickly.
The project archive in Sentinel OS is indexed by date and time. Enter the relevant period and the frames for that window come up, so there is no trawling through email threads or unsorted photo albums. You can then share what you need with the parties involved.
No. The camera runs unattended and captures whatever happens in front of it, independent of what anyone reports. That gives you a reference point you can check against progress claims, milestone sign-offs, and requests for payment.
Yes. Role-based access in Sentinel OS lets you share specific date ranges or camera views with the people who need them, while keeping the rest of the project record private. A subcontractor can see the footage relevant to their package without seeing everything else on site.
A single Buildcam covers the area within its field of view regardless of which trade is working. Civil, structural, mechanical, and electrical activity within that view is all captured on the same continuous timeline, so accountability is not tied to a particular package.
Buildcam is solar powered and connects over 4G or LTE cellular, so it can run in locations without grid power or fixed network access. That keeps the capture schedule uninterrupted through the life of the project, which is what makes the archive dependable when you need to rely on it.
Yes. Footage is exportable from Sentinel OS with its metadata intact, so the timestamps travel with the frames. That lets you attach a dated visual record to a payment certification, a variation, or a formal dispute without losing the detail that makes it credible.
