The building site, moved to the cloud - defects, plans, inspections and reports on every phone and tablet on the job.
Construction is one of the world's largest industries and one of its least digitized. Sites still run on paper checklists, printed drawings and phone-tag between the office and the field - and every missed note becomes a dispute about who was responsible. In 2013, a Vienna construction project manager named Domagoj Dolinsek decided the paperwork itself was the problem worth solving.
The company he helped start with four co-founders launched under the plain-spoken name DefectRadar. Its first job was narrow: track building defects. A worker could stand on site, tap a spot on a digital plan, drop a ticket with a photo, a note or a voice memo, and assign it to whoever needed to fix it. Everyone saw the same record. The argument became a timestamp.
That single feature - the pinned, evidenced, assignable ticket - is still the heart of the product a decade later. What changed is how far it reaches: from defect logging into inspections, BIM models, facility management and, most recently, AI-generated reporting. Today PlanRadar counts more than 170,000 users across 75+ countries, logging over 100,000 project actions a day.
PlanRadar is a ticket-based documentation and communication platform for construction and real estate. Teams upload 2D plans and 3D BIM models, then pin tasks and defects directly onto them. Each ticket can carry photos, video, text and voice notes captured on a phone, and is routed to the responsible person, who is notified automatically.
The apps run on iOS, Android and the web, and work on site where connectivity is thin. Reports and audit trails generate on demand, giving owners, contractors and inspectors a single source of truth across the building lifecycle.
Construction runs on documentation - and when that documentation lives on paper and in inboxes, it fragments. Defects slip, inspections go unrecorded, and disputes over liability drag out for months.
PlanRadar's answer is to make the record automatic and shared. Every action is timestamped, evidenced and visible to the right people, which shortens approvals, reduces rework, and turns finger-pointing into a documented history everyone can trust.
We make working together easier.
Pin tickets to plans and BIM models with photo, video, text and voice; auto-assign and notify the responsible party.
Digital site diaries, checklists, QA, health, safety and fire-safety compliance, and technical inspections on mobile.
Upload, version and annotate 2D plans and 3D BIM models; navigate models on site and link tickets to elements.
Auto-generated, customizable reports and dashboards for project transparency and audit trails.
Recurrent maintenance, repairs, asset and building-operations management for the post-construction lifecycle.
360-degree reality capture mapped onto plans, plus AI that drafts reports and extracts insights from site data.
PlanRadar plays in a crowded field of construction and field-management platforms. Its edge is an interface simple enough for non-technical site crews, deep localization across 20+ languages, and GDPR-native operation - positioning it between heavyweight enterprise suites and lighter single-purpose apps.
Where enterprise suites can overwhelm smaller teams with cost and complexity, PlanRadar is designed to be picked up by anyone on site with minimal training. It works offline, in the local language, on modest hardware - and scales from a solo architect to a multinational developer.
That breadth across the lifecycle - construction, then facility management - lets customers keep one platform from groundbreaking through building operations.
PlanRadar sells tiered per-user monthly subscriptions - Basic, Starter and Pro - to organizations of every size. Higher tiers unlock BIM integration, advanced reporting and enterprise security.
Revenue scales with seats, projects and premium features. Estimated annual revenue is around $32M, supported by more than $100M in venture funding.
Site teams tracking defects, snagging and daily progress across active jobs.
Design and inspection teams annotating plans and BIM models and running QA.
Owners and developers demanding transparency and audit trails on large projects.
Operators handling maintenance, repairs and asset management post-handover.
In total, more than 170,000 users in 75+ countries rely on PlanRadar, spanning private industry and government bodies, and logging over 100,000 project actions every day.
