Case Study: Suffolk saves time and improves progress tracking with Smartvid.io

Saving time and improving results with Smartvid.io

Suffolk, a $3B construction firm known for “building smart,” needed a faster, more consistent way to document progress and milestones on complex projects like One Dalton in Boston. Its teams were spending 30–40 person hours per week manually taking photos, labeling them, and uploading records for project visibility and quality control. Suffolk worked with Smartvid.io, using its machine-learning-powered visual documentation capabilities integrated with Procore.

Smartvid.io helped Suffolk replace manual photo logging with daily narrated videos and photos that were automatically tagged and indexed using SmartTags, speech recognition, and image recognition. The integration pushed searchable descriptions directly into Procore, eliminating re-entry and making records easier to find and share. As a result, Suffolk cut progress tracking and milestone documentation time by over 60%, reducing manual effort from about 30 hours per week to 10 hours per week while creating a more comprehensive visual record.
