Technology Corner Series Smartvid.io: Reduce Jobsite Risk with the Power of AI

Aon Technology Profile Webinar

Low productivity and a low digitization rate have sparked an influx of new technology being developed, which has the potential to make a profound impact on the risks involved on construction projects and within asset management such as safety risk and design risk. Aon understands that this trend may be of interest to our clients and has created the Technology Corner to profile different construction technology and asset management companies. Each profile gives an overview of the technology, addresses its risk treatment potential, and identifies what insurance policies its implementation could impact. Our goal is multi-faceted to raise awareness about leading construction and asset management technologies that could help reduce risk on site for the purposes of educating our clients and the insurance markets.

Mike Perozek, Vice President of Sales & Marketing from Smartvid.io will be presenting

Safety continues to be a top priority in managing human and financial risks in the construction industry. Yet, companies today are operating with limited expert safety resources while managing increasingly large and complex projects.

Over the past 10 years, industry adoption of construction management software, mobile devices, and purpose-built mobile apps has helped improve efficiency of many field processes. Now every field engineer uses a smartphone on the jobsite. In turn, the number of field observations and photos has exploded, introducing new challenges to effectively access, share, and understand the data as well as an awesome opportunity to improve visibility to jobsite practices and safety behaviors.

Smartvid.io is a software company whose technology acts like a virtual safety inspector, giving general contractors more "eyes on site" and remote visibility to safety practices and behaviors across all their jobsites. Smartvid.io is using artificial intelligence (AI) to automatically detect safety hazards in the visual data from jobsites. Smartvid.io’s AI engine, nicknamed "Vinnie," can see workers wearing PPE (or not), and other risks such as housekeeping, different types of ladders, scaffolding, and mobile equipment.

Join Mike Perozek from Smartvid.io to learn how Smartvid.io makes it easy to aggregate photo data from every job, measure and monitor risk trends such as gloves compliance rates, and use Vinnie’s automatic observations to drive corrective actions on identified risks, build a positive safety culture, and ultimately minimize losses.

Join us on Wednesday, November 28th at 11 a.m. ET.
