3D Property Measurement from Smartphone Photos
AI-powered 3D property measurement and visualization platform from smartphone photos. San Francisco CA, raised $130M+, insurers and contractors.
Hover is an AI-powered property measurement and 3D visualization company that generates precise building measurements and a photorealistic 3D model of a property from a set of smartphone photos taken by walking around the structure, enabling insurance adjusters, roofing contractors, and exterior remodelers to get accurate measurements and visualize renovation options without manual measurement or ladder work. Founded in 2011 and headquartered in San Francisco, California, Hover has raised more than $130 million from investors including Google Ventures and has built partnerships with major insurance carriers and leading home improvement retailers and manufacturers. The company's technology converts standard smartphone photos into a dimensionally accurate 3D model within minutes.\n\nHover's measurement platform delivers roof measurements including area, pitch, and facet dimensions; wall measurements for siding and paint projects; window and door openings; and total exterior surface areas — all generated by AI from smartphone photos rather than requiring aerial imagery subscriptions or professional measurement tools. The 3D visualization capability allows homeowners and contractors to see virtual renderings of different roofing materials, siding colors, and exterior finishes on the actual property, enabling visual selling that has been shown to increase homeowner confidence in purchase decisions and average job values. Integration with contractor estimating software populates measurements automatically into estimates.\n\nHover competes with EagleView and Nearmap in the property measurement space, though Hover's smartphone-photo approach differs from aerial imagery in that it provides a more detailed 3D model and visualization capability. The company serves roofing, siding, and exterior remodeling contractors, insurance carriers for claims and underwriting, and home improvement product manufacturers and retailers seeking to drive product selection through visualization.
Adept AI raised $415M to pioneer computer-use AI agents; its core research and agent team moved to Amazon in 2024 in a landmark talent acquisition while the company continues developing ACT-1 for enterprise automation.
Adept AI was founded in 2022 by a team of former OpenAI, DeepMind, and Google Brain researchers to build AI that can take actions on computers — navigating software interfaces, filling forms, and executing multi-step workflows in any application. Its ACT-1 model demonstrated the ability to control web browsers and desktop applications through natural language instructions, pioneering the computer-use agent paradigm that Anthropic later commercialized with Claude's computer use feature.
