Company profile
researched Aug 2026Doxel develops automated construction progress tracking software that applies computer vision to imagery captured on jobsites. Customers provide their BIM model and schedule; a crew member walks the site wearing a hard-hat-mounted 360° camera, and Doxel's software analyzes the 4K video to measure work-in-place by component, system, trade, and construction stage. The resulting plan-versus-actual comparison is presented in a browser-based application with 3D model views, photo history, production-rate trends, schedule views, and earned-value/budget tracking, plus a portfolio-level view spanning multiple projects. Drone imagery can also be used to track earlier phases such as underground utilities and sitework.
The company positions the product as "physical intelligence" or observability for construction, targeting the prevention of delays, rework, trade stacking, and over-billing. Doxel states onboarding takes under two weeks and requires no additional VDC work from the customer team, and that the platform integrates with common construction tools including Primavera P6, Procore, and Autodesk. Reported customer outcomes include projects delivered on average 11% ahead of schedule, up to 16% savings on monthly cash flow, 95% less time spent tracking and communicating progress, and 99%+ accuracy in work-in-place reporting; Doxel also cites cases where its data corrected change orders and invoices above $300,000.
Doxel was founded in 2015 by Saurabh Ladha, who serves as CEO. The leadership team includes a VP of Sales, SVP of Product, VP of Engineering, Head of Operations, and SVP of Finance, with backgrounds spanning Arup, Rhumbix, Enlighted, Amazon, Credit Karma, and SuccessFactors/SAP. The company is backed by Insight Partners, Andreessen Horowitz, and Amplo.
Founding story
Saurabh Ladha founded Doxel in 2015 after observing how construction delays affect lives and livelihoods, applying an interest in cyber-physical systems to keeping project teams on track amid constant change. Ladha has been recognized by Forbes 30 Under 30 and the 2018 Goldman Sachs Top 100 Builders + Innovators Award, and guest-lectured on entrepreneurship at Stanford in 2019.
Business model
Doxel sells its progress-tracking platform as software to construction owners, developers, and contractors, with a browser-based application, defined onboarding, US-based support, and a published pricing/quote path on its website.
Software sold to construction organizations; the site offers demos and instant quotes based on customer requirements, indicating per-project or per-portfolio commercial packages.
Traction
Doxel cites more than 3 billion square feet of construction tracked, 100+ data center projects, 80+ healthcare projects, adoption by 18 of the top 30 GCs by volume and 14 of the top 20 data center developers, and $57 million in funding raised. Customer-reported uses include production forecasting, manpower scheduling, weekly production tracking, and executive reporting.
Latest developments
Doxel's current product set includes automatic progress tracking, a 3D progress view with inspect mode, reality capture with side-by-side photo history, production rates, a visual schedule powered by language models, drone-based tracking from sitework through buildout, and automated earned-value/budget tracking, together with a unified portfolio management view. The company reports $57 million raised and a leadership team that includes a recently added SVP of Finance who previously supported the company in a fractional role.

Market position
Doxel reports use by 18 of the top 30 general contractors by volume, 14 of the top 20 data center developers, 3 of the 4 hyperscalers, and 7 of the top 10 data center companies, with more than 3 billion square feet of construction tracked. Third-party commentary places it among construction progress-tracking and project-controls vendors alongside OpenSpace, Fieldwire, and Procore.
Doxel emphasizes capture that requires no change to field routine (a normal site walk with a hard-hat 360° camera rather than dedicated scanning), automated measurement of work-in-place down to component and construction-stage level across all trades, the DICE ontology for cross-project benchmarking of production rates, and setup within two weeks with no additional customer VDC effort.
Technology
Doxel has built a proprietary vision-based simultaneous localization and mapping (VSLAM) system that locates a 360° camera spatially within a building's BIM, allowing operators to walk any path while the software charts the route and extracts data from high-resolution 4K video. Machine learning models are trained to visually distinguish more than 85 stages of construction across trades, producing work-in-place quantities and percent-complete figures. Doxel's Integrated Construction Encyclopedia (DICE) is a hierarchical ontology of functional and structural object types (pipes, ducts, valves, walls), construction stages, and cumulative progress measures that lets the system generalize patterns across differing jobsites. A rules-of-credit engine converts field work into percent complete, and language models are used to map schedules to observed progress. BIM and schedule data are integrated so results can be sliced by zone, floor, trade, and system.
Go-to-market
Direct enterprise sales through a global team of account executives, revenue operations, and sales engineers, supported by demo requests and instant quoting on the website, sector-specific landing pages (for example data centers), customer case examples, and integrations with incumbent construction software.
General contractors, construction owners and developers, project executives, superintendents, and BIM/VDC teams, with focused offerings for data centers (hyperscalers and colocation builders), healthcare, and industrial projects such as EV battery factories. Named customer organizations include Layton Construction, Sundt Construction, DPR Construction, QTS Data Centers, and Scripps Health.
Geography
Support operations are based in the United States, and the customer base cited is largely US construction (including the two of the top three largest US EV battery factories); the sales organization is described as global.
History
Founded in 2015, Doxel raised seed and Series A financing with Andreessen Horowitz participating in each round, including an angel investment from Robinhood CEO Vladimir Tenev in the Series A. In August 2021 the company announced a $40 million Series B led by Insight Partners with participation from a16z and Amplo, bringing total capital raised to $56.5 million at that time; the company later reported $57 million raised. Doxel remained private as of 2026, with a product line that expanded from progress tracking into 3D progress views, reality capture, production rates, schedule, drone-based underground/sitework tracking, and budget/earned-value modules.
