Construction timelapse
Timelapse.
Installed anywhere.
From our bespoke rapid-deployment tower to fence clamps, staircase mounts and your existing poles or masts — a professional camera watching your site within minutes of arrival, wherever the best view is.

The Rapid Tower
Built by us,
for sites like yours
Rapid — our bespoke tower — arrives as one self-contained piece of plant: integrated outriggers for instant stability, a wind-able telescopic mast, and an onboard solar array that keeps it running for the life of the programme.
- Self-delivered and dropped at any site, any location
- Pushable by us, liftable by you — factory lifting points for forklift or crane
- Solar powered with 4G uplink — genuinely off-grid
- Relocated around the site as the build moves
Not just the tower
Rapid is one of four ways we mount. Bespoke clamps fit any perimeter fence, staircase brackets climb with the build, and we'll happily use your existing poles or masts.
Two ways we run it
From a single pour
to a seven-year programme
Short-term timelapse
0–6 hours
Operator-attended capture for the days that matter: concrete pours, crane and tandem lifts, bridge beams, road possessions and plant moves. We arrive, rig, capture the whole operation and leave with it in the can.
- Ground and aerial hyperlapse in one visit
- Critical lifts and pours documented end to end
- Edited cutdown delivered the same week
- Shot on URSA Mini 12K — enormous frames, endlessly reframeable in the edit
Long-term timelapse
6 hours – 7 years
The tower takes over: installed once and left to work, capturing every daylight hour of the programme unattended — through winters, phase changes and everything the site throws at it, from groundworks to handover.
- Solar powered — runs for years without site power
- Live portal access for the whole project team
- Monthly edits plus the full end-of-project film
More than a camera
Your whole site,
in your pocket
The tower is the hardware. What you actually buy is what it does for the programme.
Stage 01
Live portal access
Watch the build from anywhere
Live feeds and every captured frame, available the moment they're taken, through a cloud portal that works on any smart device. Site progress meetings stop being arguments about what happened — the record is right there.
- Live view and full image archive, 24/7
- Before-and-after comparison tools
- Share access with the client and the project team
Stage 02
AI safety overlays
A camera that watches out for the site
Optional AI overlays automatically detect and visualise PPE compliance, safety distances, exclusion zones and risk areas — turning the timelapse system into a live safety tool that helps prevent incidents rather than just record them.
- PPE compliance detection
- Exclusion zone and safety distance monitoring
- Intelligent insights for site safety reviews
AI overlays are an optional extra, scoped and priced per project.
Stage 03
Remote monitoring
Progress tracking and stock management
The same cameras double as a remote monitoring tool: visual progress tracking against programme, stocktake assistance, and easy before-and-after comparisons that streamline operations and cut errors — without another site visit.
- Visual progress records against programme
- Stocktake and materials monitoring
- Timestamped evidence for claims and disputes
Where it earns its keep
Built for the toughest
sites in the industry
Construction
Progress, evidence, transparency and accountability — a frame-by-frame record from groundworks to handover, and a marketing film at the end of it.
Civils & infrastructure
Long programmes, remote compounds, no power — exactly what the solar tower was engineered for. Precision and endurance over months and years.
Demolition
Controlled deconstruction documented safely from outside the exclusion zone — the transformation captured, the method evidenced.
