How it works

Read the site. Record what it shows.

Pikt gives risk engineers continuous visibility of the projects they oversee. It sits between the technology already running on site and the systems the market already runs on - feeding them verified site data, never replacing them. No new hardware: we read what is already there, with the insured's permission, and record it with its source, scope and timestamp.

The method

Five steps from appointment to a continuous record.

Connection is quick, and once a risk is connected everything after it runs continuously and on its own.

01 · START

Book a walkthrough

Tell us about the project and we will show you what Pikt would record on it. From there you get access to the customer portal, where risks are submitted and connected sites are managed. No cost, and no commitment to connect a risk.

02 · SUBMIT

Submit the risk

Enter the project details in the portal. Pikt matches them against the construction technology known to be deployed on the relevant sites - cameras, capture platforms, drone surveys, IoT and HSE systems - and tells you what can be read.

03 · CONNECT

Connect, with permission

With the insured's explicit consent, Pikt connects to the platforms already in use through their own access controls. Consent is recorded with the exact wording shown and the scope of data agreed. Nothing is read before permission is granted.

04 · READ

Read the site continuously

Pikt reads the connected sources continuously and records them against the parameters you set: progress, water, weather, environmental readings, safety logs and change. When a reading crosses a threshold you defined, it surfaces as a signal rather than waiting for the next survey. Changes since the last visit are flagged, so a survey starts from evidence rather than assembly.

05 · RECORD

Record it, with provenance

Every reading is timestamped and retained as an evidenced record. Risk engineers brief from it, and if a loss occurs the pre- and post-loss record is already there - at the touch of a button, with the chain of custody intact.

Where Pikt sits

Between the site and the file.

Pikt is a system of observation, not the system of record - placing, policy and claims systems stay exactly where they are. On one side, the technology that already runs the build; on the other, the people who carry the risk. What Pikt holds is the evidence: a verified, time-stamped account of the site itself, feeding the systems the market already runs.

From footage to facts

Not a feed. A time-stamped record.

A camera produces footage. Pikt produces a structured, time-stamped record of what each source showed and when it showed it, with the source attached. We do not form an opinion on what it means; that call stays with you.

01 · Capture

Read the sources already on site

Pikt ingests from the platforms the project already runs - no new cameras, no site disruption. Each source is normalised into a consistent, time-aligned record of the same place over time.

  • Continuous visual records of conditions and progress
  • Drone orthomosaics and volumetric measurement
  • Room-by-room 360 walkthrough tracking
02 · Compare

Detect what changed since anyone last looked

You set the parameters; Pikt reads the change against them. It compares model to reality and yesterday to today, surfacing what has moved, what has slipped against the programme and what has changed since anyone last looked, instead of leaving it for the next physical survey.

  • Progress-versus-plan deviation detection
  • Progress against programme, week on week
  • Water, environmental and safety thresholds
03 · Record

Keep the evidence, not just the picture

Every reading is retained with its timestamp, source and scope of consent. The record exists before anything goes wrong, so the question "what did the site look like on the day?" always has an answer.

  • Timestamped, source-attributed, tamper-evident
  • Pre- and post-loss site data on demand
  • Exportable to the file, with source and timestamp attached
Permission & data

Read with consent. Held with care.

Pikt only ever reads what the insured has agreed to share, through the platforms' own access controls. We record the data; we give no insurance advice.

Consent-first
Nothing is read before the insured grants scoped permission.
Scoped
Access is limited to the sources and sites agreed, and revocable.
Logged
Every connection and reading carries an audit trail.
Secure
Data security - encrypted in transit and at rest, access controlled and fully audited.
Common questions

Before you connect a risk.

Do we need to install anything on site?

No. Pikt reads the technology already deployed on the project - cameras, capture platforms, drone surveys, IoT and HSE systems. There is no new hardware and no disruption to the build.

Whose permission is needed to connect?

The insured's. Pikt connects through the platforms' own access controls, with consent recorded against the exact wording shown and the scope of data agreed. Access is revocable at any time.

What if a site only runs one or two of these systems?

That is the norm, and it is enough to start. When you submit a risk, Pikt reports exactly what can be read from the stack present. The picture gets richer as more sources connect, but value begins with the first.

How quickly is the record available after a loss?

The pre-loss record already exists, because the site is read continuously. Readings continue from the same sources afterwards, so the question of what stood on the site on a given date has an answer that was recorded at the time, not reconstructed later.

Does Pikt make risk or claims decisions?

No. Pikt records site and document data and presents it as evidence. Pikt flags what changed. The decisions - what it means, how to act, how to settle - stay with the professionals who carry the risk. We give no insurance advice.
