No tape measure. No laser. No second trip. Open the Jobsite Sentry app, point your phone at any wall, floor, opening, or distance on site, and get an instant AI-powered measurement in real time right on your screen.
Live Measurements AI is a feature in the Jobsite Sentry mobile app that uses your phone's camera and artificial intelligence to measure distances, dimensions, wall lengths, heights, areas, and perimeters on construction sites in real time, with no tape measure or additional hardware. You open the app, point your phone camera at what you want to measure, and an instant live readout appears on screen. Measurements can be saved, labeled, and exported directly from the field.
The Jobsite Sentry app puts AI-powered measurements in your pocket. Open the camera, point at what you need, and read the dimension instantly whether you're in a framing bay, a mechanical room, or out in the yard.
See the measurement update in real time as you move the camera. No tapping, no waiting the number appears the moment the AI locks onto an edge or surface.
The AI automatically identifies walls, openings, floors, and structural elements in the frame and overlays precise measurement lines no manual point selection needed in most cases.
Tap to lock the measurement. Add a label and a note, then save it straight to your Jobsite Sentry job record available in the portal and shareable with your team in seconds.
Your saved measurements can be exported as a PDF report with photos, labels, and timestamps for use in estimates, submittals, RFIs, or client documentation.
Live Measurements AI replaces the tape measure for every common field measuring task faster, more accurate, and saved automatically.
Check rough opening dimensions for doors and windows against the plan set without pulling a tape. The AI reads the opening width, height, and diagonal in one scan and flags any deviation from spec.
Walk into any room or space on site and capture all four walls, ceiling height, and floor area in under a minute. Export the full dimension set directly to your estimator without a second visit.
Verify clearance distances for HVAC units, electrical panels, and plumbing rough-ins against code requirements. Get the exact gap in real time and document it with a photo for your inspection package.
Measure slab thickness, footing dimensions, and setback distances from the camera before pour or after no physical contact with the surface required. Save a before-and-after record for your QC log.
Confirm structural element spacing and bay widths against your shop drawings in the field. Point the camera between two columns and read the center-to-center dimension without pulling a 30-foot tape alone.
Walk punch list items and capture deficiency dimensions gaps, reveals, alignments with a camera scan instead of a tape. Attach the AI measurement and photo directly to the punch list item and close it out on the spot.
No setup. No calibration target. No learning curve. Live Measurements AI works the moment you open the camera.
Launch the Jobsite Sentry app on your iOS or Android phone and tap the AI Tools icon on your dashboard. No login is needed if you're already signed in.
Select Live Measurements AI. Your phone camera activates in measurement mode the AI overlay appears on screen with targeting guides and edge detection active.
Aim your camera at the surface, wall, opening, or distance you need. The AI detects edges and surfaces and displays a live measurement on screen as you move updating in real time.
Tap to lock the reading. Label it, add a note, and save it to your job record. Export a PDF with all your measurements or share directly from the app to your team or PM.
One feature handles every common field measurement scenario from a single distance to a full room area calculation.
Measure the distance between any two points walls, columns, anchor bolts, equipment edges. Works at short range (inches) up to 30+ feet.
Measure ceiling heights, wall heights, parapet elevations, or the height of any vertical surface. Particularly useful in tight or hard-to-reach spaces where physical measurement is difficult.
Scan a floor, wall, or ceiling plane and the AI calculates the total area automatically. Useful for flooring, painting, waterproofing, and insulation take-offs from the field.
Capture the full perimeter of a room, slab edge, or structural opening in one scan. Useful for trim take-offs, waterproof membrane quantities, and sealant runs.
Scan any door, window, or structural opening and get the full three-number set width, height, and diagonal in one capture. Compare instantly to your plan specs.
Capture multiple measurements in a single session and group them into a layout. Useful for pre-estimate site walks, room documentation, or MEP rough-in verification.
Use Live Measurements to verify lumber dimensions and stack locations on site, then let Lumber Counting AI monitor those zones 24/7 from your existing cameras. Together, they give you a complete picture of your site inventory what's there, where it is, and how much of it you have.
