Description
Stonewell analyzes smartphone photos of building facades, bridges, and foundations to detect and measure structural cracks over time, flagging developing issues an inspector might otherwise catch too late. Used by two regional infrastructure inspection firms.
Problem
Structural inspections rely on manual visual review that's inconsistent between inspectors and rarely tracks how a crack changes over time.
Solution
A vision model that measures crack dimensions from ordinary photos and tracks change across repeated inspections, standardizing what's usually a subjective visual call.
Target market
Structural inspection firms and municipal infrastructure agencies.
Business model
Per-inspection software licensing fee.

Diego Fernandez
Tracking crack progression over time instead of one-off visual calls is a genuinely useful upgrade.
