EarthCam Expands AI-Powered Jobsite Intelligence for Retail Construction

< Previous

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

New York, March 9, 2026-- EarthCam, the leader in live camera technology, content and services, today announced new solutions for retail construction and facilities monitoring at the SPECS retail industry conference.

Designed for fast deployment on new store builds and renovations, EarthCam's wireless camera systems improve communication and accountability for stakeholders. By connecting project schedules with EarthCam live streams and AI analytics, AI Schedule Intelligence analyzes camera imagery to automatically confirm whether planned work is tracking on time. Real-time analytics, visual alerts, and searchable event timelines help teams stay informed without constant manual review or unnecessary site visits.

EarthCam aligns construction timelines with camera views of different areas of each build, so planned work can be verified by observed activity. For example, when the schedule specifies that brand signage should be in place on the storefront, EarthCam AI can automatically confirm when branding is in view, and report whether the task is completed early, late, or on time. AI processes imagery at scale, with weekly summary reports automatically delivered via EarthCam's Control Center software, along with visual documentation and timestamps.

"The partnership with EarthCam has definitely been extremely beneficial to the work my team does," said Gloria Samuel, Senior Vice President and Director of Construction Project Management at Fifth Third Bank. "The cameras have been a significant help in seeing properties evolve as projects are happening. Having visibility into the site has been game-changing for us."

EarthCam AI can identify thousands of different activities and jobsite scenarios using both server and edge analytics. For example, new AI models now identify specific boxes as they are delivered, verifying that expensive items are secure, and notifying subcontractors as necessary. This helps to prevent theft and to keep projects on schedule.

EarthCam's customer support, easy online procurement and integration with platforms like Procore, Autodesk Construction Cloud and Projectmates make it a trusted partner for retail construction teams. EarthCam offers interior and exterior camera rentals with project-based pricing, including installation and removal. High efficiency, solar-powered systems make it possible to live stream, archive and create time-lapse videos autonomously.

At SPECS, EarthCam is also demonstrating its all-inclusive security software platform for perimeter intrusion detection. Stakeholders receive automated alerts, while EarthCam's Command Watch24 (UL Listed, Five Diamond Central Station Monitoring) provides 24/7 incident review and response coordination.

EarthCam's Control Center is widely used for project documentation, marketing, safety and security, with mobile apps providing convenient access to visual data from the field.
