Cintoo vs Cupix

Two cloud platforms that turn site capture into navigable 3D next to BIM, so this is partly like-for-like. Cintoo starts from terrestrial laser scans, converting point clouds to lightweight meshes with its patented TurboMesh, and adds a 360 Edition; Cupix starts from 360° video walks, turning them into measurable 3D maps over time, with SiteInsights for AI progress tracking. Desk research from vendor sites read Nov 2, 2026; no winner.

What it doesCloud, scanner-agnostic platform to upload, process, view and share large 3D laser-scan datasets (sample projects list Leica, Faro, Z+F and Trimble scanners). Patented TurboMesh converts point clouds to lightweight meshes for streaming. Editions: BIM (scan-to-BIM, design on as-built), Twin (assets plus CAD/BIM and enterprise data) and 360 (lightweight 360 video); navigation also lists Cintoo Workspace. Lists AI-powered classification of scan data, open SDKs and APIs, a VR experience on the Cintoo Streaming SDK and Unreal Engine, and an unlimited model (unlimited users and web access). The solutions menu covers progress tracking, design-issue checks, quality and compliance, asset management, remote collaboration and brownfield risk. Vendor states ISO 27001, SOC 2 and GDPR compliance (vendor claims). User counts and customer quotes are vendor content and are not used.4D digital twin platform whose "spatial AI" turns 360° video into measurable 3D models over time, plus a SiteInsights AI progress add-on. Customers use it to digitize sites, reduce visits, track changes and validate work, and it unifies laser scans, drone orthophotos and BIM; industries listed range from data centers, healthcare and airports to linear infrastructure, oil and gas, manufacturing, maritime and government. SiteInsights uses computer vision and geometry to detect changes between 360° captures against BIM and the schedule, needs a BIM model for automatic progress, filters by trade, level and work area, forecasts completion dates from the past rate of work, works with Oracle P6 and Microsoft Project, and takes 4-6 weeks to set up with the customer success team; its 4.0 release (Jun 2026) added an AI S-curve forecast and an Oracle Primavera Cloud integration. The menu also lists CupixField, AssetAtlas, Compass, Cupix MCP, BIM Deviation Analysis and Point Cloud pages. Its integrations heading names Procore, but the sentences under it list only BIM 360, Autodesk Forma or ACC, Revizto, Oracle and ArcGIS, so confirm the Procore connection with the vendor. The security page lists SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 and CSA STAR. The homepage served to us has carried placeholder text (noted only). ENR, site-count, active-user and case-study figures and quotes are vendor claims and are not used.

Where the vendor descriptions differ

  • Partly like-for-like: both put reality data and BIM in one cloud platform. Cintoo is scanner-agnostic (its sample projects list Leica, Faro, Z+F and Trimble scanners) and also takes lightweight 360 video in its 360 Edition. Cupix converts 360° video into 3D maps and says it also brings in laser scans, drone orthophotos and BIM.
  • Products: Cintoo lists BIM (scan-to-BIM, design on as-built), Twin (assets plus CAD/BIM and enterprise data) and 360 editions, plus Cintoo Workspace. Cupix's menu lists SiteInsights, CupixField, AssetAtlas, Compass, Cupix MCP, BIM deviation analysis and point cloud pages.
  • Progress tracking: Cupix SiteInsights compares site captures with schedules and BIM models, tracks completion by trade, work area or other metrics, forecasts output from production rates and works with Oracle P6 and Microsoft Project; Cupix says setup can take 4-6 weeks. Cintoo's solutions menu lists progress tracking alongside design-issue checks, quality and compliance, asset management, remote collaboration and brownfield risk.
  • AI and developer access: Cintoo lists AI-powered classification of scan data, open SDKs and APIs, and a VR experience on its Streaming SDK and Unreal Engine. Cupix describes AI that turns 360° video into 3D spaces you can measure, and lists Cupix MCP.
  • Security (vendor claims): Cintoo states ISO 27001, SOC 2 and GDPR compliance. Cupix states SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 and CSA STAR, and lists 360° video privacy protection.
  • Pricing (vendor pages read Nov 2, 2026): neither publishes prices. Cintoo has no pricing link, offers Request a Demo and a free 30-day trial, and describes an unlimited model (unlimited users and web access). Cupix's pricing link goes to a contact-sales page with a Start for free option for capturing a project; it says SiteInsights pricing depends on total project value, square footage and other factors.
  • Not used here: user counts, dataset sizes from sample projects, case-study figures and customer quotes (vendor material). Facts for both come from vendor websites (desk research).

What users say

The facts above come from vendor websites. Whether either tool is any good for your work is something only people who use them can say. These are member reviews, all ratings shown, never edited or removed for being negative.

Good or bad, an honest review from an estimator, PM or super helps the next team more than another vendor demo. You post under a handle; your email is never shown.

Questions to ask in your review

  • Whether your field capture is mostly terrestrial laser scans or 360° video walks, since each platform starts from a different one
  • How each handles your scan sizes, BIM models and schedule links on a live job
  • What did you use it for, on what kind of work and project size?
  • How long did setup and training take, and who on your team did it?
  • What does it cost you in practice, compared with what the sales call said?
  • Where does it fall short, and what would make you switch?
