Exodigo vs sizeless

Two AI tools for underground utility information, used at opposite ends of the dig. Not like-for-like (our reading): Exodigo maps utilities, foundations and ground conditions without breaking ground, combining records research, multi-sensor scanning, AI and its own engineers and geophysicists; sizeless documents pipes and house connections once the trench is open, from a smartphone video, so crews can backfill without a separate survey. Both are quote only. Desk research from vendor pages read Oct 29, 2026; not tested, no winner.

What it doesNon-intrusive subsurface intelligence for infrastructure: utilities, foundations and geotechnical conditions mapped without breaking ground. Four stages: Remote Data Intelligence (ExoInfo, which uses AI to connect utility records, as-builts, geotechnical reports, satellite imagery and permits), On-Site Reality Capture (multi-sensor scanning with AI analysis, plus targeted validation), AI Engineering (2D/3D mapping, digital twins and design deliverables), and Utility Relocation Services. Combines AI with engineers and geophysicists. Vendor cites $75B of de-risked infrastructure investment, 86.1M sq ft scanned, $200M+ in venture funding and 100+ customers (vendor claims), and announces the acquisition of California civil engineering firm V&A Inc. Re-checked Oct 19, 2026 (homepage read in a headless browser; a plain fetch returned 429): the four stages are unchanged; the AI Engineering stage now lists 2D-to-3D transformation, design validation, utility design and HDD design, and utility relocation services cover cost estimation and coordination. Customer outcome figures on the homepage are vendor claims and are not repeated here. Re-checked Oct 21, 2026: homepage unchanged in substance (four stages: Remote Data Intelligence with ExoInfo, On-Site Reality Capture covering utility, foundation and geotech mapping and targeted validation, AI Engineering, and Utility Relocation Services); the V&A Inc. acquisition announcement is still shown.

The site and FAQ (read Oct 18, 2026) say capture uses an iPhone Pro or iPad Pro with its SiteScan app (Android is on the roadmap) and list AI-based use cases including automatic detection of pipes and utilities, material detection and condition assessment. Data is processed and stored in Germany and Switzerland, customer data is not used to train AI models, and SOC 2 and ISO 27001 work is described as in progress (vendor statements). Accuracy (sub-centimeter in practice per the FAQ) and turnaround figures are vendor claims, not verified. Y Combinator batch: Summer 2023 (YC company profile). Re-read Oct 19, 2026: the homepage adds that documentation is available in about 72 hours, capture works without GPS in basement areas, the point-cloud algorithms were developed at ETH Zurich, and the company was founded by engineers from ETH Zurich and UC Berkeley; it lists ISO 27001 certification as in progress and data stored in the EU (vendor statements). Re-checked Oct 20, 2026: homepage and FAQ unchanged in substance (iPhone Pro capture with SiteScan, 3D point cloud, DWG/DXF as-built, GIS-ready exports, data processed and stored in Germany and Switzerland, no training on customer data). The FAQ adds that the same workflow covers district heating, water, gas and fiber house connections and lists building-side uses such as an automated heat load calculation for heat pump installs. Re-checked Oct 22, 2026: homepage and FAQ unchanged in substance (iPhone Pro scanning, 3D point cloud, DWG/DXF/PDF and IFC/RVT deliverables, EU data hosting, GDPR, no training on customer data, ISO 27001 in progress).

Who it's forOwners, designers and contractors on infrastructure projects with utility conflicts: transportation, transit, water and energy.Network operators, civil engineering and pipeline contractors and utilities that document trenches and house connections (district heating, water, gas, fiber), plus energy planners on the building side.

Where the vendor descriptions differ

  • When each is used: Exodigo works before excavation, during planning and design, to show what is below a site before ground is broken. sizeless works while the trench or house connection is open, recording the new or exposed pipe route and house entries before backfill (vendor statements).
  • How the data is captured: Exodigo describes four stages: Remote Data Intelligence (ExoInfo, which uses AI to connect utility records, as-builts, geotechnical reports, satellite imagery and permits), On-Site Reality Capture (non-intrusive multi-sensor scanning with AI analysis plus targeted validation), AI Engineering and Utility Relocation Services. sizeless capture is a guided video on an iPhone Pro in its SiteScan app, done by the crew already on site; the homepage says it works without GPS in basement areas.
  • What it produces: Exodigo lists 2D and 3D mapping, digital twins, 2D-to-3D transformation, design validation, utility design and HDD design, plus utility relocation cost estimation and coordination. sizeless produces a 3D point cloud, a 2D CAD as-built plan (DWG, DXF, PDF) and BIM/GIS-ready exports (IFC, RVT), with documentation in about 72 hours per its homepage; its FAQ lists AI-based detection of pipes and utilities, material detection and condition assessment.
  • Who does the work: Exodigo delivers the work itself, with its engineers and geophysicists alongside the AI. sizeless is used by the contractor's own technicians, and says no specialists or extra hardware are needed (vendor statement).
  • Who it is for: Exodigo names owners, designers and contractors on transportation, transit, water and energy projects with utility conflicts. sizeless names network operators, civil engineering and pipeline contractors and utilities documenting district heating, water, gas and fiber house connections.
  • Pricing (checked Oct 29, 2026): neither publishes prices. Exodigo routes to Get in Touch and its /pricing page returns not found. The sizeless FAQ says pricing depends on project scope, data volume and deliverables, with an individualized offer. See each tool page for detail.
  • Not used here: Exodigo's investment, area-scanned, funding and customer counters, customer ROI and savings figures and strike statistics, and sizeless accuracy figures (vendor material). Neither tool has been tested by Means & Methods Lab.

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 sizeless as-builts can be fed back into Exodigo-style utility maps on a later project
  • How either is priced for a single corridor or a few hundred house connections
  • 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?
