Partnership combines Optelos’ drone roofing inspection platform, Imagine Technologies’ turnkey services and training and Cotney’s industry-leading consulting services to reduce roofing assessment cost and drive new revenue

 

Austin, TX, September 29, 2021– Optelos, Image Technologies and Cotney have come to together to bring the latest roofing inspection technology to the commercial roofing industry, enabling commercial roofing contractors, property managers and material manufactures to more rapidly and accurately perform drone roof inspections. The solution is centered around Optelos’ visual inspection platform and drone captured data to produce high resolution images and 2D and 3D models allowing detailed roof assessments to be performed in a fraction of the time with more accuracy and at a fraction of the cost of the traditional “boots on the roof” approach.  The Optelos platform also produces high quality assessment reports allowing for more accurate costing and improved deliverables to clients.  Clients can also gain access to the Optelos platform through their contractor, enabling better client engagement, leading to increased revenue and longevity with the client.

In announcing the partnership, David Tran, Optelos CEO, noted, “We’re delighted to be able to provide the industry-leading visual data management and analysis capability of Optelos to the commercial roofing industry. Because Optelos both organizes and transforms images from drones, cell phones and other devices into easily usable and shareable data that can be used to perform detailed assessments, it allows commercial roofing contractors to reduce costs, increase revenue and improve the safety of their workforce.” 

Through this partnership Cotney, the recognized leader in commercial roofing business best practices, ensures that the Optelos solution delivers high value to commercial roofing contractors, general contractors, property owners and property managers.  The platform provides unique insights into the conditions of their roofs, as well as assists in the planning and inventory management of new roofing construction and repair projects.  The combination of Optelos’ visual data management capabilities, interactive site diagrams, comprehensive 2D and 3D models, highly accurate measurement tools and integrated AI workflows, combined with Cotney’s commercial roofing consulting experience, creates a breakthrough solution for the industry.
