Advanced factories
Coordinate every trade in one AR view, right in the field.
Run multi-trade coordination in the field with every discipline in one AR view, and resolve conflicts during install.
Argyle is an augmented reality platform for construction that overlays coordinated BIM models on the jobsite so teams can verify installs, log spatial observations, and share field data in real time.

The problem
Install errors surface late, when they cost the most to fix.
By the time a misaligned install is discovered, it's buried behind drywall, encased in concrete, or already commissioned. By then, every downstream trade has to move to correct it.
- Inspections happen after close-in, when correction is most expensive
- Field deviations from the model go undocumented until handover
- Operations inherits a model that does not match what was built
Argyle moves verification to the moment of install, so issues get resolved while they are still small.
Use cases
Where Argyle fits on an advanced factory project.
Argyle puts the coordinated model in front of VDC, QA/QC, and field teams, so complex installations are verified before they're finalized. Explore the full Argyle platform and more use cases.
Multi-trade coordination
See every discipline in one AR view. Run multi-trade coordination in the field. Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing, overlaid in context, in the ceiling, on the wall. Catch conflicts during install.
GCs and owner's reps, VDC
Installation verification
Ensure systems are installed exactly as designed. Bring complex models into the field and verify positioning of systems during installation. Confirm alignment and placement before work is finalized, reducing costly errors in high-precision environments.
Field engineers, installation teams
Prefabrication and coordination
Build with confidence before materials hit site. Validate prefabricated assemblies against real-world conditions before installation. Improve coordination across trades and reduce field adjustments when assemblies arrive on site.
Prefab teams, VDC, project managers
Retrofit and existing conditions
Understand complex environments before making changes. Overlay models onto existing conditions to plan modifications, retrofits, or expansions. Identify conflicts early and reduce uncertainty in live operational environments.
Engineers, retrofit teams
Observations
Drop geo-anchored notes, photos, and markup directly in AR space. Pin each observation to the exact location it describes, with a status your team can track as New or In Progress in the web portal.
Field foremen, QA/QC
Live stream to the office
Give remote teams real visibility into site conditions. Share what the device sees so engineering and management can join the call and look at the same install. Reduce miscommunication and accelerate decision-making across locations.

How it works
Three steps to a verified install.
Argyle fits into the workflow your VDC and field teams already run.
Upload your model
Export from Revit or Navisworks, or sync from ACC. Your model arrives with hierarchy, phases, and properties intact.
Align to the jobsite
Open Argyle on iPad or iPhone and anchor the model to the physical space. The model overlays the real structure at full scale.
Walk and verify
Inspect installs against design in AR and log observations in place. Verification status and observations reach the office in real time.

What VDC teams are saying
“Once we started getting the PMs and the executives to see the videos and see how quickly we could find things, they were like 'we need to get this everywhere'. This is the first AR technology I've ever been shown that I immediately understood and can immediately see the value in.”

FAQ
Argyle for advanced factories: common questions
How does Argyle help on advanced factory projects?
Argyle overlays the coordinated BIM model on the jobsite in AR, so every discipline is visible in one view and teams can resolve conflicts during install. Field deviations are logged as observations and reach the office in real time.
Can Argyle be used for retrofits and expansions?
Yes. Teams overlay models onto existing conditions to plan modifications, retrofits, or expansions, and identify conflicts early in live operational environments.
Which devices does Argyle run on?
Argyle field apps run on iPad and iPhone. The office manages projects, models, observations, and users in the Argyle web portal.
Which model formats does Argyle support?
Export your model from Revit or Navisworks, or sync it from Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC). The model arrives with hierarchy, phases, and properties intact.
Is Argyle secure?
Argyle is SOC 2 compliant.
