Eagleview, best known for its aerial imagery and AI-driven property intelligence, is giving its drone inspection platform a major lift. The company just announced new feature upgrades to Eagleview Assess™, aimed squarely at contractors, insurers, and property managers tackling complex, large-scale roofs—think churches, triplexes, and sprawling apartment buildings.
“We heard customers asking for commercial project support, and we’re delivering,” said Eagleview CEO Piers Dormeyer. The move is more than a product update; it’s a signal that drone-powered inspections are moving beyond residential rooftops into broader commercial real estate.
What’s New Under the (Drone-Inspected) Roof
Among the headline features:
- Multi-faceted roof capture: Now handles larger, more intricate roof structures with ease.
- Intuitive Test Squares: A hover-activated tool for moving, locking, and resizing squares—plus a new 5×20 dimension for long slopes.
- ‘Underwriting’ workflows: Tailored reports for insurance tasks outside of claims.
- Cleaner image management: Bulk “Select All” options and integrated facet overviews for faster, more organized reporting.
- High-resolution visuals: Goodbye blurry mosaics, hello crisp facet overviews with wireframes.
These upgrades aren’t just cosmetic. By adding anomaly counts, roof component tallies, and wireframe overlays, Eagleview is equipping contractors and insurers with richer, more actionable data.
AI at the Core
The enhancements ride on the back of improved AI training models that deliver sharper accuracy in damage detection—cutting down on false positives and costly callbacks. Workflows are faster, reports look sleeker with custom branding, and support for larger structures expands the platform’s potential in high-value commercial projects.
It’s a timely evolution. According to the Eagleview 2025 AI Impact and Adoption Survey, the two biggest pain points in property analysis are staff shortages and inefficient workflows. AI-powered drone inspections address both, offering scalable solutions in an industry where skilled labor remains tight.
Why It Matters
Drone-based property inspection is quickly becoming the norm in insurance and construction. Competitors like Hover and Kespry have made waves, but Eagleview’s focus on higher-res imagery, anomaly tracking, and commercial building support pushes the bar higher. The addition of underwriting-specific reports also suggests Eagleview is doubling down on its insurance clientele, giving carriers more reason to adopt drones over ladders.
