From today's
operations to
tomorrow'shumanoids.

dotspot turns POV capture from your best field workers into a structured index of how the work actually runs. It writes the SOPs and onboarding today, and feeds the world models behind tomorrow's industrial humanoids.

Why first-person video

First-person video of how work is actually done is going to become the most valuable data source for people who do physical work.

Marcus HornCEO & Co-founder

We have spent years building software for some of the world's most critical industries, so we know what it means to be trusted with the data behind an operation. Our job is to let industrial companies capture that footage safely and build real operational value on top of it. We take that seriously.

On the floor, it comes down to four things.

  • Seamless

    Nothing to learn.

    Put the glasses on and do the job. If capturing adds a step to the work, we have failed.

  • Value

    Useful from day one.

    Not a data project that pays off next year. The person wearing the camera gets something back from the first shift.

  • Trust

    Kept like the intellectual property it is.

    Encrypted, in the EU, under your control, and never used to train anyone else's models. What took your people years to learn stays yours.

  • Privacy

    Comfortable enough to keep talking about the weekend.

    If a camera makes people go quiet, it has already failed. Faces are blurred and you decide how long footage is kept.

What the footage turns into.

Recording is the easy part. The value is everything built on top of it, and it arrives in an order: first for the people, then for the operation, then for the machines that take the next shift.

For the people

  • Work instructions from the floorSOPs written from the operator who does it best, not from a binder.
  • Onboarding that shows instead of tellsA new hire watches the job done at their own station, by someone they will meet on Monday.
  • Answers in secondsAsk how the fixture on line 3 is aligned and get the clip, not a PDF.

For the operation

  • Evidence for quality and auditsPass/fail anchored in real examples. Inspection rounds become searchable proof.
  • Expert-versus-novice deltasSee exactly where the 30-year technician's hands differ from the new hire's, and coach on that.
  • Admin done by the recordingHandovers, maintenance tickets, escalations and SOP updates, triggered by what was captured.

For the machines

  • Coverage you can measureWhen every variation, edge case and QC checkpoint is captured, the task is ready to standardise, and ready to hand off.
  • A requirements memo for the robotWhat the task actually needs, written from your floor rather than a vendor's brochure.
  • Site-specific behaviourHumanoids that inherit your standards, because they learned from your people.

Physical AI has a local problem

General capability is arriving cheaply. The site-specific knowledge layer between it and your plant is the one nobody is building.

The advantage you can't buy later

Every site has a person everyone goes to. Collaborative advantage is making what they know belong to the whole organisation.

Your operation, queryable.

SEARCH YOUR FOOTAGE
HOW IT WORKS LIVE INDEX
  1. Capture: operators record tasks via POV glasses or phone — no forms, no second shift.
  2. Index: dotspot structures every capture into steps, tools, fixtures, QC checkpoints and hazards.
  3. Search: find any task, operator or note across all footage in seconds.
  4. Generate: export SOPs, onboarding packs, and robot feasibility memos from your own data.
  5. Automate: when coverage is complete, hand the task spec to a robot or humanoid. Ready when you are.

Every capture lands in your team's own video library — organised by job, newest first, and searchable like the web. New hires watch how the work is actually done instead of reading about it, and the search box above answers from the same footage.

Built for the industry that runs the world.

Every other player in the data-collection race is collecting for their own model. We collect for your plant, your warehouse, your asset — and the humanoid that will work next to your crew the year after.

Experience transfers. Site-specific knowledge doesn't.
Even experts spend 6+ months learning how a new site runs.

One cell, one shift, one line — then everywhere.

Assembly

Standardise steps and reduce variation across shifts. Capture the operator who does it best — replay it for the operator who's new.

Quality control

Define "what good looks like" with real examples. Pass/fail criteria anchored in footage, not in someone's memory of last quarter.

Machine tending

Track normal cycles and exceptions. The first task most customers hand off to a robot arm — because the coverage gets there first.

Work prep & changeovers

Setups, changeovers and readiness — documented from reality, not from the binder no one has opened since 2019.

Routine inspections

Turn checks into searchable evidence and audit trails. Regulators get what they want. Your inspectors get their afternoons back.

Privacy-by-design. Cyber-secure by default. Sovereign by deployment.

dotspot is built for real facilities. Your footage stays private, protected, and under your control — with the privacy options the floor actually needs so capture never gets in the way of the work.

Privacy

  • Faces blurred automatically
  • You choose how long footage is kept
  • Never used to train anyone else's models

Cybersecurity

  • Encrypted in transit and in storage
  • You decide who can see recordings & outputs

Sovereignty

  • Your data stays in the EU / Norway
  • On-prem, sovereign cloud or hybrid — your call
  • Export everything, anytime — it's yours

You know a task is automatable when dotspot says it is.

Every captured shift moves the needle. When variations, edge cases and QC checkpoints reach full coverage, the task is ready to standardise — and ready to hand to a robot.

Capture on the hardware your people already wear.

dotspot integrates with a range of capture systems — body-worn cameras, smartphones and smart glasses — so knowledge is recorded on whatever fits the task, the site and the people doing the work.

Axis Communications

We have chosen to integrate closely with Axis because their hardware matches our focus, and our customers' focus, on cybersecurity, privacy and user-friendliness.

  • Axis body-worn camerasOur closest integration: built with Axis as a Technology Integration Partner.
  • Other body-worn camerasWe integrate with other body-worn camera vendors too.
  • Smartphone appsCapture from the phone already in the pocket.
  • Smart glassesHands-free, first-person capture at eye level.

Humans first. Robotics second.

Every day, skilled people do work that no manual captures. We started dotspot to keep that knowledge where it belongs: with the people and companies who built it.
