August 23, 2022 -- EarthCam, the global leader in live camera technology, content and services, today announced their partnership with Raken to make high-resolution live streaming video available within Raken’s construction management platform. More than 39,000 contractors use Raken worldwide to streamline project management and communication. This new collaboration provides live video data from EarthCam cameras for 24/7 insight on construction projects for safety, security and progress reporting.

“Partnering with EarthCam was an easy choice for Raken – we’re excited about the benefits our mutual customers will see with this new integration,” said Ty Kalklosch, CEO at Raken. “By integrating EarthCam’s live feed of project sites with Raken’s dynamic field reporting, customers can minimize travel to jobsites, significantly enhance their ability to recall historical project data, and have a more complete understanding of all jobsite activities.”

“Raken and EarthCam are aligned in their strategy to deliver unique, actionable visual data to benefit the construction industry,” said Brian Cury, CEO and Founder of EarthCam. “With our easy-to-use embeddable app, back-office Raken users can now gain valuable insight to validate information from field reports in real-time.”

In addition to featuring live-streaming video, users can quickly switch between historical timelines, highly-detailed gigapixel panoramas and continuous security recordings without leaving the Raken platform. The EarthCam-infused Raken experience extends the capabilities for sharing jobsite camera content, 360° site tours, and AI-edited time-lapse videos. The integration is now available free of charge for EarthCam enterprise clients.

EarthCam’s Control Center has long been the software of choice among industry leaders for smart project documentation, promotion, safety and security.
