Acutra – we exist so that no tool needs to be replaced prematurely

The construction industry has a problem. Tools get misplaced, lost and stolen at alarming rates. This problem can easily cost a smaller construction company up to half of their annual profit and can cause serious delays when key equipment is stolen or lost.

We at Acutra are committed to fixing this problem.

We have been talking to construction companies of various sizes and have had interest from some of the largest construction companies in the country. We are developing a solution based on existing technologies that have not previously been utilised effectively in tackling this problem, chiefly among them is GPS.

GPS has previously been considered too power inefficient to use for tracking tools but we have found a way to increase the battery up to half a year.

Our next steps are partnering with the companies that we have been in contact with and developing our product with this select group of early adopters. We have the vision, drive and necessary skills to go through with this project and we’ve had an incredible amount of help and support during Startup Journey to plug the gaps in our experience.
