## What is Laboro.?

Laboro runs NYC facade jobs — LL11 / FISP repairs, restoration, sidewalk sheds and scaffolds — from the drawing set to the last sign-off. Five sections, in the order the job happens: Live · Building · Schedule · Field · Contract.

LIVE — THE JOB TODAY
• The building in 3D at today's date, or any date: the drops working with their crews, the sidewalk shed and the roof protection while they're up, and your team in the trailer
• Play the job week by week
• Site brief: Done · Next · Blocked · Decide, straight from your schedule and the field
• Weather from the National Weather Service: wind over 30 mph (gusts count) stops the suspended scaffold, rain stops pointing and coatings, under 40°F holds the mortar. Weather days are marked; you decide which ones count as non-working days
• Share with the owner: one link, an optional 4-digit PIN, your logo and colors. The owner sees the 3D, the brief, the photos, the team by role and name (never phone numbers), the weather and the days lost. Never the money

BUILDING — DRAWINGS, 3D MODEL, FILES
• Upload the drawing set: every sheet listed by its title-block number — roof plan, elevations, details
• Measure right on the sheet
• Build the 3D from the architect's elevations: windows, floor levels, bands, cornice
• Draw the drops on every facade, the sidewalk shed sized by code (BC 3307.6.3), roof and overhead protection, controlled access zones
• Several buildings under one contract, in one 3D
• Every file in the cloud, the same on iPhone, iPad and the web

SCHEDULE — PERMITS FIRST, THEN THE DROPS
• Permits: DOB filings, work permits, the sidewalk shed permit (issued, expires, renew by) and the TR1 special inspections. If a permit blocks the schedule, it says so
• DOB NOW permits and DOB / ECB violations for each BIN
• Master schedule: a Gantt by drop and rig. Type or drag any start or duration and it stays; an order that doesn't make sense gets flagged
• Next 2 weeks: the lookahead by zone, filled from the master, ready for the crew meeting
• Your company's holidays and working days, and the Work Schedule PDF

FIELD — WHAT GOT DONE, DROP BY DROP
• The engineer's tags on each drop's elevation sheet: mark what's done with the quantity and a photo
• Initial and Final for each drop, signed by the engineer or the foreman
• Links for the engineer and the foreman, no account needed
• Field reports and the weekly inspection log, with dated photos

CONTRACT — THE MONEY, NEVER SHARED
• Bid form, locked as the bid when the job is awarded
• Quantities against the contract, filled from the field marks, code by code
• Change orders with a backup page of marks and photos
• Forecast by month from the master, the 3D and your price book

YOUR COMPANY
• Your logo; the colors come from it and you can change them
• People with roles — PM, super, safety — and a foreman for each crew
• Company plan for the whole team, with admins

WHO DOES WHAT
TR1 and TR8 are sealed by the RDP. Laboro runs the PM's side: it coordinates the inspections, gets the work ready to pass and hands the engineer an inspection-ready package.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.9.0 — 2026-10-19

Laboro 1.9 — a new look, and five sections in the order of the job: Live · Building · Schedule · Field · Contract.

• Live: the job in 3D at any date — crews on the drops, the sidewalk shed, the site brief and Play. It opens every project, and it's what the owner sees.
• Your company: upload your logo and the colors come from it (you can change them). People with roles, and a foreman for each crew.
• Weather from the National Weather Service: wind over 30 mph (gusts count), rain, and cold under 40°F. Weather days show on the schedule; you choose which ones become non-working days.
• Owner link: your brand, the team by role and name (no phone numbers), the weather and the days lost. Contract is never shared.
• Schedule starts with permits, then the master and the next 2 weeks. Field holds the inspections and reports. Contract holds the bid, quantities, change orders and the forecast.

### 1.8.0 — 2026-10-13

Laboro 1.8: the 3D Schedule tab, a master schedule you control, the facade inspection tool on iPhone and iPad, and your company's team.

• 3D Schedule (was Deliver): the 3D drop plan, the master schedule and the owner portal in one tab.
• Master schedule: a Gantt like Microsoft Project. The sequence only proposes dates — type or drag any start and duration and it stays. No predecessors to manage: an order the plan would not have made is simply flagged. Phases come from the zones you name Phase 1, Phase 2… in the 3D, or from the questionnaire. Supported scaffold sections work alongside the rigs.
• Work Schedule PDF: a real printed Gantt — months and weeks, phases and elevations, bars by rig, milestones, today and contract lines.
• 3D editor, simpler: Model keeps the building, the drops and the site protection (sidewalk shed, roof protection, overhead protection, controlled access zones); drag on a lit-up roof to draw a protection area. A short tour explains every part (tap ?).
• Play: the job day by day — drops, rigs, scaffold sections, and each protection area installed and removed with the drops it covers.
• Owner portal: four answers at the top (progress, up next, blocked, needs your decision), site photos with their date, every inspection.
• Facade inspection tool: the engineer's tags per drop, quantities and photos, on the phone.
• Company plan for teams, usage packs of $25, $50 and $100, and refreshed Privacy Policy and Terms.

### 1.7.0 — 2026-10-11

Laboro 1.7 adds Sign in with Apple and Google, the Laboro cloud for your project files and a faster Projects list.

• Sign in with Apple or Google, or with your email and a 6-digit confirmation code.
• Your project files in the Laboro cloud: plan sets, photos, reports and submittals are the same on iPhone, iPad and the web.
• Projects: list or cards, search by name or address, filters (All, Alerts, Bidding, Active) and the open alerts on each project. Choose which alerts count in Account.
• Bid and walkthrough dates, with a reminder the day before and on the day.
• Submittals: one list created from the plans; upload a submitted package to see what is missing; check each product against the Project Manual.
• Inspection sequence: reorder the steps; the owner portal and the PDF follow your order.
• Company projects: join your company with its invitation and work on shared projects.
• Owner portal: shorter links and an optional 4-digit code.
• 3D: upload a 3D model (.glb) to a project; neighboring buildings shown in grey.
• Cleaner PDF reports: change orders, RFIs, submittal packages and inspection packages.
• Permit rules updated to current NYC requirements (sidewalk sheds, suspended scaffolds filed in DOB NOW).
• A new app icon and a redesigned Account screen.

### 1.6.0 — 2026-10-09

Laboro 1.6 brings detailed 3D buildings, drawing-set uploads per building and roof drops.

• Detailed 3D buildings: a building modelled part by part from its drawing set (windows, balconies, cornices, plazas), the same on iPhone, iPad, the web and the owner portal.
• Projects with several buildings: each building reads its own drawings - upload plans per building from the Building tab.
• Roof drops: draw drops on roofs and setbacks, not only on walls.
• Draw drops anywhere on the building, fire escapes included, and stretch them up, down and sideways without limits.
• Project progress: mobilization, sidewalk shed and facade work add up to one project %, also on the owner portal.
• Permit renewals: enter a renewed permit's new expiry date and Building Watch counts from it.
• Plan sets per filing: two filings of the same building are read and shown together, with a filter.
• Fixes: drawn roof drops are kept, and long projects sync with smaller files.

### 1.5.0 — 2026-10-07

Laboro 1.5 brings the iPad, the Facade inspection tool and a freer 3D lookahead.

• iPad: a full-screen layout with the side menu and the 3D model at full size.
• Facade inspection tool: the engineer's drawings with their tags, one page per drop for the field (marks, quantities, photos, signatures) and a link for the foreman.
• Draw drops your way in 3D: anywhere on a wall, across setbacks, any size; delete with one tap and undo.
• Several buildings in one 3D: the buildings of a project side by side, each with its own drops and floors.
• Hand-made drops keep their name, their tags and their place through rebuilds.
• Two screens at once: changes made on the iPad and on the web are merged instead of overwritten.
• Build from the drawings: the architect's elevations read at true scale (windows, floor levels, cornices), no credit.
• Neighbors measured from LiDAR, with the shared walls covered.
