Hover converts smartphone photos into interactive 3D models and property data, serving homeowners, construction pros, and insurers. The stack—Ruby on Rails, React, Go, GraphQL, plus computer vision infrastructure (GCP, Kubernetes)—reflects a company balancing real-time mobile capture with backend complexity. Active pain points around CV pipeline scaling and the friction between experimentation and production suggest Hover is at an inflection point: growing adoption in claims automation (a go-to-market priority) while wrestling with the technical debt typical of companies scaling AI/vision products.
