Mach9 automates feature extraction from reality-capture data—transforming raw LiDAR and imagery into engineering-ready 3D maps and GIS deliverables. The stack (Next.js, React, Three.js, Cesium.js, PyTorch, JAX) reflects dual competencies in web visualization and ML model tuning. Active projects signal a team balancing core product maturation (feature extraction, QA workflows) with go-to-market momentum (case studies, demand generation, customer onboarding), while pain points reveal friction in contract negotiation and scaling revenue from existing customers.
Mach9 builds software that automatically extracts features—utility poles, signs, curbs, road striping—from LiDAR and imagery datasets to generate CAD and GIS-ready maps. The product, Digital Surveyor, targets surveying, engineering, and construction teams seeking faster, lower-cost 3D mapping workflows. Founded in 2021 and headquartered in San Francisco with 11–50 employees, Mach9 operates as a private company focused on reducing both the time and cost of large-scale mapping projects. Current work spans design-system evolution, ML model tuning for edge deployment, and prototype detection capabilities for road infrastructure.
