LOCAISH
Built at Meta Global AI Developer Hackathon · Oct 26, 2026 · Remote

Before building Locaish, I spoke with indie filmmakers and location scouts about how they choose filming locations. A room can look perfect in photos, but someone still has to visit to check whether the camera can get far enough back, the dolly fits, or sunlight will hit the right window. Those questions take time, travel and money to answer, often while a production is still bidding for the job. Locaish turns a phone walkthrough into a measured 3D twin so crews can answer those questions remotely. It maps the room, checks which equipment and camera setups fit, predicts sunlight for the shoot date, and estimates acoustics. Paste in a scene, and it places the shots in each candidate room to show which locations can hold the scene and where compromises are needed. The results become a shareable location package with measurements, camera plans and an interactive viewfinder. Every measurement carries its uncertainty, so crews know what they can trust and what still needs checking. The goal is simple: scout six locations, drive to two.
