This app enables you to accurately measure points in the real world by downloading and printing a PDF file available on our website (http://markerscanapp.markerscan.com/en/Home/MarkerSets). Place the markers in such a way that they point towards 3D position you want to measure. Then follow the steps in the app (which includes taking pictures) to actually calculate the 3D points. After the 3D model has been calculated, you can decide to order it (currently for free). It will then be send to your email in different formats, such as .ply, .dxf, .xyz and .xls. You can use these files to get the exact distance between points, use it as a base for 3D printing and so on. Measuring shapes using this app is much quicker when you want to measure complex shapes such as curved walls, window sills and kitchen countertops.

ScopeVu is AI plan intelligence for construction — upload your project's drawings, ask plain-English questions about them, price the work, schedule the trades, and bring your whole crew into the loop. 1. Upload your plans. Drop your project's PDF sheet set (architectural, structural, MEP, civil, etc.) into ScopeVu. The AI processes every page — usually in minutes, longer for very large sets — extracting titles, page numbers, and content from each sheet so you can stop flipping pages to find what you need. 2. Ask anything. Once your plans are processed, open Ask AI and ask in plain English: • "What's the wall framing detail at A2.01?" • "Where does the gas line tie in?" • "How many bathrooms are in the plan?" • "What's the rated wall assembly between units?" ScopeVu answers with citations — tap a citation to jump straight to the source sheet in the viewer. 3. Share with your crew and subs. Invite project managers, field workers, foremen, subcontractors, and owner-builders to your project. Everyone gets role-aware access — your subs see what they need, your PMs see the full picture, and per-project permissions keep one client's plans separate from another's. NEW — PRICE THE WORK WITH THE AI ESTIMATOR Describe a job in plain English — "reroof a 2,400 sq ft ranch, full tear-off, architectural shingles" — and ScopeVu drafts an itemized bid: line items, quantities, labor and materials, priced from current market research. Every line is editable with live totals, a price book learns your rates over time, and you can export a branded PDF proposal for your client. (Estimator subscription.) NEW — RUN YOUR BUILD WITH JOBS (for owner-builders) Building your own place? Organize it trade by trade: collect quotes, compare offers side by side, ask the AI "is this quote fair?" against market reference pricing, have it draft a scope of work before you solicit bids, and track who you hired and what you've paid against budget. NEW — SCHEDULE A dependency-aware timeline for the whole build. Move one job and everything downstream reflows automatically. General contractors get a cross-project crew view to spot conflicts, and you can hand a schedule straight to a hired sub — calendar invites included. Around that core, ScopeVu ties together the workflows project teams already run: • Lists — turn an AI answer into a shareable action list and send it to a teammate; every list assigned to you lands in your cross-project Inbox. • RFIs — field crew submits questions from the jobsite; project managers respond and close them, with full response tracking. • Change notes — broadcast field changes to the team, severity-tagged, with acknowledgement tracking by role. • Walkdowns — review AI-summarized walkdowns from your field crew, with completed areas, issues, action items, and linked photos. Coming soon: voice walkdown recording for project managers and in-app photo capture across all roles. Built for the people doing the work, with role-aware UI and per-project access control.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MarkerScan at none against ScopeVu's 5. MarkerScan also leads on iOS requirement (8.1 vs 15.1). ScopeVu's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
