BeaverPlot turns your iPhone or iPad into a scan-to-BIM tool, a report writer, and a field companion that makes sure extra work gets paid. Walk a space, capture it with LiDAR, and get floor plans, 3D models, AI-drafted reports with photos pinned to the plan, a Xactimate sketch, and a home inventory. When a job grows beyond the quote, write a signed work ticket on the spot. ROOM SCANNING REQUIRES A LiDAR SCANNER, which not every iPhone or iPad has. The app checks your device when you first open it. Tickets, outdoor measuring, and calculators don't need LiDAR. HOW IT WORKS 1. Scan — Walk a room; RoomPlan + LiDAR capture walls, doors and windows 2. Edit — Adjust walls and calibrate with one tape measurement so exports are to scale 3. Export & Share — Files, AI reports, inventories, or a 3D tour link that opens in any browser WORK TICKETS — GET PAID FOR EXTRA WORK When someone asks for work that isn't in the contract, write it up in 60 seconds: photos, a dictated description, time & materials — then hand over your phone to sign. You get a signed change-order PDF, and each ticket is tracked from signed to invoiced to paid. Tickets stay on your device. SHARE 3D TOURS Text or email any room scan as an interactive 3D tour that opens in any browser, no app needed. (Pro) AI REPORTS — PHOTOS PINNED TO THE PLAN Turn a scan plus photos and notes into a property condition, listing, punch/snag, or restoration report. Photos are pinned to the measured floor plan and grouped by room, measured facts print beside each room, and source notes sit under the AI text. It's an editable draft, never a certified document. (Pro AI) SHARE REPORTS AS A LINK Publish a report as a web link that opens in any browser. Add a PIN or delete it any time. (Pro AI) BEFORE / AFTER COMPARISON Photograph a unit at move-in and again at move-out for a side-by-side comparison on the same plan. (Pro AI) QUICK DRAFT FROM NOTES Dictate what you saw and get a private first draft on your device with Apple Intelligence. Free. HOME INVENTORY Photograph your rooms and let AI list your belongings — item, brand, and room — for insurance or moving. Edit, export a PDF, or attach it to a project.
