BeaverPlot turns your iPhone or iPad into a professional scan-to-BIM tool โ€” and a field companion that makes sure extra work gets paid. Walk through any residential space, capture it with LiDAR, and generate industry-standard floor plans, 3D models, AI-drafted reports, and a home inventory in seconds. And when a job grows beyond the quote, write a signed work ticket before the crew leaves the site. ROOM SCANNING REQUIRES LiDAR โ€” iPhone 12 Pro or later, or iPad Pro (2020 or later). Work Tickets, outdoor measuring, and every calculator work on any iPhone. HOW IT WORKS 1. Scan โ€” Walk through a room using RoomPlan + LiDAR to capture walls, doors and windows 2. Edit โ€” Fine-tune dimensions, adjust wall positions, and calibrate with a single tape measurement so every export is to scale 3. Export & Share โ€” Generate professional deliverables, draft an AI report, build a home inventory, or share a walkable 3D tour link that opens in any browser WORK TICKETS โ€” GET PAID FOR EXTRA WORK When the GC, super, or homeowner asks for work that isn't in the contract, write it up in 60 seconds: snap photos, dictate what was asked for, add time & materials โ€” then hand them your phone to sign. The ticket locks, and a signed change-order PDF is generated on your device, ready to share on the spot. Track every ticket from signed to invoiced to paid, with a running outstanding total and reminders so nothing goes unbilled. Your tickets live in your own files (Files > Beaverplot > Tickets) and never touch a server. SHARE 3D TOURS Turn any room scan into an interactive 3D tour you can text or email. Recipients open it in any web browser โ€” no app required โ€” and can explore the space with per-room measurements. (Pro) AI REPORTS Turn a scan plus your photos and notes into a professional report โ€” property condition, real-estate listing, punch/snag list, or damage & restoration scope. Choose the tone and what to focus on, then review and finalize your editable draft. (Pro AI) HOME INVENTORY Photograph your rooms and let AI list your belongings โ€” item, brand, and room โ€” for insurance, moving, warranties, or your own records. Edit the list, add your own details, save it on your device, export a PDF, or attach it to a project.
