Scan a room or a whole home in minutes and get back an MLS-grade floor plan, a true-to-scale 3D model, and a link your clients open in one tap. Needs an iPhone 12 Pro or later, or a LiDAR iPad Pro. FloorLens turns the LiDAR sensor you already own into a professional scanning tool. No tripod, no laser meter, no extra hardware. WHY AGENTS AND APPRAISERS PICK FLOORLENS • One tap to share — every scan becomes a link and a QR code, both added to your PDF. Buyers and renters walk the space in their browser: dollhouse, floor plan, and photo modes, with your scan photos pinned exactly where you took them. Nothing to install, no account to create. • Cinematic fly-throughs — export an MP4 that moves through the home, dissolves into the real photos you took while scanning, and ends on your branding, the key figures, and a QR code. • Oriented to the real world — FloorLens finds magnetic north, so the plan faces the way the building actually stands, while an artificial sun casts realistic shadows. • Never miss a corner — live coverage feedback shows what still needs scanning, while you are still on the property. • True 3D capture — bake textures onto the walls or scan a full textured 3D mesh. MEASURE AND EDIT ON SITE • Precise measurements for rooms, walls, doors, windows, and objects • Add, remove, move, rotate, and resize walls and objects • Set door types and opening direction • Add room labels, notes, and property details EXPORT YOUR WAY • AI floor plans built to ANSI Z765, auto-aligned to north • Professional PDF with measurements, floor plans, photos, and notes • 3D models as GLB, USDZ, or OBJ — open them in any 3D or CAD tool • Current view as JPG, PNG, or SVG SWISS PRIVACY BY DESIGN The floor plan of someone's home is unusually revealing data, so FloorLens is built to keep it. Scanning, floor plans and measurements are computed on your iPhone — nothing is uploaded to be processed. No account is needed to scan, measure, edit or export. A scan leaves your device only when you log in and explicitly upload it, and you can delete it from the cloud at any time. Never sold, never shared, no ads. FREE • LiDAR room and home scanning • AI floor plans (ANSI Z765), full editing, and measurements • In-scan photos • PDF, 3D model, and image exports • 1 shared web link at a time PREMIUM • Texture-baked walls and full textured 3D mesh • 3 shared links at a time, with link and QR sharing • Personalize PDFs with your name, logo, and agency details • iCloud sync across your devices PROFESSIONAL • 30 shared links at a time — enough for a full listing pipeline BUILT FOR • Real estate agents who want listings that stand out • Appraisers and property managers who need documented, standards-based areas • Architects, designers, and renovators who need fast, accurate as-builts • Homeowners and renters planning, furnishing, or advertising a space Scan your first room free. No account required. FloorLens Premium is a monthly auto-renewing subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
