Scope-Scan.AI Capture is the mobile companion to the Scope-Scan.AI professional inspection platform. Property inspectors, general contractors, and renovators use Scope-Scan.AI to capture 360° panoramic photos of properties and generate detailed scope-of-work reports automatically — powered by computer vision and AI. WHAT IT DOES - Capture 360° panoramas of every room, exterior, and system in a property using your Ricoh Theta series camera - Organize each shot by room and camera position with an intuitive picker (62 canonical rooms and positions, from Front Yard to Utility Room) - Optionally geo-tag each panorama with GPS coordinates for on-site verification - Upload to the Scope-Scan.AI cloud, where AI generates a full scope-of-work report identifying construction, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and structural items across the property - Review, share, and reference every scan from your device — including offline viewing of previously captured properties WHO IT'S FOR - Property inspectors documenting existing conditions - General contractors and renovators generating cost estimates and bids - Real estate investors evaluating renovation scope for potential acquisitions - Insurance adjusters documenting property condition - Anyone who needs a fast, accurate inventory of what's in a property WHAT YOU NEED - A Ricoh Theta series 360° camera (Theta X, Theta Z1, and other supported Theta models) - An active Scope-Scan.AI account, created at scope-scan.ai - iPhone with iOS 15 or later Scope-Scan.AI Capture is a companion tool to your Scope-Scan.AI account.
