LiDAR scanning for iPhone & iPad
Measure the whole house with your iPhone
Walk each room with your phone and Scanstead turns the walkthrough into instant measurements, dimensioned floor plans, and a shareable 3D model — before you leave the job site.
7-day free trial · Works on LiDAR iPhones (12 Pro and newer Pro) and iPad Pro
Everything a walkthrough should give you
One scan replaces the tape measure, the notepad, the sketch, and the return trip.
Scan any room in minutes
Point your iPhone and walk the room. LiDAR + Apple RoomPlan capture walls, doors, windows, and openings as you go — no tape measure, no sketching.
The whole house, one 3D model
Scan rooms back-to-back and Scanstead merges them into a single house model, aligned floor by floor. Double-tap a floor to isolate it.
Every measurement, instantly
Wall heights and lengths, door and window dimensions, floor area, and perimeter — extracted automatically the moment a scan ends.
Dimensioned 2D floor plans
A clean, dimensioned floor plan is generated from every scan. Pinch, pan, and share it with the office or the client.
Too smart to double-count
Shared walls, doorways between rooms, and duplicate openings are deduplicated automatically, so your takeoff numbers stay honest.
Outdoor scans too
Trace lot and ground outlines for area and perimeter, or capture building exteriors with LiDAR mesh and get wall-area estimates.
Photo-realistic models
High Fidelity mode projects real photos onto the parametric model — walls and objects — so the model looks like the house, not a diagram.
Voice notes pinned in place
Talk while you scan. Notes are pinned to where you were standing and transcribed on-device, then assigned to the right room.
From scan to estimate
Export USDZ 3D models, share floor plans, or send scans straight to the office — measurements flow into your estimate, not into a notebook.
Estimate with Trusso →Real job, real numbers
A kitchen remodel, measured in one pass
Cabinet runs, counter walls, window and door openings — captured in a single scan and dimensioned automatically. Tap any wall in the 3D model to check a length; the floor plan is ready to drop into your estimate.
- Wall-by-wall lengths and heights
- Openings measured and deduplicated
- Floor area and perimeter for flooring and trim
Send the scan to Trusso and the measurements land directly in your estimate.
Built for the trades
If your work starts with measuring a building, Scanstead does the measuring.
General contractors & remodelers
Bid a kitchen or bath from one walkthrough. Every wall, opening, and square foot is captured before you leave the driveway.
Painters
Wall area per room and for the whole house, minus doors and windows — priced in the truck, not back at the shop.
Flooring installers
Floor area and perimeter for every room, plus a dimensioned plan for layout and waste calculation.
Insurance & restoration
Document a loss in minutes with a measurable 3D record of the property — rooms, contents, and dimensions.

Fast, consistent GLA measurements and floor plans for listings and appraisal reports.
Architects & designers
As-built existing conditions as a USDZ model you can pull into your design tools the same day.

How it works
How LiDAR actually measures a room
The sensor in your iPhone fires thousands of invisible light pulses a second. Here's how those pulses become wall lengths you can put in a bid.

Why we built Scanstead
Every job starts with measuring, and measuring by hand is the slowest, most error-prone part of the walkthrough. So we replaced it with a walk.
