For home inspectors
Measured Floor Plans for Home Inspection Reports
vPlan AR lets home inspectors add a measured floor plan to every inspection: scan the home with an iPhone Pro or iPad Pro, record each room’s condition with notes and photos, and export a room-by-room condition report and dimensioned plan clients can actually navigate.
Why home inspectors switch to LiDAR floor plans
Findings without context
Clients struggle to locate "northeast bedroom" defects. A floor plan with room labels puts every finding in place.
Photos scattered across folders
Attaching photos to the room they were taken in keeps evidence organized and easy to review.
Few ways to stand out
A measured plan and square-footage breakdown are a premium add-on that differentiates your reports.
How it works
Scan while you inspect
Capture each room as you move through the home; a typical room takes one to two minutes.
Record condition per room
Set condition (Good, Fair, Poor, Damaged), note issues and attach photos to the room.
Export the report
Export a room-by-room condition report with the floor plan and photos, or a dimensioned floor plan PDF to include with your inspection software’s report.

Frequently asked questions
Can I add a floor plan to my home inspection report?
Yes. Scan the home with vPlan AR on a LiDAR iPhone or iPad Pro, then export a dimensioned PDF floor plan to attach to the report produced by your inspection software, or export vPlan AR’s Damage / Scope Report for a room-by-room condition summary with photos.
How long does scanning add to an inspection?
Roughly one to two minutes per room — usually 10–15 minutes for a typical single-family home — and it can be done as you move through each room.
Which devices can scan?
iPhone 12 Pro and newer Pro / Pro Max models and iPad Pro (2020 and later), running iOS 16 or later. Other devices can use the web editor to draw plans manually.
