How the LiDAR scan works.

This is a live rendering drawn by your browser. Sixty thousand points move through the same five steps the app follows on every job: scan, measure, identify, inspect, and record. For the shipping screens themselves, see the iOS app page.

01SCAN

LiDAR reads the room.

Point the iPhone and the LiDAR sensor ranges the room and everything in it. What you're watching is that process drawn live: sixty thousand points resolving into an armchair.

02MEASURE

Measured, not estimated.

When you want the cube exact, the scan measures it. This chair measures 35 × 33 × 38 inches (25.4 cubic feet), with no tape measure required.

03IDENTIFY

AI identifies the piece.

Photograph a piece and the app identifies and names it, then fills in cube and weight from the catalog estimate to start the record.

04INSPECT

Damage is recorded in standard codes.

The AI flags likely scratches, chips, dents, and wear the way the industry writes them: location code, then condition code. 1SC means arms, scratched. A crew member confirms, edits, or rejects every suggestion before it is recorded.

05RECORD

The scan becomes the record.

Every piece lands on a numbered descriptive inventory. Numbers are permanent and never reused, and mistakes are voided rather than deleted. The shipper signs on site, and the PDF is archived before the truck leaves.

On the record

A measured floor plan from the scan

Walk the rooms and the scan traces the plan as you go: walls, doorways, and every numbered piece where it stood. The finished floor plan is included in the signed PDF. It's time-lapsed here so you can watch a whole apartment render in seconds.

Runs on standard iPhone hardware

LiDAR room scanning requires an iPhone with a LiDAR sensor (iPhone 12 Pro or later). Manual entry, the item catalog, photo and voice capture, and PDF export work across supported iPhones. The app is free to download and use.

Design partners get in first.

We're onboarding a small group of moving companies and owner-operators who run real moves on the app and tell us what to fix. Partners use the Company tier free for six months.
