Polycam turns a single phone scan into the documents jobs run on: floor plans, as-builts, estimates, roof reports, claims files, measurements, and CAD-ready exports. No tripod. No technician. No two-week wait.
WHAT YOU WALK AWAY WITH
• Floor plans — 2D and 3D, ready for AutoCAD, SketchUp, and Revit
• As-builts — weeks of documentation compressed into minutes
• Measurements — every dimension in the room, in the time it takes to cross it
• Estimates — priced off real conditions, not guesses
• Claims and damage records — dated, dimensioned, defensible
• 3D models and point clouds — .obj, .dae, .fbx, .stl, .dxf, .ply, .esx
• 360° tours — shareable links for clients and remote stakeholders
HOW YOU CAPTURE IT
• 3D scanner for fast, accurate interior and structural capture that works without LiDAR
• Photogrammetry and Gaussian splats from photos and video
• Drone and aerial capture for roofs, exteriors, and whole-site coverage
• Measure, annotate, crop, rescale, and label directly on the scan
WHERE IT FITS IN YOUR WORKFLOW
• Construction documentation and progress tracking
• Renovation and design visualization
• Insurance, restoration, and damage assessment
• Site survey and drone-based mapping
• BIM coordination and CAD workflows
• Factory layout and equipment documentation
WORK FROM ONE TRUTH
Share scans and floor plans with clients and teammates by link. Control access with private or public permissions. Use shared libraries so the whole team is looking at the same site. View, edit, and export from any computer on Polycam Web, included free.
34 million scans. More than 10 million people. Over 2 billion square feet captured.

I have dedicated myself to the recreation and reimagining of the world’s best kept secret historical locations; from theme parks and abandoned train and underground tunnels to Romanian and Georgian Castles, Villas and Tainted Lakes, to Drach & Genova Caves; I’ve also been recreating the fictional world of Legend of Zelda, historical towns & monuments, and I’ve even been able to create my nonprofit for my business proposal I’m preparing for a revolutionary new community concept featuring alternatives to incarceration, with an aim to include 20% of our population to be from reentry after inpatient, residential and correction centers to destigmatize and provide long term housing and treatment solutions to an underserved at risk population estimated to include at least one third of the US Population according to studies quoted by NAMI, the State of Illinois and the federal government (see statistics on population estimated to suffer from mental illness, neurodivergence, developmental disability, addiction, and dual diagnosis; often impacted by international concerns including human trafficking, and the opioid epidemic, including military veterans & their families)
Paid for pro and they took away with my work docs…..
Honest Mike?
I wish I could give them a higher score because had this not happened I was going to leave a different review. Not a 5 star but can be a decent app once they figure their stuff out. But I purchased my galaxy when I had it not knowing needed lidar which i switched back to iPhone after phone was stolen and has to go through difficult process to transfer app to iPhone. Oh, then you decided to try the business because for some reason, pro doesn’t really do anything.A it’s kind of useless. You can’t save your measurements. No, that’s for Business. Another $400 mind you post 200 and there’s a lot of apps out there for free. Just as good. After having two video calls with a sales rep, allowing them to try to show me the value in the $400 upgrade when I couldn’t see the value in the $200. I told them I’m canceling the trial and will stick with the 200 pro and figure a get around for now or transfer my skins to a free app that lets me save the measures. They decided to take it upon themselves to. Try to charge me $400 for the business for a week or two and then suddenly take both away with my skins for my business and have now left me to talk to Apple, which I have spent all day yesterday just to end up with them saying I need to speak back with Polycam……… I want my scans and my money back or your”pro” back And have some customer service for Christ sake.Will keep updated have a call with big boys at apple tomorrow woohoo…..
Misleading and Low Quality for Expensive Cost
Mbarbacc
I was looking into this application for designing a floor plan on a commercial building. I am working on leasing up. I signed up for the seven day free trial to test the app and noticed several flaws and features that are not available at the base level that are essential to using the application, such as dimensions, floor plan details, many other components of the app that seem to come with the membership that are only provided once you upgrade to the higher subscription. I didn’t have an issue with this until I went to upgrade my membership and noticed the price as significantly gone up. I asked a member of Polycam about this, and they said I had signed up during a promotion however that promotion had ended, and they would not honor the lower rate that I originally inquired about. They said they could not help me and to reach out to Apple about this. I mentioned this only to stress the lack of care they have for customers that are inquiring about services. So be warned about their tactics, they tend to blame Apple for any issues you have once you’ve paid for their services. Aside from that I found the quality of the application to be inefficient and low quality for the value they are charging you for. I would recommend alternative options from my experience rather than utilizing their lower grade membership, avoid this platform if you are looking for higher quality renderings for your project. It does not get the job done and is not worth the money, there are better alternatives out there, so please be forewarned.
Encrapification over time
Mooretin
I used to love this app, it worked amazingly, scanned entire floors of houses, exported reliably for only $60/year for the pro version. For about three years it was my go-to tool for personal projects and home renovations (I am a DIYer not a commercial or pro user).Fast forward three years and forced updates later, now it costs $150/year to export which is totally unreasonable for a DIYer like me and to make matters worse when scanning longer sessions (more than one room or two) randomly the entire scanning view turns blue (the color of unknown/uncaptured geometry) and stays that way completely ruining the scan. When I click finish at that point all the data is gone. I have to reattempt 10-15 minute scans like 5 or 6 times to finally get a successful scan which makes me completely discouraged from using the app at all, especially since I wont shell out the absolutely insane almost 3X price bump for export to SketchUp so I can stitch multiple scans together since a lot of my scans simply cant be done in one session due to geometrical shift mid scan and the extend feature being close to useless/broken/unreliable. What’s the point of buying devices with fancy hardware like LiDAR when there is no first party software and the third party is ridiculouly overpriced subscription rubbish.
* Reworked our multi-story Room Plan capture pipeline, replacing Apple's RoomPlan API merge logic with our own so multi-story scans no longer break
* Fixed error cases in multi-floor floorplan generation
* Fixed an issue where non-LiDAR floorplan sections were missing even though the LiDAR layer displayed them correctly
