ScanToBIM-CAD turns a point cloud of an existing building into a BIM model. You upload a laser scan (E57, LAS, LAZ or PLY; ReCap projects export to E57 first) and see it in your browser within minutes, with a quote measured from the scan itself: the area of each building and floor, and the price.
If you order, you get a native Revit model (RVT, opens in Revit 2024 or later with no IFC import step), an IFC for any BIM software, and a DXF drawing set: a dimensioned floor plan for every storey, four elevations and four sections, on sheets. All floors come back in one model from one upload. Walls (straight, diagonal and curved), doors, windows, floor slabs, ceilings, roofs, columns and stairs are modelled, inside and out. The model is usually ready within a few hours, at most 24 hours, and you check it inside your own point cloud before you download.
Walls are placed within about 1 cm of your scan (median error, measured on every model we deliver). Building services (pipes, ducts, electrical) and furniture are not modelled. Very noisy scans give better results when cleaned first.
Who it is for: surveyors, architects, engineers and firms that would otherwise send their scans to a scan-to-BIM service.
Pricing:
- Free: upload your scan, view it in the browser, and draw your own model in the editor; no card required.
- AI model: from $29 per scan (priced from the scan: the quote shows the price before you order).
- Editor Plan: $29/month, cancel anytime (for downloads of your own drawings on further projects).
No subscription is needed for the AI model.
