Looking for a
RoomSketcher alternative?
RoomSketcher is for drawing and visualizing plans. FloorScan is for analyzing existing plans and getting a takeoff.
Create plans vs analyze plans
RoomSketcher helps you draw floor plans and produce 3D home visuals. FloorScan does the opposite job: you give it an existing plan (PDF or image) and it extracts walls, rooms and surfaces automatically for measurement and estimation. Different tools for different jobs.
Why FloorScan for measurement
Works from existing plans
No redrawing: FloorScan reads the plan you already have and measures it.
Automatic surfaces & openings
Rooms, areas and door/window counts are detected, not drawn by hand.
Pro takeoff exports
Layered DXF and Excel built for quantity takeoff, beyond 2D/3D visuals.

Migration FAQs
Can FloorScan design or draw plans?
No — FloorScan analyzes existing plans for measurement. To create plans or 3D home designs from scratch, RoomSketcher is the right tool.
Can I use both together?
Yes: design in RoomSketcher, then export a PDF and run it through FloorScan for an automated takeoff.
