Who it’s for

When contractors use Manifold for as-built records

As-built records document a space as it was actually built — not how it was designed. They’re critical for future renovations, client handoffs, insurance claims, and coordination with engineers. Manifold captures them from any phone using Orbit Measure — shoot a short video, upload, and our servers process it into a measurable 3D model. On iPhone 12 Pro or newer, you can also use Floor Plan Scan to generate a structured 2D floor plan powered by Apple’s RoomPlan.

🏗️

Renovation & remodel contractors

Document existing conditions before work begins. Know exactly what you’re working with before a single dollar is spent on materials or planning.

📋

General contractors — project handover

Deliver a full 3D as-built record to building owners at project close. A shareable 3D walkthrough and dimensioned floor plan, no account needed to view.

🔥

Restoration contractors

Capture damage extent before remediation begins. Accurate dimensions for insurance claims and adjuster review — without waiting for a surveyor.

🔧

MEP & specialty trades

Record rough-in locations before walls close. Keep a permanent spatial reference of where pipes, conduit, and ducts were actually installed.

🏢

Property managers & facilities teams

Create a permanent, measurable record of every unit or space. Accessible to future contractors, tenants, and architects without sharing physical drawings.

💼

Architects & engineers

Get accurate existing-conditions data from the field crew without sending your own team. Receive a shareable 3D model and floor plan within minutes of the scan.

How it works

From site to as-built in 5 minutes

1

Open a project and tap Orbit Measure

In the Manifold app, open or create a project. Tap the “+” button and select Orbit Measure. Works on any iOS or Android phone — no LiDAR needed.

2

Walk the space for 10–60 seconds

Hold your phone at chest height and move slowly around the room, pointing the camera at walls, floor, ceiling, and any openings. The app records a short video clip.

3

Upload and our servers build the 3D model

Connect to WiFi or cellular and the upload starts automatically. Processing takes 2–5 minutes. You’ll get a notification when the 3D model is ready.

4

Measure remotely from the 3D model

Tap any point on the 3D model to take a remote measurement. No need to go back to site — get dimensions for material orders, layout planning, or RFIs from your phone or desktop.

5

Share with clients, engineers, or your team

Tap Share to generate a link anyone can open in a browser — no account or app download required. The 3D walkthrough becomes a permanent as-built record attached to the project.

💡 What to know about phone-based as-built scanning

Orbit Measure works on any iOS or Android phone — no special hardware required. It uses a short video processed by Manifold’s servers into a 3D model accurate to within half an inch on most interior surfaces. That’s more than sufficient for renovation planning, material takeoffs, and client handoffs. For a structured floor plan, use Floor Plan Scan — requires iPhone 12 Pro or newer (Apple’s RoomPlan API, not our requirement). Orbit Measure is not a replacement for survey-grade precision required for structural engineering or legal boundary work.

What contractors say

“We had 10 rooftop units to survey. It started to rain and my clipboard was bleeding. So I used Manifold, walked around every unit and got everything I needed. I had measured the first one by hand — it was exactly correct. I am at the point of trusting the accuracy of it.”

“Manifold allows our Virtual Construction department to scan a jobsite in a moment’s notice and begin utilizing the deliverable within a couple hours. The speed and agility of Manifold has Miron excited to see how the product continues to evolve.”
