According to the National Association of Realtors, homebuyers rank floor plans as the most desired listing feature after standard photos and property data — yet only 10–15% of US home listings currently include them. CubiCasa exists to close that gap, and it does so with a combination of smartphone technology, AI processing, and an industry-first free tier that has made professional floor plans accessible to every agent and photographer.
The workflow is refreshingly simple. Download the CubiCasa app on iOS or Android, walk through the property at a steady pace while the app records, and upload the scan. CubiCasa’s computer vision AI — combining room detection algorithms, machine learning, and smartphone LiDAR where available — processes the footage and delivers a complete floor plan within 24 hours standard, with a 6-hour rush option available for time-sensitive listings. The result is a clean, professional floor plan with accurate room measurements, labels, and dimensions aligned to ANSI-Z765 guidelines, the same standard used by licensed appraisers.
The output options are extensive. The base 2D floor plan — which is completely free for the first scan in the US, the first offer of its kind in the industry — covers most listing needs. From there, add-ons expand the deliverables: Fixed Furniture Details ($15) adds sofa, bed, and appliance placement; GLA Reports ($15) provide gross living area calculations for appraisal-ready documentation; 3D Floor Plans ($35) deliver an isometric view buyers love; and a 6-Hour Rush ($15) moves your order to the front of the queue. White-label options allow photographers to deliver plans under their own branding.
The scale of CubiCasa’s operation is worth noting: the platform has delivered over 1,000,000 floor plans across 172 countries and is used by 50,000+ companies worldwide, including integration with Redfin, which highlights floor plans on active listings. The platform has won the 2023 HousingWire Tech100 award and the MIPIM Paris award, recognition from both the proptech and real estate industries.
For productivity, the impact is significant. Photographers who have integrated CubiCasa into their workflow report fitting 5 appointments per day instead of the 2–3 typical with traditional floor plan services — because the 5-minute smartphone scan replaces a dedicated equipment setup or a separate service visit.
The limitations are worth understanding. Scan accuracy depends on walking technique — skipped rooms don’t appear, and very complex multi-level layouts or large commercial properties can challenge the AI’s interpretation. The app requires cellular or WiFi connectivity to function, and standard delivery isn’t instant. But for the overwhelming majority of residential listings, CubiCasa delivers accurate, professional-grade floor plans at a price point and speed that makes skipping them hard to justify.
