BuildFloorPlan vs FloorLens

BuildFloorPlan is a web service that turns text prompts, sketches, and images into floor plan drafts. Users can enter measurements and choose Technical 2D, 2.5D, or 3D-style output, then compare, edit, refine, restyle, and download results. It supports ideas for houses, apartments, small homes, family houses, and renovations, as well as early layouts for offices, restaurants, retail stores, clinics, studios, and warehouses. Generation, editing, and style changes use credits. The Free plan costs nothing and includes two generations, sketch or image upload, exports, and a seven-day history window; no card is required. Pro costs $19.90 a month and includes 250 monthly credits, all three output styles, unlimited history while subscribed, and email support. Plus costs $39.90 a month and includes 800 monthly credits, shareable links, branded exports, and priority support. Free and Pro are for personal or internal use; Plus and Lite Annual allow commercial use. Generated plans are drafts, not construction documentation or a substitute for licensed review.

FloorLens turns LiDAR scans of rooms and homes into measured floor plans, textured 3D models, and tours viewable in a browser. It automatically measures wall lengths, room areas, ceiling heights, and object dimensions, while allowing users to edit walls and objects. Shared scans open in dollhouse, floor-plan, or first-person photo views without requiring a viewer to install an app or create an account. The app can align plans to magnetic north and model the sun position and shadows for the scan location. Exports include measured PDFs, JPG, PNG, and SVG views, GLB, USDZ, and OBJ models, and MP4 fly-throughs. Country profiles include area conventions such as ANSI Z765, Gross Internal Area, RMS, WoFlV, and SIA 416; results are scan estimates, not surveys. Scanning and measurements run on the device, and uploads happen only when users choose to share. An account is optional; shared scans can be deleted from the cloud through the app. The free plan includes one web scan. The app requires iOS 26 and a LiDAR-capable iPhone 12 Pro or later or iPad Pro; there is no Android version.
