PlanSnapper

PlanSnapper.com is a web-based, purpose-built tool designed to measure and calculate ANSI-compliant Gross Living Area (GLA) from existing floor plans, blueprints, or sketches. It allows real estate appraisers, agents, and investors to get accurate wall lengths and square footage measurements without needing a physical site visit, making it useful for remote desktop reviews, verifying MLS data, and checking architectural drawings.

Key Features and Capabilities: To-Scale Measurement: Users can upload digital floor plans, scanned blueprints, or aerial photos, set the scale, and trace areas to calculate square footage. ANSI Z765 Compliance: The platform is built specifically to determine GLA, allowing users to differentiate between above-grade finished space, basements, and garages. Workflow Integration: It works well with digital floor plan tools like Matterport, CubiCasa, or iGUIDE to quickly calculate GLA from their exports. Speed: It is marketed as a way to verify square footage in under two minutes.

Primary Use Cases: Appraisers: Perform desk reviews, verify property sketches, and calculate GLA without a field visit. Real Estate Investors/Agents: Verify if a listing's square footage is accurate before making an offer to avoid overpaying for misrepresented GLA.
