Rasterscan

Rasterscan is a specialized AI API that focuses on one core task: converting 2D floor plan images into intelligent, usable data. Whether you're working with professional blueprints or hand-drawn sketches, Rasterscan uses computer vision to recognize architectural elements like walls, doors, and symbols, then transforms them into vector data and interactive 3D models. This process, often called raster-to-vector conversion, forms the foundation for digital building workflows.

What makes Rasterscan particularly useful is its developer-first approach and flexibility. The API provides multiple integration methods, including base64 encoding and raw file uploads, with support for cURL, JavaScript, and Python. Beyond the core conversion, it offers on-premise deployment for organizations with strict data security requirements (SOC2/GDPR compliant), and exports results to industry-standard formats like DXF, IFC, and GLTF for seamless integration into existing CAD and BIM software. The platform also includes a real-time web viewer for instantly sharing 3D scenes with clients.

This tool is especially valuable for architecture firms, real estate developers, and construction companies looking to digitize their paper-based plans or automate the conversion of existing digital floor plans. Software developers building property technology applications will find Rasterscan's API particularly powerful for creating features like virtual property tours, automated space planning tools, or digital twin applications that require accurate 3D representations of physical spaces.
