I can confidently say that the iGUIDE technology has given Deft a huge competitive advantage. Even a very good adjuster who knows how to use a laser can’t match the accuracy we’ll get from iGUIDE. Simply seeing how much value it’s brought to Deft, we fell in love with it!
It used to take me over two-and-a-half hours to go into a home and just do measurements and manually insert them into floor plans. But, with iGUIDE, it was all so quick and easy. I have been able to grow my business by a whopping 375% using iGUIDE, and the cost of the camera has paid for itself a hundredfold, many times over!
Adding iGUIDE virtual tours has helped my Realtor clients sell more properties, save more time by showing fewer properties that fit home buyer's needs that they are excited to see and separate themselves from their competition when doing listing presentations.
Upon our introduction with the iGUIDE platform we were immediate blown away by the innovative technology, never seen before in the marketplace. iGUIDE provided our team with great efficiency in the overall process, allowing us to invest our time and focus in better servicing our clients.
If time is money, which it is, I am saving beyond the costs of a draftsman when it comes to creating As-Built drawings [using iGUIDE].

No, although it’s meant to be more durable when placed in a bag and carried but should never be dropped or exposed to moisture.
The PLANIX R1 was designed to be durable and doesn’t require a hard transport case. The included soft case was chosen for its versatility and ease of use.
When using PLANIX R1 all project data is stored on the smart device used for capture. Data can be transferred via a USB cable or wirelessly if your phone/computer supports it.
When using the PLANIX App on iOS or Android, the PLANIX R1 can submit data to the iGUIDE Portal directly from the smart device used for capture. The process is much faster than with PLANIX Pro because with PLANIX R1, processing occurs parallel with capture, eliminating the need to process export.
Almost any iOS or Android device of any size or shape can control the PLANIX R1. However, because the smart device is used to store project data it’s a good idea to use a device that has at least 16GB of storage.
The PLANIX R1 is compatible with a wide variety of tripods. The following features are recommended:
- Ball head with integrated spirit level
- At least 10lb weight capacity
- Arca Swiss style quick release plate for easy set-up and take down
- Max height of 60” (153cm)
