Measure plan PDFs on iPad.
Built for AEC field teams: import a plan, calibrate scale, place linear measurements, and export a flattened PDF + CSV for fast handoffs.
Replace with a real iPad screen recording: import → calibrate → measure → export.
The 60-second workflow your crew will actually use
WowPDF is intentionally measurement-first. You don’t need a bloated toolset to get accurate numbers in the field.
1) Import
Bring a plan PDF in from Files and open it reliably.
2) Calibrate
Pick two points, enter a known distance, and lock scale for accurate measurements.
3) Measure + export
Tap → drag → done. Then export a flattened PDF and a measurement CSV.
Made for AEC: pencil-first, low-friction, dependable
When you’re walking a jobsite, the workflow has to be instant. WowPDF keeps tools compact, keeps scale visible, and keeps your export predictable.
- Measurements: linear tool + scale calibration (v1).
- Markups: pen, highlighter, arrow, rectangle, and text callout.
- Tool presets: save a few repeatable styles (minimal “tool chest”).
- Exports: flattened PDF and CSV so anyone can open the results.
Replace with a screenshot of calibration + a placed measurement label.
Performance targets for real plan sets
WowPDF is built around big PDFs: scanned drawings, vector plans, and multi-page plan sets. Publish your real-world results here once you have TestFlight data.
| Scenario | Plan set size | First page usable |
|---|---|---|
| Typical | 80–250 MB • 80–250 pages | ≤2s |
| Sellable target | 250–350 MB • 150–300 pages | ≤6s |
Tip: replace targets with medians + device model (e.g., “iPad Pro M2”) for credibility.
Trust and accuracy, by design
New app or not, the outputs have to be dependable for field workflows.
Calibration-first
Scale calibration is part of the core flow so measurements don’t become “guesswork.”
- Calibrate per page when needed
- Sanity-check with a known dimension
Predictable exports
Export a flattened PDF so markups and labels look consistent across viewers.
- Great for email + print
- Include CSV for quick totals
Offline-friendly workflow
Job sites are messy. Core workflows are designed to work without connectivity.
- Open, measure, mark up, export
- Purchases/restores require internet
macOS is next
We’re building WowPDF iPad-first, and keeping the architecture macOS-ready. Join the waitlist to get early access when the Mac version is ready.
We’ll email only about the macOS launch. No spam.
