Who is PLOTT?
We make smart tools that brings the real world into a visual app. There, you can design with dimensional context, then use our app & tools to help you install - all without the need for calculations.
Why We Do It
Through working with construction professionals and our own DIY and construction experiences, we understand it’s not easy to change your surroundings. Taking all the necessary measurements for your designs, then applying those designs to your living space is a complicated and time consuming process. We want to make that process easy and affordable.
FAQ
Make sure your Bluetooth™ is on, open up the app, and start a project. It will prompt you to connect when you press “Start” to begin measuring. If you do not see the device make sure Carta is powered on. Alternatively you can go into the app settings and go to devices to connect.
There are many reasons why you may not get back to start point. Firstly Carta is an estimation tool and may not be perfect. Secondly there is room for user error. For best accuracy walk at a consistent pace and stop at corners to mark points. Make sure your phone is securely in the phone holder, level and paralel with the ground.
Carta works best on level surfaces and flat work. if there are grade changes this will impact the accuracy of getting back to your start, therefore impacting the accuracy of the square footage. If you are experiencing this try breaking the project into smaller sections to minimize the error.
This version of Carta does not calculate elevation change. It is made for flat work and graded properties.
Carta currently works on IOS and Android. We reccomend Iphone 10+ and Samsung Galaxy S series (Galaxy S10+) Unfortunately phones with inadequate gyroscopes and accelerometer will produce inaccurate results.
