Deta Studio reviewing a construction drawing with markups, dimensions, and comments

Everything a review needs.
Nothing it doesn't.

Markup

Mark up as fast as you think.

Every tool feels light and immediate, so reviewing a sheet stays effortless — and nothing you flag ever gets lost.

Overlay two revisions and every change lights up. Nothing moves on a sheet without you seeing it.

Dimension

Measure once, trust it everywhere.

Calibrated, accurate takeoffs without leaving the drawing — numbers you can hand straight to the next person.

Calibrate the sheet once, then measure anything — metric or imperial, always to scale.

Whiteboard

An open canvas with real dimensions.

Collect ideas, images, and sketches side by side with your drawings — on a board that understands scale and grows with your project.

Drag images, screenshots, and references straight onto the board. No import step — it lands exactly where you drop it.

Collaboration

Connected everywhere you work.

Robust on a job site with no signal, effortless with a team across time zones — the same easy review either way.

  • Mac, Windows & mobile

    The same smooth review on your desktop, your laptop, and the phone in your pocket.

  • Local, no internet needed

    The local version runs entirely on your computer. Your files stay yours — no connection required.

  • Real-time cloud collaboration

    Open a cloud file and review together, live. Everyone sees every markup as it happens.

  • Linked to Drive & Dropbox

    Open files straight from Google Drive or Dropbox. Markups sync back — no re-uploading, no copies.

Simple pricing, for everyone.

Own it outright on your computer, or subscribe for the cloud. Don't need the cloud? You never pay for it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

The permanent license is a one-time purchase per license.
