Where ATIS.cloud wins over ReCap

Where ReCap Pro wins

Share by link without Autodesk

Your client doesn't have ReCap? No problem. Send an ATIS.cloud link, they view the 3D scan in their browser.

RCS/RCP conversion

If you must work in Revit or AutoCAD, ReCap Pro is the only tool that converts E57/LAS/PTX to RCS/RCP.

19+ formats without conversion

ATIS.cloud reads E57, LAS, LAZ, RCS, RCP, LGSx natively. No need to convert to RCS/RCP.

Local scan-to-mesh

ReCap Pro 2026 converts point clouds to segmented meshes on your machine.

Per-team pricing, not per-seat

ReCap Pro is billed per seat. ATIS.cloud offers per-team pricing (4 or 10 users), significantly cheaper.

ReCap Photo (photogrammetry)

Creates 3D models from photos. Requires Flex tokens.

Built-in BIM/IFC comparison

ReCap can't compare scan vs BIM, you need Navisworks (extra cost). ATIS.cloud Advance includes scan + IFC overlay.

Native Autodesk integration

ReCap is natively integrated in Revit, AutoCAD, and Navisworks.

Choose ATIS.cloud if...

  • Your main need is to view and share scans
  • Your clients don't have Autodesk software
  • You want per-team pricing (4-10 users), not per-seat
  • You work with varied formats (not just RCS/RCP)
  • Data sovereignty matters

Keep ReCap Pro if...

  • You must convert files to RCS/RCP for Revit/AutoCAD
  • You use ReCap Photo for photogrammetry
  • You need local scan-to-mesh
  • You're 100% in the Autodesk ecosystem
