Scano3D turns your iPhone into a pocket 3D studio. Describe an idea and get a watertight, print-ready mesh in under a minute — or scan any object with LiDAR, tap it, and Scano3D erases the table and background for you. Refine by chatting: "taller," "add a handle," "smiling face." Tap two points to measure a real object and build models to its exact size. One tap makes any mesh print-ready, no CAD skills required. Export straight to your slicer — your scans and models never leave your phone.

Could you build this?
Partial The iOS frontend and LiDAR capture can be vibe-coded, but watertight mesh generation, background segmentation in 3D, and conversational parametric mesh editing require complex 3D geometry pipelines.
What it would actually take: Requires an iOS client using ARKit/LiDAR paired with specialized 3D geometry processing libraries (Open3D, CGAL, or libigl) running on GPU servers for remeshing and background segmentation. Conversational geometric editing needs custom text-to-3D refinement pipelines or neural mesh deformation architectures tuned for 3D-printable manifold geometry.
