Overview
Updating your iGUIDE throughout a build or renovation lets you document every stage of a project accurately. From the pre-build scan through mid-project progress to the final post-build update, iGUIDE supports a workflow that captures changes as they happen.
This guide explains how to upload pre-build scans, request mid-project updates and submit post-build changes using either the Standard/Premium or Radix workflow.

Standard or Premium Package Workflow
Follow these steps to order a Standard or Premium package for your build or renovation project.
Initial capture and upload:
- Scan the property as normal, following the Scanning Best Practices guide
- Label each floor with the date of capture to indicate a pre-build or pre-reno scan, for example "First Floor – February 25"
- Upload the completed scans to the portal for processing
Requesting a mid-project or post-build update:
- In the PLANIX App, start a new project and note whether the scans are for mid-project updates or post-build updates
- Capture scans as normal, labelling each floor with the date of capture, for example "First Floor – March 3"
- After capturing all updated scans, submit a request to update your initial iGUIDE
- In your request, specify whether you'd like to keep the original floors and panos so the full building progression is documented
- Once published, you'll be able to view each floor according to its stage in the project timeline
Radix Package Workflow
Follow these steps to order a Radix package for your build or renovation project.
Initial capture and upload:
- Scan the property as normal, following the Scanning Best Practices guide
- Label each floor with the date of capture to indicate a pre-build or pre-reno scan, for example "First Floor – February 25"
- Upload the completed scans to the portal for processing
Requesting a mid-project or post-build update:
- In the Planix App, create a new floor within your existing project, indicating the floor and the date captured, for example "First Floor – March 3"
- After capturing all updated scans, transfer your data from your mobile device to a computer
- Open your project in Stitch and re-export it to include the new scans and data
- Go to manage.youriguide.com and open the iGUIDE you want to update
- Click Edit and locate Stitch Data on the left-hand side
- Upload your new Stitch.tar file — the newly added scans will be added to the existing iGUIDE
Important Notes to Remember Before Updating
Keep these points in mind before submitting an update request:
- Radix updates overwrite all previous data — make sure you include ALL scans, both initial and updated, in your upload
- For Standard or Premium updates, your request must specify that you want earlier scans retained so the different build phases remain visible
- All updates will be charged according to the published pricing structure
