An L3H2 Weekender laid out in the editor — payload, balance and budget update as you drag.

Three questions every build stands or falls on

Will it fit?

See it in 3D before it exists

True interior dimensions for 27 vehicles — wheel arches, wall taper and all. Furniture snaps to walls, stacks like the real build, and design checks flag what a floor plan on paper never shows.

  • 27 vehicles, 159 variants — Ducato to Sprinter to ProMaster
  • Templates: Weekender, Family camper, Mobile office
  • 63 components + a designer for your own furniture

Will it drive safe?

Weight, balance and axles — live

An overloaded van fails inspection and can void insurance. Watch the payload bar, front/rear axle split and centre-of-mass marker react to every item you place.

  • Live payload vs. your van's real limit
  • Front/rear axle load split
  • Centre-of-mass marker on the floor

What will it cost?

A budget that builds itself

Every item carries a cost. Materials are priced from your framing, boards and appliances, and running costs show what the extra weight does to fuel.

  • Itemised build budget & materials estimate
  • Battery + solar vs. appliance draw: days of autonomy
  • Running-cost impact of your build weight

The only output you can take to the saw

Most layout tools stop at a pretty picture. VanPlot exports a Build Sheet: your cut list with framing exploded into stud-by-stud cuts, a priced materials list and your power plan — the difference between a drawing and a build you can start on Saturday.

  • Cut list with stud explosion
  • Priced materials & appliance list
  • Power sizing: battery, solar, autonomy
  • PNG export of your layout

The Founding 500

The first five hundred lifetime licenses aren't just cheaper — they're the ones we build this with. When they're gone, they're gone.

VanPlot

Founding License

No. ——— of 500

vanplot.com

$39 · $59

  • Price locked at $39, forever

    The license never renews and never upsells. After seat 500, the price is $59 — founders keep theirs.

  • Everything we ever ship

    Every van, every feature, every export — 159 variants today, all future ones included. The changelog is the receipt.

  • A direct line to the builder

    Founder emails get answered by the founder. Feature requests from the Founding 500 shape what ships next — that's how the measure tool happened.

  • Covered by the Plywood Guarantee

    14 days, full refund, keep your exports — even if you've logged in and planned the whole van.

No invented reviews on this page — the product is 6 weeks old and we'd rather show you the changelog than rent applause. The first testimonials will be real builders with real layouts, named and linked.

Every license plants a tree in the Deliblato Sands — Serbia's ancient sand forest, where wildfires burned thousands of hectares in summer 2026. We fund seedlings through Izobilje's Re:Generation project and publish the receipts here.

The Plywood Guarantee

If VanPlot doesn't save you at least the cost of one sheet of birch ply, email us within 14 days for a full refund — and keep your exports. Yes, even if you've logged in.

Questions builders actually ask

Is it really free to start?

Yes. The trial is the full app — every van, door, and feature — for 15 minutes of active planning time, no download, no credit card. The timer only runs while you're actually editing, and when it ends your plan stays saved and viewable forever. One payment picks up exactly where you left off.

What does “lifetime” mean, exactly?

One payment covers the lifetime of the product: everything in the paid plan today, plus every van model and feature we add later. No renewal, no upsell to keep what you bought.

Which vans are supported?

27 vehicles in 159 length/height/drive variants, derived from manufacturer specs: Ducato, Boxer, Relay, ProMaster, Sprinter, Transit, Transit Custom, Crafter, TGE, Master, Movano, Trafic, Vivaro, Vito, Expert, Daily, Transporter, HiAce and more — each with interior dimensions and payload. More are added continuously, and lifetime buyers get all of them.

How do refunds work?

14 days, full refund, no questions — even if you've used the app, and you keep anything you exported. Email support and it's done.

What's this about planting trees?

In July and August 2026, wildfires burned thousands of hectares of the Deliblato Sands — the ancient sand forest in Serbia, where VanPlot's founder is from. For every license sold, we fund a seedling through the Re:Generation of Deliblato Sands project (izobilje.com) and publish the receipts on this site. You're buying wood to build with; putting a tree back into a burned forest feels like the least a van tool can do.

Can I use my layout to actually build?

That's the point. The Build Sheet exports your cut list (framing exploded into individual stud cuts), a priced materials list and your power plan — take it to the timber yard.

Do you support right-hand-drive / US vans?

Interior layouts are drive-side independent, and the lineup covers both EU (Ducato, Crafter, Master) and US (ProMaster, Transit, Sprinter, Metris) favourites. Metric and imperial units both work — toggle in the editor toolbar.

Why this exists

I built VanPlot because planning a conversion meant juggling graph paper, a spreadsheet and a CAD tool that treated a van like a house. None of them could answer the questions that actually scared me: will it fit, will it tip, what will it cost.

So this is one tool that answers all three, runs in the browser, and costs less than the sheet of plywood it will inevitably save you. If it doesn't, you get your money back and keep the exports.
