What It Is

Lotifica is a cloud-based software product for preparing real estate documentation. Its core goal is to convert field survey data into legal descriptions and professional plats that can be used for registration, deeds, title work, or submissions to government agencies. It emphasizes a complete workflow from data import and parcel definition through to final export, serving users such as surveyors, civil engineers, lawyers, notaries, municipal cadastral departments, architects, and drafters.

Core Features and Workflow

The product’s core modules include automatic generation of metes and bounds legal descriptions, creation of parcel maps with scale bars, data tables, vicinity maps, and title blocks, as well as building and unit plan documentation. Users can import DXF, LandXML, CSV, and PDF files, connect total station and GPS data, or capture points directly on a map. They can then build parcel boundaries from control points, adjust bearings, distances, and arcs, and finally export PDF or DXF files for signing, stamping, and submission.

Pricing, Collaboration, and Deployment

Lotifica offers three tiers: Free, Pro, and Enterprise. The free plan supports 1 project, up to 5 parcels, basic PDF export, and CSV import. Pro costs $29/month and includes unlimited projects and parcels, import for all formats, PDF/DXF/LandXML export, API access, and priority support. Enterprise is custom-priced and adds multi-user roles, SSO/custom authentication, on-premise deployment, dedicated support, and an SLA. Annual billing comes with a 20% discount. By default, the product is 100% cloud-based and runs in the browser, while the Enterprise plan supports on-premise deployment.

Pros and Cons

Its strengths are its highly focused use case and its ability to replace some of the repetitive drafting and legal-description writing tasks often handled in expensive CAD software. It supports multiple surveying-industry formats, offers a free entry-level option, and includes API capabilities. The limitations are that public materials do not specify which countries’ or regions’ registration standards are supported, nor do they disclose compliance certifications, data residency options, payment methods, API documentation details, or specific third-party platform integrations.

Who It’s For and Access from China

Lotifica is suitable for small and mid-sized surveying firms, real estate development project teams, legal documentation teams, and organizations that need standardized cadastral materials. Its accessibility from China is unknown, and there is no disclosed information on whether it offers a Chinese interface, domestic legal templates, RMB payments, or local servers. If used in China, users should carefully verify network connectivity and compatibility with local coordinate systems and registration formats. Alternatives to compare include AutoCAD, Civil 3D, ArcGIS, QGIS, and local surveying/drafting software.
