SinkSpanner

From your counter to your door

The whole point is that no measuring tape is involved, and the fit is checked against your actual sink before you confirm anything.

The process

  1. Scan the sink

    Open the app and sweep the phone slowly across the basin — this step needs an iPhone with LiDAR. It builds a measured model: the basin cavity, the rim shape, the drain position, and the faucet's footprint. A guide overlay tells you which parts it still needs to see.

  2. Say what lives there

    Pick the things you keep at the sink — sponge, dish brush, bar soap, steel wool, a scrubber, the drain cover, a ring dish. Each one becomes a compartment sized for it rather than a generic well.

  3. Arrange it in real time

    Drag compartments around on top of the live model. Nothing is a preview render you wait for; the piece redraws as you move things. Pin the one that matters most and the rest of the layout flows around it.

  4. Let it check the fit

    Before you can confirm, the app checks the design against the scan: nothing overhangs the drain, nothing sits in the faucet's keep-out zone, water still has somewhere to go. Anything that fails is shown on the model, not in a dialog.

  5. Confirm your design

    You'll see the price before you confirm. We haven't finalized whether it's a single flat number or scales with the design, and we'll say plainly once it's decided.

  6. Print and ship, once that's built

    Checkout, printing and shipping aren't live yet. Once ordering opens, your confirmed design goes to print and ships to you. We don't have a lead time to give you — we'll post one rather than guess.

What actually holds it in place

  • It sits beside the bowl, not in it

    The organizer sits on the counter next to the basin, hooked over the rim. It doesn't sit down inside the sink. A flange drops a little way into the bowl so it registers against the basin and can't slide across the counter.

  • A spill tongue sends water back into the bowl

    The front edge reaches back over the rim and ends at a sharp, slightly thicker lip. Water lets go there and drops into the bowl, instead of curling underneath and dripping onto the counter behind the part.

Why scanning beats measuring

A tape measure gives you a length and a width. It doesn't give you the shape of the rim, and the shape of the rim is why a generic rectangular caddy never sits flush against a curved basin.

It also doesn't give you the relationship between things — how far the drain sits from the back wall, how much clearance the faucet needs. Those are the measurements that decide whether an organizer is usable or just present.

The scan captures all of it at once, and the design is checked against it before you confirm.

What's true right now

Scanning needs LiDAR. Phones without it skip detection and fall back to a standard bowl shape you adjust by hand, not one measured from your sink.

The app currently models one basin and one drain. Double-bowl sinks aren't supported yet.

The detector has been tested against a synthetic model of a sink, not yet against real sinks in real kitchens. We're saying that plainly rather than pretending otherwise.
