Whether it’s drilling into a wall to install shelving, cutting drywall during a renovation, or troubleshooting a hidden leak, one mistake can result in damaged pipes, severed electrical wiring, or costly repairs. Traditional stud finders can help locate framing, but they often provide only limited information about what lies beneath the surface.
The Resolv InSite Pro takes a very different approach. Rather than simply indicating where a stud may be located, it creates a live image of what’s hidden behind compatible wall materials. Using radar technology and AI-powered image processing, the device is designed to reveal pipes, wiring, studs, ducts, leaks, and other concealed features before work begins.
Designed primarily for trade professionals, the InSite Pro aims to reduce guesswork, minimize unnecessary demolition, and help contractors complete projects more efficiently.
What is the Resolv InSite Pro?
The Resolv InSite Pro is a professional wall imaging device developed to help contractors and installers visualize hidden structural and mechanical components inside walls. Unlike conventional stud finders that rely on simple signals or indicator lights, the InSite Pro generates a real-time, full-scale (1:1) image of concealed objects as the user scans the wall.
According to Resolv, the system is intended for professionals working in construction, remodeling, electrical installations, plumbing, HVAC, security systems, home inspections, and restoration work. By providing a clearer understanding of what lies behind finished surfaces, the device helps reduce accidental damage while improving planning and job efficiency.
How does the InSite Pro work?
Instead of using X-rays or thermal imaging to look inside walls, the InSite Pro utilizes safe, low-power radio waves combined with advanced sensors and proprietary AI algorithms.
As the user rolls the device across a compatible wall, the onboard processing system analyzes the reflected signals and generates a live image of hidden structures. Resolv describes the resulting output as MRI-quality imaging, allowing users to identify concealed objects with exceptional clarity.
Because the technology relies on radio waves rather than ionizing radiation, it is designed for routine use on construction and renovation sites.
Simple operation with minimal training
One of the strengths of the InSite Pro is its straightforward operation. Rather than requiring extensive calibration or specialized interpretation, the workflow has been designed to resemble using a paint roller.
Users simply:
- Place the device against the wall.
- Roll it steadily across the surface.
- Watch the live image appear on the integrated display.
According to the company, the interface has been designed so that no special training is required, making it easier for professionals to incorporate into their existing workflows.
What can the Resolv InSite Pro detect?
The InSite Pro is capable of imaging a wide range of concealed structural and building-service components.
These include:
- Wood studs
- Metal studs
- PVC pipes
- Metal pipes
- HVAC ducts
- Romex electrical cable
- Electrical wiring (18 gauge or larger)
- PEX plumbing tubing
- Water
- Pest activity
- Electronic devices
- Other hidden structural features
Beyond simply locating utilities before drilling, the system is also designed to help identify hidden leaks and pest damage, enabling users to investigate problems without immediately opening large sections of wall.
Compatible wall materials
The system is designed to scan through several commonly used construction materials, including:
- Standard drywall (½-inch to ⅝-inch)
- Double-layer drywall
- Fire-rated drywall
- Moisture-resistant drywall
- Skim-coated drywall
- Cement backer board
- Fiberglass insulation
- Spray foam insulation
- Cellulose insulation
- Foam board insulation
This broad compatibility makes the InSite Pro suitable for a wide variety of residential and commercial renovation projects.
AI-powered image processing
A key differentiator of the InSite Pro is its combination of advanced radar hardware and proprietary AI software.
Rather than displaying simple signal strength indicators, the system processes scan data to generate a detailed visual representation of concealed structures in real time. This helps users better distinguish between framing, plumbing, electrical systems, and other hidden objects.
The result is a much richer understanding of what’s behind the wall before any cutting or drilling begins.
Optional companion app
For professionals who need to document inspections or collaborate with colleagues, the InSite Pro supports an optional companion app.
With the optional subscription, users can:
- Save completed scans
- Add annotations
- Export scan data
- Share scans with clients or team members
These digital workflows may prove particularly useful for contractors preparing reports, documenting completed work, or communicating hidden conditions before renovation begins.
Expandable with optional thermal imaging
The InSite Pro also supports optional accessories that expand its capabilities beyond through-wall imaging.
Users can add an optional module that incorporates:
- A thermal imaging camera
- A visible-light camera
This allows a single device to capture standard photographs, thermal images, and through-wall scans, potentially reducing the number of separate inspection tools professionals need to carry.

Pricing and availability
The Resolv InSite Pro is currently available through the company’s waitlist program ahead of its commercial launch.
Waitlist subscribers can pre-order the device for US$3,499, representing a US$2,500 discount from the planned US$5,999 MSRP. Early supporters will also receive priority shipping once the product launches and may be invited to participate in the company’s beta program.
At launch, availability will initially be limited to the United States, with international expansion targeted to begin in 2027.
