Hey RPLS.com,
We're new to the vendor space here and wanted to introduce what we're building.
What it is
Azimuth Prep is an exam prep app for land surveying certification and licensure, built by working surveyors for working surveyors. Live since late May 2026 on iOS, Android, and web.
What we cover
NSPS CST certification:
- Level 1
- Level 2 (Field and Office tracks)
- Level 3 (Party Chief Boundary, Party Chief Construction, Chief Computer Operator)
NCEES exams:
- FS (Fundamentals of Surveying) - 550 questions
- PS (Principles & Practice) - 500 questions
State-specific exams:
- Texas TSSE - 340 questions
- Florida PSM - 458 questions
- California PLS - 462 questions
Plus 2,000+ flashcards across all exams, full-length practice exams, audio review mode (good for windshield time), and a daily question.
Why we built it
The long lectures and bulky textbooks aren't built for people with busy lives or those trying to maximize their time. We wanted exam prep you could pick up during a lunch break, work through on the drive home (audio mode), or grind on in 10-minute chunks instead of needing a 3-hour study session to make progress. Built by working surveyors, written to read like a colleague walking you through the answer instead of a textbook footnote.
How it works
- First 30 questions are free, no signup. Open the app and start.
- Subscriptions: $29.99/month, $74.99 for three months, or $279.99/year at azimuthprep.com (web). In-app pricing runs a few dollars higher because Apple and Google take their cut, so subscribing on the web saves you a bit.
- Students with a .edu email get a full year free, auto-applied when they confirm their email.
- Surveying instructors and CTE program leads can get free classroom codes for their students - just reach out.
Statute bundles
Separate from the app, we also sell state-specific statute bundles - searchable PDFs of state surveying statutes, board rules, and licensing law, with annotation for what's tested. Texas, Florida, and California are live. $29.99 one-time, free updates when laws change.
On the roadmap
North Carolina and Oklahoma state exams next, then more states behind those.
