Max SQ FT of House that's Under 100 Scans?

DanSmigrod

1

8 monthsDanSmigrod (16915): Hi All, I could imagine that you are trying very hard to keep Matterport scans at 100 or fewer so that you are not charged $19 more. What is the typical maximum SQ FT that you do in 100 or fewer (processed) scans? Dan P.S. I say processed because I could imagine that when you do 101 to 125 scans, you may duplicate the model and delete scans until your scan count is 100 or fewer so that you don't get dinged an extra $19.

11 monthsMetroplex360 (8620): My tips: #1) When scanning, try to keep very STRAIGHT paths. It makes much more sense for navigation to be done at 90 degree angles -- and even with Matterport tours, this turns out much better than simply scanning haphazardly in order to complete your dollhouse. #2) Disable unnecessary scans. As GSV is a bit more cumbersome to navigate, you are going to want to make your tour a bit more streamlined -- no bonus panos for fun! Try to trim...

Matterport pricing -- did I miss something?

1 yeartocha (166): I have suggested to Matterport several times that they created a graduated pay per number of scans schedule that would allow for more experimentation and discovery. For example: 4.95 for up to 10 scans, 9.95 for 11-50, $19 for 100. I believe it would foster more innovation and income opportunities for us and for Matterport.

1 yearDanSmigrod (16915): @Ghagendorf @GeorgeK I picked @Wyzlo tour because he took the time to stage the space with (real) people that gave him permission to do this space. He took the initiative to amplify the 3D Tour experience in a way most of us don't. I hope this Matterport 3D Tour of the day inspires others to use the Matterport camera in unexpected ways to help with visual storytelling. Best, Dan

That pantry was stairs to a bedroom and game room. Come to find out, there is no pantry in that house! The fun fact about this house...
