Matterport Capture Services: Dan Smigrod Recommendations | Part 5 DanSmigrod 2 5 yearsbriangreul (684): The reason there are not enough insurance adjusters is because insurance companies want to pay the minimum they can.

Zillow 3D home and NodalView (which looks better and can include aerial panos) are both fast to shoot, so I use them as an argument that all listings should now include a “walkthrough” experience.

Question of the Day: What does it mean that Matterport now has a new CEO? DanSmigrod 8 6 yearsVTLV (2892): We get a new CEO announced in other news sources and nothing from the company in my email this week. Not feeling very hopeful about this one. What ever remarks he's made about the current tour inventory clearly support what the shareholders want back for returns. Returns they're not getting after 5 years of investing from Camera and hosting fees.

Preparing Matterport for IPO or Acquisition DanSmigrod 8 8 yearsVTLV (2892): @DanSmigrod - You hit the nail on the head of where was Matterport is at and where have they come since the beginning. In there, I think the CEO is having issues moving inventory as they try to create better quality and hang onto his job with investors waiting for a return at years 3-5 on their investment.

Non-MP Cameras to Publish to Matterport DanSmigrod 9 8 yearsjfantin (1733): @DanSmigrod, now I see what you mean. I wasn´t aware about the New York Times announcement (I haven´t received the email and I missed your post in the forum about it). This is great news indeed. When I doubted the validity of your statement I was thinking in traction as something defined by the demand's behavior and not from the sellers perspective. I mean, all these actions need market validation. Until property owners and their agents...
Matterport Shoots Itself in the Foot (Again) DanSmigrod 12 8 yearsJonJ (1760): @3dshowcaseuk, What you are asking is completely doable.

They create unique credentials and the MSP sourced, logs into their capture app with those credentials, scans the property and uploads it to the contracting companies account. The MSP is not responsible for processing fees, but can log into the my.matterport.com account to verify the scan and...

Project Tango News and Commentary DanSmigrod 23 9 yearssmcclell (156): It was perhaps a bit dramatic a comment i made that could be read as foreboding, with a coming doom haha. I agree with you..i did not mean this will replace MP. If anything, with matterport already experimenting with tango it could open up some exciting complimentary options. Lets hope so!
