Resale value of Matterport Pro3 Camera? Shawn_P 6 1 monthHome3D (4091): I’ve been fortunate to never (yet) need Mike’s expertise to repair any of our MP cameras. But based on his reputation and the praise I’ve heard from numerous owners that he has helped, I’m really happy to know Mike is there to support us all. Thanks, Mike!
Pricing a 27-acre Lakeside Resort Scan? nthutton 5 4 monthslilnitsch (5755): Typically on large projects I bill a daily rate plus any travel expenses if occurred I would also discuss how the tour is going to be hosted. Do they have an account or will you be hosting the tour long term. If you are hosting the tour you would also want to discuss pricing for on going hosting of the model.
Wish List: Matterport Pricing DanSmigrod 4 5 monthsHome3D (4091): Top request from my team: Let users download FULL RESOLUTION 16K panos from our tours. Also permit retouching and reloading of enhanced panos back into tours, just as was part of the GeoCV system years ago, and is also part of the new Realsee system. Clearly it is possible, just let users do it. The ability to retouch / enhance is a critical function for consumer-end tours, whether for real estate or commerce. To protect the interests of...

Matterport Limits on Scan Points: 199 Scan Points Works for Me Sdoughtie 2 6 monthsWingman (4345): I am doing ones with 300-450 scan points(pubs and hotels) now and it is really stuffing my iPad Pro 2020. I have to delete almost all jobs from the Capture app just to scan quick and even for trimming. From another point I have not updated the camera firmware and probably the app for a few months. May be it will get faster with updating.
Question of the Day: Are you offering Matterport Plug-ins as an Add On? DanSmigrod 2 7 monthsSdoughtie (531): I'll just be honest; I don't find the property report to be useful. It's more work to correct the AI than if I just did it myself. Perhaps there are keys that will select segments with a window, but as it stands now, I have to delete rooms and individual segments, frankly, it's a huge waste of my time. Moreover, I don't like giving clients access to models with erroneous info on it. ...

So, things are starting to pick up for the season... lilnitsch 2 8 monthsrhelling (314): Best advice I ever got when starting my business long ago was... ...it's important to say no to work that doesn't fit your business model for whatever reason. When that happens, don't dwell on it - instead, go play golf or do something enjoyable. Point is - during those enjoyable moments, I've picked up some of my best contracts. ---- Glad things are going well for you.
Matterport Classic Plan: Addition cost for scans above my 100 limit? Integratedman 7 9 monthsGETMYVR (1913): This is one of the coolest groups on earth! I try to charge all commercial clients $250/yr hosting per model, this helps offset expenses on my Classic Plan. $21 for an extra 50 models is a good deal. I am not buying a Pro3 and do not need to upgrade. Been a Pro2 user since 2017, and it's a great 3d tool for us. When Matterport sunsets the Classic Plan, I will too.

ShowingTime+ new "Listing Showcase" offering - The Scoop! Dataventurer 3 1 yearVTLV (2892): Sounds like a direct rip off of the Realtor.com Listing Showcase feature from 2006-2009. At that time, they would sell a space with 2 lines and a picture of your featured listing on a side column below the premier agents.
Pricing Matterport Pro3 scanned spaces as large as 272,000 SQFT? Harrycayman 6 1 yearMatterFix (463): If they dont need a lot of scan density, you can probably knock it out in a day. I’d figure my day rate and add for hosting since it will take up multiple slots in your hosting account. This job could set you up for the interiors next!
If you Have a Classic Unlimited Plan, MP is Coming for you. Shakoure 10 1 yearWingman (4345): Despite seeing others complaining about the same I have never seen anything like this myself. I was in situations when my bank locked my credit card and did not let any payment to process and that included paying Matterport subscriptions for two accounts. And with one account being from old plans Matterport just asked me to update my payment method for both. I did it and there was no single problem. I still have and use both. I think those who...

What do you charge for Matterport hosting fees? fotoguy 1 1 yearfotoguy (835): I'm looking for an average of what folks charge when their clients wants you to host their MP tours long term. I have a few house rental companies that now have me host their tour and they embed them into their website. These aren't plain MP tours. I use a third party to customize them with their logo,company colors, etc.. Currently I'm charging $10/mo per tour if paid one year in advance or $15/mo if paid 6 months in advance....
How to price hundreds of MatterTags in a Matterport art institution tour? Senojev 4 1 yearJedrzej (314): We did a case study for our SIM-ON platform in an art gallery.

You can also import previously made Mattertags, which are converted into an asset repository format. The customer creates their own account in the SIM-ON application and can complete the tags themselves. Perhaps this tool will be helpful for your project? If you would...

Matterport Hosting (Need Advice): "indefinitely" Tour Host/Price Options? rhelling 18 2 yearsrhelling (314): SOLUTION: The client decided that 360 images were just as good as the virtual tour. We elected to go with Kuula ($144/yr - Unlimited Hosting). It requires a little more touch-up on our end to link the files together, but we're not scanning the whole space in detail like with Matterport.

Your experience with Zillow Listing Media Services? And, ....? Deano 12 2 yearsDeano (158): Zillow, Realtor.com, Homelight, Upnest and virtually everyone sells consumers to agents for 35% of the commission. It's really ridiculous, but agents are OK with it so the race to the bottom begins... The thing is that consumers COULD negotiate with agents and get this 35% for themselves. So Zillow will need to narrow this gap themselves so that they can put all of the other companies out of business and keep the flow for themselves. Enter...

For clarification, you can still shoot the museum tour(s) with a Matterport Pro2 Camera (Pro3 recommended) and 3DVista is used for menus, branding and more. For example, the...

MSP with Pro3? 10 Thought-Starters for Charging for Scanning OUTDOOR Spaces DanSmigrod 2 2 yearsExpertise (1192): We are 98% residential.

Tip of the Week: When to charge client 1/2 Matterport Cloud Hosting Account DanSmigrod 3 2 yearsWingman (4345): I agree with @Gladsmuir. It seems everybody hates these resuming fees no matter how small they are. I've recently lost a client and disabled their 3D tour because they've decided not to pay $180 AUD per year for the tour hosting. I won't tell the client name but this is one of the biggest worldwide know property developer company that Matterport bragged around a lot making them their client. A bit of history about them: I contacted their local...
Pricing Question: How to charge for Vacation Rental Photography? GETMYVR 2 2 yearsMeidansha (793): Not sure about vacation rentals in particular but for case study houses for a building company I was told the houses are used for ten to 13 years so I charged the equivalent of 100 dollars a year up front and did a job equivalent to the price.

Matterport — Baby Steps into the Metaverse Carson 5 3 yearsWingman (4345): None, because Matterport has not been created for 3D so they cannot built a good 3D model. You can hover use it to collect some 3D data and then manually clean & fix it. Sure it is faster than doing it from a scratch but still should cost a few 1000s to build a clean 3D model with realistic textures from a Matterport tour and Matterpack.

Do you charge the same for any Matterport camera? GETMYVR 5 3 yearsGETMYVR (1913): Thanks for the replies. With a Theta you have to disappear from the scene completely instead of follow behind with the Pro 2. Not sure how much time that really saves. And with 95% of listing still without a 360 or 3D virtual tour perhaps the price point is still a little hefty for some agents despite historically highest commissions ever. I think what is prudent is offer two versions of the Matterport tour, standard and Premium. I would...

If it goes faster there is always an option to be honest and charge only for actual time. 20 days was my estimation for an Exhibition centre which was a similar size(45000 sqm) but it supposed to be closed with...

Auctioning a Matterport NFT (for $187,000 or more) Worldof3D 22 3 yearsCharlesHH (640): @Wingman one of the weird things about NFTs is that you can make a video and post it on YouTube where it is seen by 10 million viewers. Then you can sell the original mp4 file as an NFT and keep the video on YouTube. Similarly you can sell a photograph as a nft. But you still retain the copyright and the buyer does not have the rights to make and sell prints from the image. But he owns it.

Costs for 140,000 sqft? ukvisualimmersion 4 4 yearsWingman (4345): Make sure you can scan it with a Pro2 first. it is quite a big size and it may have very large rooms. If they are empty a Pro2 can stop aligning and you'd better do it with a rented BLK360.

What would you charge for Matterport - 25kSF commercial space? sdubose99 10 4 yearscgraft (117): Also realize that although the Ricoh cameras capture scans faster than a Pro 2 does, you have to run and hide somewhere out of the shot every time with the Ricoh. You'll be getting quite the workout scanning a large open space with that device, VS just stepping behind the Pro 2 while it spins. So wear your apple watch for the workout points! and charge accordingly. Nice work finding a big job.

How much to charge for 108,000 SQ FT Matterport? Doable in one model? DanSmigrod 4 4 yearsmartel (90): I typically have discussion about what exactly they want to highlight with 3-D. Conference rooms? Offices? 3-D those spaces and 360 the rest of building. Having 3-D throughout the whole building that big gets redundant and shows the same thing. You can set up the virtual tour very well with 360 photos.

different charge for real estate vs rentals? fotoguy 4 4 yearsArchimedStudio (708): Hey Jan, I'm not quite sure I understand this tax "problem"... of course when you earn money, you're going to pay taxes on it. Licensing photos is earning money (almost) passively with photos you were already paid to shoot. You can look at it another way if you want : instead of being paid X amount for the original shoot, you indirectly charged X+++ for that shoot (and yes, a bit extra taxes on those +++, but you keep the difference!...

Question of the Day: Are you a Matterport Artist or Business Person? DanSmigrod 7 4 yearsHome3D (4091): I got my first camera at age 12 and have owned many since. So I’m an artist first, trying to maintain a good business approach to work. When I’m working for an agent/client who is appreciative, who recognizes my level of commitment to service, I often go above and beyond. For example, this month I had several small jobs booked for HDR photos only, but delivered a MP tour as well as an end-of-year thank you. If I’m on a job that pays...

Large Warehouse and Office Shoot Pricing? simbany1 8 4 yearstoddwaddington (526): @GETMYVR, that is ALWAYS the case. I've worked in many different industries. Perhaps it all boils down to whether a person has a consciousness of abundance (generosity) or lack (poverty). The abundance consciousness is much less fearful and always knows there is enough to go around while the lack consciousness "nickels and dimes" because they are always in fear of being in need or something being taken from them. I realize, this is...

Video: Why this MSP charges $135 for 25 photos & posts this on his website DanSmigrod 3 4 yearsExpertise (1192): Ok, you solved one problem and created another one. This is an honest question for Eli- When Chucky Cheapskate (under)orders 25 photos for a 5000SF, million dollar waterfront pool home and then wants to know why you didn't shoot 2 angles of the master bedroom... how do you handle it?

WGAN-TV Live at 5: Which Real Estate Media Services & How to Pricing Them? DanSmigrod 12 4 yearsGETMYVR (1913): This really broke through a couple of fences holding me back on pricing.

Another excellent lesson, thank you Dan!!!
Does anybody here charge for Matterport by the room, rather than footage? peanutismint 18 4 yearsGETMYVR (1913): I spent 20 years as a digital marketing director for automotive dealerships, and a constant gripe for salespeople was that it seemed like car dealerships were always in a race to the bottom for pricing in their advertising.

For free!! I want my agents to be top performers.
Do you charge less for shooting Matterport with a Ricoh Theta Z1 than Pro2? DanSmigrod 10 4 yearsVTLV (2892): I can wrap my head around charging less For another use. If you have a classic plan, you’re putting up to $39 for upload using dual fisheye lens. Your monthly plans still need to help with costs to fund your tour slot plus other slots not currently being used. You use a pro 1 or 2, you’re out a few hours of shooting time. It’s right there with charge more for pro2 vs pro1 price comparison a couple years ago. Fund the plan, compete with...

Matterport Pro? Asteroom solves the challenge of shooting 200,000+ SQ FT DanSmigrod 4 4 yearsjericreson (84): I just shot a 20,000 sf project. It included 54 panos - 13 of which were exterior panos. The # of panos will vary by project - for example, large open spaces will require fewer panos than individual offices with connecting halls, and complex layouts. If you are shooting with a relatively low resolution camera, you will need substantially more images to capture a decent level of zoom in detail, especially of larger rooms. A Theta Z1 would...

Matterport Services Revenue Virtual_Homey 4 4 yearsjen_ishayoga (33): Always difficult to pinpoint based on the location. There's a few things I've noticed in my area, Indianapolis IN. Average starting rate is around $0.08/sf. Almost everyone has incremental pricing based on sf. It's rare to find a group with flat rate pricing. Fair entry would be around $175 - 200. After learning the hard way, I've realized that I just have to scout my area and see how things are doing. 🙃

Matterport Highlight Reel: what should I charge? Shawn_P 9 4 yearsBrianNash (4): I have done many for free. Then realized some people don't value them or use them.

Question of the Day: Your Matterport special offer for first time clients?

What would be a good rate to charge per square foot in Scotland? Gus360 3 4 yearsWingman (4345): I cannot say per square foot and I am in Australia so my price is in AUD but I charge $2/sqm maximum unless it is a small under 250sqm space with people walking in it during scanning. For these I will add surcharge as it is harder to do with people interupting scanning process. After 250 sqm my rate goes down in small 5-10% discounts. 1 sqm is about 10.8 sqf and AUD/GBP rate is 0.55 so if you convert it it is $0.1 GDP per sqf it may look...

11 Reasons to Keep Matterport Classic (Old) Pricing DanSmigrod 1 6 yearsDanSmigrod (31336): Hi All, Here are 10 reasons to keep Matterport "Classic" Pricing. instead of switching to Matterport "new" pricing. 1.

Question of the Day: Have you - or will you – change your hosting pricing? DanSmigrod 4 6 yearsbryanhscott (843): Regarding the abrupt nature of Matterport's new price structure roll-out: For my part, I am new to this biz (Real Estate Media) and had not yet published my rate sheet. So, for me, no biggy - just add this new ingredient (pricing model) to the mix and stir. Not so easy for those in the business long enough to have amassed 10's or 100's of hosted spaces and gotten their clients used to certain costs resulting in mark-up and pass-through. Like...

DanSmigrod 3 6 yearsDanSmigrod (31336): Hi All, If you charge $100+ for 2D schematic floor plans that @mp2fp charges $22.50 (after WGAN 10 percent discount), you can see that 2D schematic floor plans can be a great Add On. Do this twice a week for 50 weeks and that's $7,750 more a year. Do this four times a week, and that's $15,500. Easy money! If you are not offering 2D schematic floor plans – or barely charging more than what your cost is – you are leaving money on the...
Question of the Day: Do you charge extra "per additional floor" for MP? DanSmigrod 6 6 yearsHome3D (4091): Maybe I’m the odd duck, but I bid each job individually. I offer so many services, MP, GeoCV, NodalView, Zillow 3D Home, HDR photography, aerial drone photos and video, Zillow video, professional video, websites... and every agent has their favorite combo. So I just ask what services they want and the square footage. Once I know what they want, I can make a quick mental calculation as to the hours on site (sometimes days) and the hours at...
Question of the Day: Do you charge more for one business day delivery? DanSmigrod 4 6 yearsfotoguy (835): The MP processing is incredibly slow these days.

PRICING..Square footage or rooms? Seaweedsoul 8 6 yearsSeaweedsoul (26): I don't think .10 sq ft is unreasonable if the space is a standard ranch style one level 3 bed 2 bath. But when it's 6 bedrooms, two stories, multiple stair cases, 4 bathrooms, 2 living room spaces, etc.. it gets to be a two hour job with great efficiency. I'm fast and efficient.

Video: How does licensing photos for real estate photography work? DanSmigrod 2 6 yearsimmersivespaces (1229): Disagree on one point, the distribution of real estate listing photos is actually very high. Listing photos can appear on hundreds, if not thousands of websites through IDX distribution. This is one area where photographers have cut themselves short. What has also driven the licensing fee down in most markets is competition from other photographers, not smaller distribution. Over the past two decades, licensing fees for real estate photos are...

Question of the Day>Why is Matterport asking what discount you will accept? DanSmigrod 2 6 yearsChemistrydoc (1930): @DanSmigrod Probably so that they can underbid this amount for additional savings on the backs of MSPs. Hate to be cynical, but what choice have they left us? Keith
Question of the Day: What are the Pros and Cons of getting paid at closing? DanSmigrod 9 6 yearsDanSmigrod (31336): How about the price is based on 120 days payment and the agent can take a discount for paying either upfront or within 10 business days?

Pro2 vs Pro2 lite Wonderdawg 6 6 yearsWonderdawg (343): If acollaborator is willing to host (no fees) does the Pro2 Lite make more sense? Only because of the lower bar to entry for purchasing. And if the output specs are the same, and hosting costs can be passed along, why not use a Lite?

I've had homes where the reported square footage was 8K plus, but after I'm done, it may work out to less than that.

Large Complex 3rd Party Job: Referral Fee or Make the Spread? DanSmigrod 2 6 yearsHelloPado (177): I've enjoyed being the 3rd party a few times now and i feel like it's a win/win. The original MSP fosters the relationship that they created and I get a fairly simple "scan only" job. Relationships are what we do as providers but i understand how it can be difficult to bring an unknown variable (3rd party) into a trusted relationship. As long as it is fair to both parties, i can see either option working well.

Pricing Question (none Matterport) BrianM 7 6 yearsron0987 (3257): The only concern I have would be and I do not know if you have a signed contract you use that has "a hold harmless" clause that if the potential bidder uses the photos in a way to back out of a sale point out an issue with the listing of the property at the auction. Then the seller goes after you. Did you offer the seller a chance to completely view all unedited shots?
Making Money Idea of the Week #5: Variable Pricing for 2D Floor Plans DanSmigrod 3 6 yearsDanSmigrod (31336): @PetraSoderling Thank you for sharing this research. Yes. Clients are paying up to $600 for 2 Floor Plans, there is a lot of room for a Matterport Service Provider to charge way more than what they are likely charging and charge by the size rather than one price for any size. Best, Dan

Question of the Day: Pricing Strategy for Matterport to Google Street View? DanSmigrod 3 6 yearsChemistrydoc (1930): I love the pricing matrix that @Metroplex360 shared a while back on the forum and have pretty much incorporated that into my pricing. I think that one has to differentiate between clients that only want upload into GSV versus others for whom the hosting and use of the Matterport showcase will be also useful. Also, the price matrix that I mentioned needs to be upwards adjusted in light of Matterport's upcoming charging for the conversion and...
Question of the Day: Do you offer Matterport floor plans as an Add On? DanSmigrod 5 6 yearsGeorge_WALKINTOUR (85): We did at first, but Matterport actually messed up the first time with a client. It actually took them over 2 weeks to finish the floor plans. I can't remember what the issue was with it, but they totally screwed up on that job. The client then decided to cancel the order because Matterport took too long to produce the floor plan. :O

Cost Sharing Proposed - Thoughts? Snap 5 6 yearsSnap (194): Thank you. My question is more geared towards how much extra do I charge on top of what I normally charge. I think I may have used the wrong example. Think of it more for commercial applications for all parties. I can see the split ratio being up for discussion in some cases but if each party receives an entire scan for commercial purposes it would seem fair to say 50/50. It would also concern me that it would foster losing control over...

Matterport Charge per square foot lmrich73120 6 6 yearsVTLV (2892): I wouldn't bank on those numbers. Middle Man companies outsourcing to Matterport pros might get away with that pricing because their marketing budget has been pumped up and beating you out of your own market. Many of us try to make $0.10 a square foot. If there's multiple cameras around you, expect your competition to drop to as low as $0.03 a square foot just to beat you out. Photography services have been taking off the past few years...

Matterport getting started.... mjstef 2 7 yearsimmersivespaces (1229): @mjstef Just my opinions here... 1) Go with the Pro 2 3D. If you are the only MSP in your area, your margins will grow rapidly and the overall savings for having the paid plans will be worth it. 2) The average target pricing is between 8.5¢ and 12¢ per sq ft. Personally, I use a sliding scale based on the size of the property. The larger the property, the cheaper the price. I scan a lot of vacation rentals and most sit around the 10¢ per sq...

We are not Silent Lamb, we can have free OBJ JuMP 10 7 yearsMetroplex360 (9436): @mori I agree completely. Give out the 50k OBJ file and label it 'BASIC OBJ' - For hobbiests and enthusiasts. And then have 'PRO OBJ' with high resolution textures with the MatterPak.

Even if Real Estate agents were inclined to dive into this- and most, most definitely are not..... it just doesn't add up for an agent in terms of time/money invested and lost focus. With the cost of a camera, ancillary gear, hosting fees, learning curve, time spent on shoots, post production, keeping up with new developments.... the only way it remotely makes financial sense is making tours for a LOT of listings....

Virtual Staging For Matterport foxwrth13 6 7 yearsDom (58): @foxwrth13 @JakeRees @JonJ thanks for the comments and possible solutions! JonJ's approach is mainly used for commercial properties where the functional aspects are more important than bringing things together visually. Combining a Matterport mesh with our furniture library produces a correct result (i.e. everything is to scale), but of course the visuals are totally different. Here's a how to for doing that. Multistory: yes, that's possible!...

Charge for Cancellations of Photo Shoots? DanSmigrod 2 7 yearsaarongeis (72): Hi all, I agree with the answer given in the first response on the blog. For me it depends on the client relationship and how busy I am in practice. My contract states that written notice must be given 48 hours prior to the scheduled shoot time or I will invoice for 50% of the cost estimate. For clients I haven't worked with before or that I only work for infrequently I ask for a 50% deposit to secure the scheduled shoot time with the...
Matterport pricing -- did I miss something? sbl110 7 7 yearstocha (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.

What is the point of being a MSP? 3SixtyNow 20 7 yearsBale100 (175): Agree, price fixing does not work. Each market is different and we should live in a free market in economy where choice, quality, differentiation and availability determine prices. We know there's availability & choice in most markets, however the quality & differentiation maybe to difficult to spot for an untrained eye i.e. new prospects. Hence Matterport grading & client feedback to help make it clear.
Charge for 2D Schematic Floor Plans? Bundle? DanSmigrod 3 7 yearsmp2fp (509): The good thing about bundling is that there´s no need for transparent pricing - so the perception of value can easily be increased. Take for instance our $ 40 2D + 3D package - mark that up 3X and you´ve made an $ 80 profit. $ 120 for a 2D + 3D floorplan is not an unusual price, and I´m sure in some markets you could charge even more.

It's still early enough to set benchmarks and there's no precedent so in my simple mind I figure, why not?

Matterport's Unofficial Announcement justinv 23 7 yearsVTLV (2892): That's as bad as having news channels speculating over tweets as an ongoing investigation for their main story.

Maybe we could get a couple microphones and screen cast an All That Matters Show following the same core commitments. Maybe we could pick up some sponsors like IGuide and Magic lube.

Lets say you charge a hotel 2k to photograph their lobby and bar, they can then inbed this on their website and use it for marketing. If you charge them a hosting fee of £50 - £100 pm you will get an extra 1.2k p.a. EVERY year.

DanSmigrod 10 7 yearsGerhard (1484): @mori, yeah I checked it out does not make any sense, one word comes to mind - CLICKBAIT, you click we sell you a camera. Must say looks like someone in their marketing department either is starting to do their job, just a pity they are not putting that same effort into getting the showcases in consumers heads. That is much easier to do than to try and sell cameras. But what do I know, I don't have a marketing, branding, Post Hole Digging...
How to Price Matterport Spaces 3D Tours? DanSmigrod 3 7 yearsmori (819): One thing which is interesting especially in the relation when publish to streetview is available: the prices of streetview photographers. A list is available here: https://www.google.com/streetview/hire On most pages then you find prices. They charge much more for less viewpoints than an average MSP. But from our experience even this is often to much for people interested here in europe. In US the prices are lower than in europe.
Matterport Pros when do you get paid & why? DanSmigrod 16 7 yearsMetroplex360 (9436): While I do invoice the moment that I send the client the link, I request payment upon complete satisfaction. So far, I'm batting one hundred. No one has stiffed me. I have had one unhappy client concerning a GSV conversion - and his dissatisfaction with Google Street View's 'see-inside' no longer being an option is shared by me, understood, and I was happy that I managed to sell him a Matterport Tour from a GSV lead :) Just didn't get the...

Cost of Matterport Scans Processing Changes? tocha 9 7 yearstocha (166): Quote your projects the same. The customer has no idea what you pay Matterport unless you tell them. What this structure would allow is the opportunity for MSPs to think outside the real estate box. Do you think a car dealer will pay $30 per car just so you can cover your processing fee and make a couple of dollars? What about a sculpture or work of art or a tiny house? The way the processing pricing is being treated now is limiting the MSPs...
Dropping like a Rock? More like a Meteor! hometakes 12 7 yearsNamecomingsoon (13): @Gerhard agreed. I'm thrilled with the product, the customer experience just leaves a lot to be desired. I just feel like a dummy because like you said- the writing WAS on the wall. Live and learn.
WSJ: VirtualAPT 3D/VR Robot Gets $1 SQ FT DanSmigrod 2 8 yearsJC3DCX (823): I would love to see ANYONE in SA pay R39.00 (3xR13.00 / R13.00 = $1) an SQM (3feet = 1m). Thus a 1000SQM (3000SQF) home would cost R39 000.00, :eek::eek: 3x scans and I can purchase a new Pro2.

Contacted by other company for scans 3SixtyNow 11 8 yearsExpertise (1192): We own a busy RE photo company. We have subcontracted out Matterport to a local guy for the past few months. We received a 20% discount, which was OK, but not great IMO. I think he was being a little greedy and shortsighted. I really wanted 30% or 35%. So... We have a new Matterport camera on order now. If he had given me 35% off we probably would have continued subcontracting.

How to Charge for MP to Google Street View DanSmigrod 5 8 yearsPHILG (79): I believe in SAS. Spent my entire career in software. That is how software companies made their money. I'm talking enterprise software, not off the shelf single user or small # of users. I'd close a deal, asp $250k, then we'd charge 15% foe maintenance and service. Although that model still exists in large corporate sales, the mainstream is going to a pure subscription - monthly or annual payment. Much like Matterport, adobe, dollar shave club,...
How Matterport Should Charge for Street View DanSmigrod 4 8 yearsViewing (589): We'll have to wait and see what the nominal fee is. I just can't get my thinking away from the fact that we would be paying Matterport to publish their own 3D tour to Google. Bill Google if they're going to bill anyone. Don't bill us or the client by default as it's neither ours nor the client's 3D tour to publish to Google Street View. The greatest respect as always and I do appreciate the staff commitment to making GSV happen. We shouldn't be...
Giraffe 360 camera - Matterport threat? tomasdunbar 15 8 yearsPauluploadabode (28): To be fair to @MikusOpelts his product is great and I was very impressed by his pitch for investment at London Proptech. The quality of image is much better than matterport but it still felt more 360 than 3d. I can see it working for traditional estate agents in the uk who charge £3-5000 per property so won't mind paying £99 processing, but for smaller independents it won't work. My understanding is to get the camera for free you need to be...

Matterport Pros>Pricing When Sub-Contracting DanSmigrod 4 8 yearsViewing (589): With the way our site functions, one member of the forum suggested it could work as a distribution channel.

How to charge for MP Rich Media MatterTags? DanSmigrod 5 8 yearsMetroplex360 (9436): I think that the nature of the MatterTags should be taken into consideration. If the client sends you links to YouTube videos, fine. If the client sends you a list of Amazon items and tells you to include their id # so they get a kick-back, then you are providing a white-glove custom integration service that requires testing and precision. I would recommend providing a free # of MatterTags with each tour. Allow -1- video and up to 5...

Matterport Scan: Is Good Enough; Good Enough? DanSmigrod 10 8 yearsRPOceanic (215): I completely agree that a good number of agents aren't so concerned or even aware of the little details that an MSP may sweat over trying to get right. I think there are numerous reasons for this. An Agent isn't going to spend nearly as much time as the pro within the tour, won't likely walk through an entire model. An Agent will only be associated with most tours they buy for a short period, then will move on to the next listing or sale, will...

How to Price Your Matterport Services DanSmigrod 3 8 yearsfrstbubble (639): @Rootsyloops just a note on the video. Video is not cheap at all. There is quite a lot of time in the post process. But remember how much production companies charge for a 30-second video. That is what you have to compare your pricing. You are doing it for a tenth of what they would charge for 30-seconds and giving them from 3 to 7 minute commercial. We have a few clients that don't care for or get Matterport but love the video end of it. We...

New MP-ad & landing page for Pointcloud mori 15 8 yearsAlex_iGuide (361): With more scans you collect more data and, as a minimum, that data will result in a denser point cloud and finer mesh. That will increase computation time and storage requirements, so MP must draw a line somewhere for practical reasons and may limit how dense the point cloud is and how fine the mesh is that they store and make available for download. If you leap-frog along the wall with more scans, the overall room length error will be smaller...

How to charge clients for Matterport CoreVR? DanSmigrod 9 8 yearsProperty3dNZ (617): We are charging $50 NZ dollars for the VR. We decided on this number for a number of reasons - we want people to use the service, therefore it needs to be achievable. We are still struggling to really get MP off the ground with Real Estate with a constant number of scans weekly so having this small additional cost will hopefully not scare them off! We need to cover ourselves for the NZ dollar getting weaker as well.
Matterport Vs. Google Radie842 2 8 yearsjfantin (1733): MP and GSV are two different animals that happen to use similar concepts. In my opinion they complement each other but are not direct competitors because the value proposion is different. Quality is different and the navigation experience is superior with MP.

I think that if Matterport ended the $600...

Example of Matterport specific Proposal Cabrahams 2 8 yearsDSPhoto (112): I don't have a proposal to offer you but part of my consideration for using Matterport is how to license the work. If you are creating content to be used in marketing you have to license the use of the work for a specific amount of time. If not you will eventually pay for the hosting of your clients scan out of your own pocket. As for what that licensing fee should be? Good question.

VR Beta costs Noel 4 9 years360Verbeelding (352): Hi, I understand that MP wants 500 US for processing a file to VR and it needs 2 weeks to process. Is this correct. My question is, why so expencive and why do the need al that time to process. As i wamt to convert my regular 360 shootings to VR it takes me not more then a day including touch ups of the footage. I do this in Kolor, that sells for under 200 US, more then half the cost of on MP VR. I think MP should think about who their clients...

Pricing>Bundle Hosting or Charge Separately? DanSmigrod 6 9 yearsDanSmigrod (31336): @Aghachi101 Great question. You might ask support@matterport.com and report back in this thread post ... I could imagine the house not selling. Another agents wants to use the 3D Showcase - or even get a VR version - and you would want/need the original model. As far as I know, if you delete a model from your my.matterport.com account, it's gone. While I can appreciate that the shelf-live of a house-for-sale may be limited, here's why not...
Two Pricing Questions Cabrahams 6 9 yearsron0987 (3257): I do what Jamie does, its dependent on the client, a long term client that has been loyal with work I don't worry about it. Newer clients we include it as an additional charge, most clients have no problem with the charge if they know it up front. Others hate the added charge after the job is complete. Ron

7,000 Sq Ft pixelray 2 9 yearsJRMaddox (106): I didnt know there was a direct link to peoples pricing.... Well im a complete newbie to the 3D tour world but I would try and base it off how long it may take you... I just did one and it took me 5 hours... At the end of the day I want at least $100 an hour but that just my time. Again also depends on how much per sq foot you want to charge. Im charging a price range of a 1000 sq foot then it goes to the next tier. But something this big would...
My solution to get invoices paid on time Marcel 12 9 yearsStevenHattan (1513): How about send a letter to all the Realtors telling them what happened....then...send a letter to the builder and say, "I'm a local Realtor and received a letter you're not paying your bills. If this is true I will never send a buyer yoru way and make sure everyone knows how you operate." It only takes a single person not to buy from him and he's lost tenfold.
Is Matterport working with Google Maps? VTLV 7 9 yearsGarySnyder (2140): @VTLV This is a repeat to what I wrote in the link which Dan has been so kind to include in this section but I'll go over a few of the points to consider as well as add some additional if you're considering shooting for Google. As a former Google Trusted Photographer that is or was the status you needed to achieve to shoot and produce Business View (BV) for Google. the process is very time consuming, that is not the actual photography but the...
Let's talk pricing CathieRasch 28 9 yearsSeventhsunrise (64): Cathie, it depends on the client type (our focus is not on the real estate market primarily) We do offer floor plans, traditional photography, and 3D modeling, along with private webpages... But we also bring marketing help, strategic communications and other tools. In real estate- We market direct to homeowners which garners significant business and places more pressure on the realtors in the market to utilize the service (regardless of...

Pricing CarlosFHdz 10 9 yearsJML (1): Its too often that more or less young guys start offering these kind of services, either drone or anything that has to do with electronics and basically ruin the market with a pricing that is completely out of the range. As Cathie said, they simply dont understand business cost and earning structure good enough in order to justify proper pricing. When this happens, its too late as the client for sure will only remember the lowest price someone...
Scan Price based on Price of Home StevenHattan 7 9 yearsedirwin (34): I think it's a big mistake to price our services on the price of the listing. That should have nothing to do with the price of our service because it has nothing to do with the value of our service. Once again, you start to do that and bingo, you ask for someone to undercut you in price. Come up with a rational pricing structure that fits for all situations and that applies to whether the home is vacant or staged or occupied. Yes, there will be...
