iGUIDE — Pros & Cons
Pros
- ✓Floor plan accuracy of ±0.5% distance and ±1% square footage — measurably tighter than Matterport
- ✓Single scan generates a 3D tour, accurate floor plans, room measurements, and CAD/Xactimate-compatible exports simultaneously
- ✓No subscription required — per-project pricing from ~$5 CAD; operators own their data outright
- ✓Fast capture — a typical residential property scanned in under 15 minutes with the PLANIX R1 camera
Cons
- ✗Requires purchasing the proprietary PLANIX R1 camera (~$2,600 USD) upfront before any first scan — no rental program exists
- ✗No photo editing, HDR, twilight effects, or virtual staging capability; a separate service like BoxBrownie is always needed for those deliverables
- ✗Pricing is denominated in Canadian dollars, making cost-per-scan unpredictable for US operators subject to exchange rate swings
- ✗No drone or aerial photography capability — the system is strictly limited to interior 3D capture
