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

Matterport — Pros & Cons

Pros

Industry-standard 3D tours — what buyers and agents expect
Automatic floor plan generation
Direct MLS delivery supported
Free plan available for 1 active listing

Cons

Hardware required (camera or third-party photographer)
Monthly fees stack on top of capture costs
No built-in photo enhancement or virtual staging
Overkill for agents who don't routinely list premium properties
