 TL;DR: WGAN built a free 3D virtual tour price calculator — no signup, no credit card, runs entirely in your browser. Quote a client in under 60 seconds. Live now at calc.wgan.info. — — — Why we built it Most 3D capture pros — Matterport Service Partners, iGUIDE photographers, Giraffe 360 and Realsee operators — quote shoots from gut feel or a spreadsheet they put together five years ago. That leaves money on the table on big jobs and makes small ones feel arbitrary. The new WGAN price calculator does the math in seconds and produces a client-ready PDF you can email on the spot. Quick example: a 2,500 sqft residential Matterport shoot at $200/hr with a 60% margin produces a defensible client price plus a pass-through hosting line in under 5 seconds. Add a drone 360 set, a schematic floor plan, and travel mileage — the price updates live. — — — What it does – Scanner-aware time estimates — built-in profiles for Matterport Pro 2, Pro 3, iGUIDE PLANIX, Giraffe 360, Realsee Galois, plus a custom preset for any other camera – Three pricing models — margin (cost ÷ (1 − margin%)), multiplier (cost × X), or target hourly (hours × your floor rate + pass-throughs) – Add-on pricing — schematic floor plan, MLS video, drone/aerial 360s, mileage at the 2026 IRS rate, per-diem – Two PDF outputs — Internal Estimate (full cost basis for your records) + Client Estimate (sanitized — no hourly rate, no hosting cost, just the deliverable + total) – White-label mode — toggle WGAN branding off, your business name appears as the letterhead instead – Multi-currency — USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD, NZD, JPY, CHF, or any custom 3-letter code – Sqft / sqm toggle — for international users; internal math always stays in sqft so estimates stay consistent – Reusable templates — save "my standard residential" once, load in 2 clicks; export/import JSON to move between devices – Customizable quote numbers — set any prefix you like (e.g. ACME-2026-0001 or 3DTours-0206-21343); trailing digits auto-increment after each PDF download – Quote expiry dates — one-click +7 / +30 / +60 day buttons – Discount line — flat dollar or percentage off – Email handoff — one-click mailto: with subject, body, and share link pre-filled – US MSA price comparison — enter a ZIP, see typical residential/commercial rates for your local market – Rate card PDF — separate "pricing menu" export for cold outreach to property managers and brokers – CSV export — QuickBooks/Xero-compatible columns – Shareable URL — every quote encodes into a single link you can copy/paste or email — — — Frequently asked questions Q: How much does a 3D virtual tour cost? For a typical 2,500 sqft residential property, a Matterport-style 3D virtual tour costs roughly $250–$700 depending on the photographer's hourly rate, hosting plan, and add-ons like floor plans or drone shots. Commercial properties usually cost more per shoot but less per square foot. The calculator estimates the price for any specific property in seconds. Q: Is the calculator free? Yes, fully free. It runs entirely in your browser — no account, no signup, no per-quote charge. WGAN maintains it as a free tool for the global 3D capture community. Q: Does WGAN see my quotes or client data? No. There's no backend, no database, no server-side storage. Templates and settings live in your browser's localStorage only. Quote details never leave your device unless you explicitly share a link. Q: What scanners are supported? Matterport Pro 2, Matterport Pro 3, iGUIDE PLANIX, Giraffe 360, Realsee Galois, plus a custom preset. Each spec (seconds per scan, sqft per scan, setup time) is editable per-quote so you can match your actual shooting speed. Q: Can I send the PDF to a client without revealing my hourly rate or costs? Yes. "Download Client Estimate" produces a sanitized PDF that hides your hourly rate, hosting cost line, and raw-cost subtotal. The client sees a bundled "3D virtual tour package" line plus individual add-ons and a clean total. "Download Internal Estimate" is your separate cost-basis copy. Q: Can I white-label the PDF with my own brand? Yes. Toggle "Include WGAN branding" off before downloading. The PDF removes the WGAN logo, footer attribution, and any WGAN visual signal. Your business name (entered once and saved locally) appears as the letterhead on every PDF. Q: Does it support metric units and non-USD currencies? Yes. Sqft/sqm toggle plus USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD, NZD, JPY, CHF, and custom currency codes. Display only — no FX conversion, so enter your prices in whichever currency you charge. Q: Can I save my pricing as a template? Yes. Save your scanner, rate, hosting plan, add-on prices, pricing model, currency, and unit as a named template. Load it for any future quote in two clicks. Export/import JSON to move templates between browsers. — — — → Try it: calc.wgan.info No signup. No credit card.
