A Matterport alternative for homes you cannot scan yet
Matterport captures a finished, furnished space with a camera. PicHome generates a 360° tour from the floor plan alone — so it works for off-plan, empty or pre-renovation homes, costs $1.99 per home instead of hardware plus a subscription, and takes about three minutes. They solve different problems; many agents use both.
At a glance
- No hardware, no site visit: upload a drawing.
- Shows a proposed interior, not the current one — ideal for staging, renovation and new builds.
- Pay per home ($1.99) or a monthly plan with white-label share pages.
- Output includes a walkthrough video for listings and social.

Frequently asked questions
- Is PicHome as accurate as a scan?
- No — it is a rendering of a proposed interior, not a measurement of an existing one. Room positions, doors and windows follow the plan; finishes and furniture are generated.
- When should I use Matterport instead?
- When the space exists and you need a documentary record of it: occupied listings, insurance, facilities.
- Can I embed a PicHome tour like a Matterport one?
- Yes. Team plans get an iframe embed; all plans get a shareable link and video.
