Software, 3D and AI engineering · Istanbul / Berlin / New York
Virtual tours and 3D architectural rendering are now the marketing backbone of real estate, hospitality, museums, automotive, factories and education. Online property listings with a virtual tour outperform plain listings by 2.5-3.2x conversion (hospitality), 2.1x click-through (real estate) and 1.6x application rate (universities).
Four virtual tour categories in 2026: 1. 360° photo tour (Insta360, Ricoh Theta) — fast and cheap, not true 3D 2. Matterport / dollhouse 3D — real 3D mesh, gold standard for real estate 3. WebGL real-time tour (Three.js, Babylon.js, Unreal Pixel Streaming) — for unbuilt projects, configurators, AVMs 4. Digital twin tour — IoT + sensors + live data overlays for factories, malls, hospitals
Typical pricing bands (Turkey, 2026, ex-VAT):
| Scope | Range (TRY) |
| Single-location 360° photo tour | 8K - 25K |
| 200m² residential Matterport scan | 15K - 45K |
| Hotel multi-area scan | 80K - 250K |
| AVM / factory multi-floor 3D + 360° | 150K - 600K |
