SUNNYVALE, Calif., July 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Matterport, Inc., the leading spatial data company driving the digital transformation of the built world that has entered into a definitive agreement for a business combination with Gores Holdings VI (NASDAQ: GHVI, GHVIU, and GHVIW), today announced the expansion of Matterport Capture Services™ On-Demand to 14 new U.S. cities in Texas, Illinois, Washington, Colorado, Florida, Georgia and Idaho. Last month, the company launched the service in 12 cities in California, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and has now made the service available to customers in a total of 26 cities across the country.
As simple as ordering an Uber®, Capture Services On-Demand lets Matterport customers within a 35-mile radius of these cities quickly schedule a highly-trained Matterport Capture Technician to digitize any commercial or residential property or unique space, such as a yacht or an aircraft. Once captured, the space is transformed into an immersive and precise 3D digital twin and delivered to the customer's account to access, manage and share the space more effectively than ever before.
Digital twins are already transforming how buildings are designed, built, promoted, and managed online across a variety of industries, including real estate, retail, insurance, hotels, factories, schools, and museums. Research has shown that Matterport digital twins generate more revenue for property owners, higher conversions of visitors to bookings for vacation rentals, and up to 50% savings in facilities management costs.
"We provide architectural and engineering online services for homeowners, so it is essential for us to have a reliable source of field data," said Yuri Galeev, CEO of CONSTRUCTO based in San Jose, California. "We have been using Matterport for quite some time so it was an easy decision for us to switch to Capture Services On-Demand as soon as it became available. In addition to all the benefits the Matterport solution delivers, we now have access to a vast network of professional technicians across the country who can support our rapid deployment in new markets. We're a fast-growing company and it is important for us to have a reliable partner, who can keep up with our expansion plans and Matterport delivers big time."
Capture Services On-Demand democratizes access to Matterport's groundbreaking 3D capture technology by offering individuals, small businesses and large enterprises a fast, simple and cost-effective way to digitize spaces. In just a few clicks, customers can schedule an appointment with the company's network of vetted, trusted, and highly experienced Capture Technicians equipped with Matterport's leading capture solution, the Pro2 camera and Capture App. This simple online ordering experience saves customers time spent on finding, researching, and establishing relationships with Matterport's existing network of trusted 3D capture technicians.
Customers can log in to their account and choose the date and time to book their capture appointment. Pricing is based on property size and location and customers receive a price estimate prior to checking out for full transparency. Once the capture is complete, a precise Matterport digital twin of the space is then delivered into their account for immediate use. Thousands of spaces are captured every month with Capture Services including co-working locations, construction sites, vacation rentals and retail shops.
"Customers in a variety of industries have come to rely on the value of 3D digital twins, whether supporting the design, building, selling or leasing of a space; managing a property remotely; generating critical data to support a renovation, and more," said Brendan Dowdle, GM of Matterport Capture Services. "We're excited to extend Capture Services On-Demand to 14 more cities. Now, customers in 26 cities across the United States can rely on a single trusted network to order and receive digital twins seamlessly, and cost effectively."
