A developer just killed the real estate walkthrough industry by scanned an entire house with his phone. Uploaded it.
Now anyone on Earth can walk through it in a browser tab. No app. No VR. No agent. No appointment.
Click → you’re inside. Every room. Every angle. Every shadow. Photoreal.
The economics are brutal for the old model:
→ Agent fee on a $500k home: $15,000
→ Cost to produce this scan: roughly $200
→ Time to "tour" 50 houses: one evening
→ File size: smaller than a TikTok clip
The science is wild too:
It runs on 3D Gaussian Splatting instead of polygons.
Millions of tiny glowing splats of color and depth reconstruct the scene from your photos, and it loads photoreal on a phone.
Freelancers are already charging $300 to $800 per scan for realtors, Airbnbs, venues, and dealerships.
One person + one phone + one weekend = a business.
Open source. Built on PlayCanvas.
