Recorded spatial context and live tour questions
Last updated:
For property teams evaluating recorded and live experiences
Matterport is associated with recorded spatial scans and digital twins. CallPano focuses on live conversation around a camera's current view. Those are different jobs, and a property workflow may use both.
30 trial participant-minutes. No credit card required to start.
One live environment. Independent views. Each participant chooses where to look, without changing anyone else’s view.
Decide what the visitor needs to do
Some visitors want to explore recorded spatial material at their own pace. Others want to ask an agent to show a detail right now. Start with that distinction rather than assuming one type of tour replaces the other.
Recorded exploration
A Matterport spatial scan or digital twin can provide captured spatial context for later exploration. Check the product's current capture and hosting options.
Live questions
A CallPano host can respond during a visit, move the camera, and discuss what guests are seeing.
Different movement models
A live panorama offers viewing directions at the camera's current location, not independent navigation through a captured spatial model.
A complementary workflow
Share recorded material before a scheduled live Q&A, then use the conversation to identify any follow-up visit or documentation.
Live video is not a digital twin
CallPano does not turn a live tour into a measured spatial scan or claim to replace Matterport's capture and digital-twin workflow. Compare actual requirements, current vendor documentation, and your own setup tests. There is no universal winner across these different uses.
From room to live 360° in three steps
- 1
Create a Room
Create your host account and set up a room from the dashboard. Schedule your meeting if you want to arrange it in advance.
- 2
Share the Link
Send the invitation to your participants. Guests use a supported browser without a CallPano account or app download. Test permissions and room access before the session.
- 3
Go Live in 360°
Test an Insta360 X4 or X5 through a compatible webcam mode that supplies full panoramic output, not just a flat webcam feed. Camera firmware, computer, and browser compatibility matter. Once the panorama is working, guests can look around independently.

Frequently asked questions
Is CallPano a replacement for Matterport?
Not for every use. Matterport's recorded spatial scans and digital twins serve a different purpose from CallPano's live panoramic conversation. They can complement each other.
Does CallPano generate a measured digital twin?
No such capability is promised here. A live panorama is not a measured scan, navigable digital twin, or verified floor plan.
Can guests ask the host to show a detail?
Yes. In a live session, guests can ask the host to pause or reposition the camera. They cannot independently move the physical camera.
Can I import a Matterport scan into CallPano?
This page does not claim a Matterport import or integration. Use the recorded material and live meeting as separate parts of your workflow.
What setup is needed for the live tour?
An Insta360 X4 or X5 setup needs a compatible webcam mode that supplies full panoramic output. A flat webcam feed is not enough for interactive 360° viewing. Verify the camera, firmware, computer, and browser together before use.
How should I compare costs?
Review each provider's current pricing and the capture, hosting, equipment, and meeting allowances you need. The Free trial includes 30 participant-minutes for new accounts, not a monthly reset. Starter is $29/month, Pro is $99/month, and Enterprise is $299/month. See Pricing for current participant-minute allowances and room limits.
