- Virtual reproduction of aircraft designs and other technically advanced objects;
- Dedicated solutions for designers, constructors, engineers, artists and programmers.
The solutions proposed by Matterport are of interest to, among others, design offices, insurance companies (virtual damage models) or real estate salesmen who, thanks to the digital counterparts, can organise virtual tours of the offered properties serving more clients in a shorter time. According to the company's website, in 2021 Matterport doubled the number of subscribers and 54% increased the number of managed digital spaces. Subscription revenue for the company's offerings increased by 47%, and total revenue for the full year 2021 increased by almost 30% compared to 2020.
