How much does a 360 virtual tour cost in Canada?

The short answer: a single facility starts from $7,000, captured, produced, and hosted for the first year. That is the honest floor for a professional 360 photo virtual tour built the way we build them, and most small and mid-sized spaces land at or near it. See a real one: our Brookfield YMCA at Seton tour, the world's largest YMCA. Below we open the number up so you can see every part of it, then walk through the things that legitimately push a quote higher or lower. No square-foot guesswork, no surprise line items.

What is inside the $7,000 starter

The starter price is not a round number we picked to look tidy. It is three concrete components added together:

• A custom 360 virtual tour at $5,000. This is the build itself: the navigation, the floor logic, the hotspots, the branding, and the production work that turns a set of photographs into a tour someone can actually move through.
• Five professional 360 photos at $110 each, which is $550. These are the capture points inside the space, shot at production grade so signage is readable and materials look like themselves.
• First-year hosting at $1,200. Your tour lives online, served fast and reliably, for the first twelve months.

Add those up and you are at $6,750 of hard components, with the starter set at $7,000 to cover a typical small facility cleanly. After the first year, hosting continues at $1,200 per year, which is $120 per month, per tour.

The building block: priced per photo

We price the capture by the 360 photo, not by the floor area. Additional photos beyond the starter five are from $110 each. A bigger or more complex space simply needs more capture points, so a warehouse with long aisles and a few key rooms might want twelve photos, while a compact showroom is happy with six. You pay for the coverage the space actually needs, and nothing for empty square footage you would never put on screen. We explain why this is fairer in why we price per photo, not per square foot.

Why the per-photo base scales

That $110 base is the starting point for a straightforward, accessible space. Two things move the per-photo number: the quality grade the project calls for, and the risk of the capture itself.

Grade is about how the imagery has to perform. A marketing-facing showroom and an as-built record for a construction file are held to different standards, and the higher the prescribed grade, the more care goes into each shot. Capture risk is about the environment. Working at height, in hazardous or live process areas, inside confined spaces, or under escorted secure access all add time, equipment, and safety overhead per photo. A photo taken from a tripod in a clean lobby and a photo taken on a live industrial deck are not the same unit of work, and the price reflects that honestly rather than hiding it in an average.

The simplest way to think about it: count the views the space needs, set the grade those views have to meet, and account for how hard each one is to safely capture. That is the whole pricing model.

What moves the total up or down

Beyond photo count and grade, a few real factors shift a quote:

• Travel and mobilization. A site far from our base, or one that needs multiple visits to capture around operations, carries more travel and setup cost.
• Add-ons. A tour can stay purely photographic, or you can layer in premium extras: 360 video clips as an accent, background music, embedded media like documents, floor plans, or contact panels. 360 video is an allowed premium add-on, not the core product, and most tours do not need it.
• Access and scheduling. Escorted access, off-hours capture, and safety inductions all factor in. We hold ISN compliance for facilities that require it.

Things that keep a quote lean: a single accessible site, a sensible photo count, standard grade, and a schedule that lets us capture in one visit.

Hosting, year after year

Once the tour is live, hosting is $1,200 per year, which is $120 per month, per tour. That keeps your tour fast, current, and online. If you later add photos or a second area, those are quoted the same transparent way, from $110 per photo, and folded into the same tour.

Multi-site programs

Public-sector and commercial buyers rarely have just one building. Multi-site programs, where we capture a portfolio of facilities under one engagement, typically run $15,000 to $50,000 or more depending on the number of sites, the photo count across them, and the grade each one needs. The per-photo logic still holds; it is simply applied across many locations with one coordinated schedule and one consistent presentation standard.

Industrial pilots

Heavy industrial work is a different animal and is scoped separately. An industrial pilot starts from around $500,000, reflecting the scale, the safety regime, the volume of capture, and the engineering-grade coordination those environments demand. This is not a website-closed purchase, and we scope it with you directly rather than pretending it fits a starter price.

The short version

• One facility starts from $7,000: a $5,000 custom tour, five photos at $110, and $1,200 first-year hosting. Then $1,200 per year per tour.
• More coverage is from $110 per photo, scaling with grade and capture risk.
• Multi-site programs run $15,000 to $50,000 or more; industrial pilots are scoped separately from around $500,000.
