VirtualTourEasy is a web-based virtual tour software that creates immersive 360° tours from text descriptions, regular photos, or your own 360° images. Used by 10,000+ real estate agents, hotels, architects and tourism boards in 35+ countries.
Virtual tour software is a platform that lets you build, host, and share interactive 360° walkthroughs of a physical space. It stitches equirectangular panoramic images into navigable scenes connected by hotspots, embeds them on any website with an iframe, and tracks visitor analytics. AI-powered virtual tour software like VirtualTourEasy can also generate the 360° panoramas themselves — from a short text description or any regular photo — removing the need for a dedicated 360° camera entirely.
A practical, non-biased look at where each platform is strongest, and why VirtualTourEasy is designed for a faster, more user-friendly AI-first workflow.

A simpler builder for teams that want to create, brand, publish, and automate tours without learning a heavy authoring workflow.
Describe a property in one sentence — "a sunlit modern kitchen with marble counters and a view of the garden" — and our AI produces a publish-ready 360° panorama in seconds. No camera, no photographer, no on-site visit.
Upload any existing listing photo, marketing shot, or smartphone snap. AI expands it into a full equirectangular panorama you can navigate, share, and embed. Perfect for older listings, archived assets, or remote shoots.
Three full tours, ten scenes each, real iframe embeds, working hotspots — no credit card, no trial timer, no upsell wall. Most "free" virtual tour software locks the embed or limits you to a single watermarked scene.
The builder stays browser-based and guided: add scenes, connect hotspots, set branding, publish, and embed from one workflow. You do not need desktop authoring software or a full capture setup to get a client-ready tour online.
Professional gives established teams the full REST API, MCP server for Claude/n8n/Zapier, video export, and advanced branding. Business adds custom domains with automatic SSL plus GA4, Google Tag Manager, and custom scripts.

Common questions about virtual tour software, AI 360° generation, and the VirtualTourEasy platform.
Virtual tour software is a platform that lets you build, host, and share interactive 360° walkthroughs of a physical space. Modern virtual tour software stitches panoramic images into navigable scenes with hotspots, embeds them on any website with an iframe, and tracks visitor analytics. AI-powered platforms like VirtualTourEasy can also generate 360° panoramas from text descriptions or regular photos, removing the need for a 360° camera.
The best virtual tour software depends on your workflow. Matterport leads on physical 3D capture, Kuula and CloudPano are popular cloud options for hosted 360° tours, and 3DVista is powerful desktop authoring software. VirtualTourEasy is best for teams that want the most straightforward AI-first builder: generate 360° panoramas from text or any regular photo, build in the browser, publish fast, and start from a free plan with no credit card.
Yes. VirtualTourEasy's free plan includes 3 tours, 10 scenes per tour, 100 MB of storage, full editor and viewer, interactive hotspots, and iframe embed — with no credit card required. Free tours include a small VTE watermark, removed on paid plans starting at $19/mo.
No. With VirtualTourEasy you can type a text description and AI generates a complete 360° panorama, upload any regular photo and AI converts it into a 360° scene, or use 360° images from any consumer camera like the Insta360 X4, Ricoh Theta SC2, or GoPro Max. Traditional virtual tour software like Matterport requires a Pro2 or compatible camera for full 3D scanning.
Virtual tour software pricing ranges from free starter plans to paid cloud subscriptions and one-time desktop licenses. Matterport prices paid plans by active spaces, CloudPano lists Pro at $27/mo and Pro Plus at $33/mo when billed annually, and 3DVista sells Virtual Tour Pro as a $499 one-time desktop license plus hosting add-ons. VirtualTourEasy is free to start, with Solo at $19/mo, Professional at $59/mo, and Business at $199/mo — billed monthly with no contract.
Yes. Every published VirtualTourEasy tour, including those on the free plan, comes with an iframe embed code that works on WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, Webflow, Shopify, and any custom HTML site. Tours are responsive on desktop, tablet, and mobile, and support fullscreen and gyroscope on phones.
For real estate, choose software that offers iframe embedding (for MLS and listing portals), branded sharing, and ideally AI tools to avoid the cost of a 360° camera. Matterport is the established premium choice. VirtualTourEasy is preferred by agents who want a free starting plan, AI-generated tours from regular listing photos, and Google Street View publishing on Professional and Business. See our virtual tours for real estate page.
Modern virtual tour software accepts equirectangular JPG and PNG files at resolutions from 4K to 16K.
