FAQ

Answers for teams replacing static galleries with guest-ready 360 tours.

What is a short-let Property Guide?

It is a hosted 360 room tour with guest-ready instructions attached to the space: check-in, Wi-Fi, parking, amenities, safety, maintenance controls, and direct booking prompts.

What can I upload?

The commercial MVP is built around 360 room panoramas from a phone panorama workflow, 360 camera, or existing panorama files. Premium 3D can be switched on later without making the guest-guide product depend on reconstruction.

Is SceneHost a Matterport alternative?

SceneHost is a lightweight alternative for hosts who need guest guidance and direct booking confidence more than a hardware-heavy scan.

Where do tours fit in my STR workflow?

Use SceneHost links in paid ads, email campaigns, social posts, direct booking pages, guest pre-arrival messages, QR codes, and owner reports.

What analytics are included?

SceneHost focuses on practical STR signals: tour views, room views, guide item clicks, navigation clicks, direct booking clicks, and readiness gaps before publishing.
