A viral thread claims 3D Gaussian Splatting is disrupting real estate: scan a whole house with your phone, upload it, and anyone can walk through every room photorealistically in a browser tab — no app, headset or agent. Math: $200 per scan vs $15,000 commission on a $500K home.
- Quoter jonstephens85 pushes back on the 'just disrupted' framing: 3DGS shipped Aug 2023, Supersplat Aug 2024, PortalCam Sept 2025 — real estate agents are just late adopters.
