COI Disclosure Regarding Recent Edits
[edit]Hello, I'm Niranjan Ramamurthy. As disclosed on my user page (Niranjan Ramamurthy), I have a conflict of interest regarding this topic as a professional in the 3D documentation field.
I have just completed a series of substantive edits to the article, and I am posting here to be fully transparent about them. My goal was to improve the article's overall neutrality and comprehensiveness using high-quality, third-party sources.
The main changes include:
- Technical Fixes: Corrected two broken citations in the "Cameras" section.
- Business Context: Added sourced analysis to the "History" section detailing the company's post-SPAC financial performance and the strategic rationale for the CoStar acquisition.
- Expanded Criticisms: Added specific, sourced details about the 2023 class-action lawsuit to the "Criticisms" section, citing the Reuters report.
- Market Analysis: Added a sourced paragraph to the "Capture Services" subsection explaining the channel conflict between Matterport's direct services and its professional user base.
All edits were made with clear edit summaries. I welcome the community to review my contributions and am happy to discuss any of the changes here. Thank you. Niranjan Ramamurthy (talk) 22:50, 16 September 2025 (UTC)

COI: I run an agency in India that operates as a Matterport Service Partner (MSP). I'm trying to flag some factual gaps and missing legal/product developments here rather than editing the article myself to respect the guidelines. I'm only spending time here because it's the industry I work in. Here we go:
- Zillow dispute: Zillow removed Matterport 3D tours from its listings and StreetEasy on October 20, 2025. Zillow said this was due to CoStar not renewing a Matterport API agreement and updating its media terms to restrict use on competing portals. CoStar disputed this, saying its terms did not specifically restrict Matterport tours, and that the removal was Zillow's unilateral decision. The dispute is still ongoing as of 2026.
