New features: Gated virtual tours, object removal and more

At Giraffe360, we understand that the heart of our innovation comes from the real estate professionals who use our tools every day. Your feedback is invaluable, guiding us to develop features that not only meet but exceed your needs in this dynamic market. We’ve listened closely to what you’ve told us—about your challenges in lead generation, photo editing, and privacy management—and have tailored our latest updates to address these key areas.

Our newest features are designed to empower you with more control, better security, and enhanced efficiency, ensuring you can focus on what you do best: selling properties. From gated virtual tours that secure quality leads to advanced photo editing tools that refine your listings’ presentation, each update is a direct response to your most requested needs.

Here are the features we’ve released recently…

Gated virtual tours: Unlock more engaged buyers

Qualifying leads before they enter your sales funnel can save you immense time and focus your efforts on serious buyers.

Our gated virtual tours feature does exactly that.

Visitors start the virtual tour by viewing the initial scene of your property. To proceed, they must fill out a simple form providing their name, email, and phone number. This process filters out casual browsers while helping you collect valuable leads directly through the tour.

By gating access to the complete virtual tour of your listings, we ensure that only potential buyers who are genuinely interested – and want to begin a dialogue by sharing their contact information – can view detailed property layouts.

Additionally, gating sensitive details of your property layouts enhances security against unauthorised access – something that your privacy-conscious clients will be happy to hear.

Floor plan rotation

High-quality, accurate floor plans reflect your attention to detail and professionalism.

Whether you’d like to preset your floor plan preferences, or edit by project, it’s now easy to manage in your dashboard.

Accurate presentation in your listings’ floor plans can dramatically affect buyer perception. With our building rotation editing feature, ensure every floor plan is perfectly aligned and presented to your preference.

Adjust the rotation of buildings in your project settings, aligning them precisely as they exist in reality. This tool is particularly useful for complex multi-building projects where orientation clarity is key.

Indoor/outdoor photo separation: Streamline customisation

Efficient management of your listing photos directly influences how quickly you can market new properties. Our new indoor/outdoor separation feature categorises your images automatically, allowing you to maintain consistency and style with minimal effort.

Once you upload your photos to our platform, they are automatically sorted into ‘indoor’ and ‘outdoor’ tabs. This lets you quickly apply styling presets individually or across all images, ensuring each photo reflects the desired ambiance of the property.

Not only does this feature allow you to quickly navigate and edit photos without the hassle of sorting them manually, but you can apply a uniform style to all indoor or outdoor photos to ensure your listing has a cohesive look that attracts buyers.

Object removal: Say goodbye to clutter

First impressions matter. Our new object removal tool helps you make the best one by letting you clean up any unwanted items from your property photos.

From small wires to everyday clutter missed in staging that can distract from the property’s best features, you can now remove them effortlessly.

To remove an unwanted item, select the object in your photo, and with a click, our tool removes it, seamlessly blending the space to look as though the object was never there.

Without the distraction of clutter, you can produce pristine images that focus solely on the selling points of your properties.

Blur updates: Save time on adjustments

Our updated blur features give you more control over privacy-sensitive elements in your photos and panoramas.

Delete all blurs

With the option to delete all blurs or adjust them individually, you can quickly ensure that all personal information or identifiable features are obscured, or clear them where necessary, all with minimal clicks.

Copy blurs in panoramas

Consistency in privacy across all panoramas is now easier than ever with our copy blur feature, which lets you replicate specific blur settings across multiple views.

Select a blur that you’ve applied to one part of a panorama, and then simply copy and paste the same blur to other areas that require it, ensuring uniformity and saving time.
