About Onyx Owl

Our History

Onyx Owl was founded in 2017 when Matterport tours were still a new technology and Andy had a college internship creating 3D tours of vacant office spaces for a property management company. Our founder Claudia Murray had the vision to apply this technology to real estate (something that was unusual at the time, believe it or not)

Since then, we have completed over 700 3D tours from small residential homes in Maine, to a chain of convenience stores in the Mid-West, to large hotels & commercial properties throughout the Northeast. 

The technologies available to customize and maximize the interactive capabilities of 3D tours have changed exponentially since we started out and we have always done our best to grow and adapt with the technology along the way. 


What's an Onyx Owl?

The name "Onyx Owl" is, first of all, an alliteration which we think is always a fun start for a company name. However, the name itself comes from the first 3D camera that we used, the Matterport Pro2, which is a black box that rotates 360º... like an owl!


Once we found our name we've had our fair share of fun with it;  we named our product bundles "Kit and Ca-hoot-le" and "2 Birds, 1 Stone", we feature "A 3D Tour Can Make "Owl" the Difference" on our business cards, and a if we're busy when you give us a call, you'll hear a fun message on our voicemail as well.

We truly believe there is no better way to digitally recreate the immersion and interacivity offered by a 'real life' experience than a Matterport 3D tour!

3D Tour Interactivity

About Matterport 3D tours

3D tours go beyond traditional photography and videography services. They offer a uniquely interactive experience that transports you into a digital replica of the space and allows the viewer to control where they go, what they see, and how long they stay. 

See for yourself - click on one of the links at the bottom of the page to be transported to a new location where you can walk through a home, go up/down stairs, turn 360-degrees to see each room, and stay as long as you'd like. 

This is the future of how we will explore!

Residential Uses

Realtors and rental agents can have their clients "walk" through dozens of homes and apartments without having to spend hours traveling to each site. This also ensures the people you are setting up in-person showings with are serious about the space and not just a nosy neighbor.

Vacationers can browse rental homes & apartments to find the ideal place for their summer getwaway with no surprises on arrival.

Commercial Uses

Hotels, venues, clinics, and businesses of all types can show prospective clients their atmosphere, products and location. Allowing people to see first-hand what sets them apart.

 
There's also the added back-end benefits of being able to create floor plans and use the digital replica of the building and all of the equipment inside to help expedite future insurance claims.
