Film
A slow one-to-three minute walk around the subject on any phone, or 40 to 60 photographs. Once at chest height, once lower down. No scanner, no special app.
Gateway Studio · Desktop software · Windows
Film it.Open it in SketchUp.
Walk around a chair, a facade or a room with your phone. Gateway Studio turns the video into a textured 3D model at real scale — ready for SketchUp, Revit, Rhino or 3ds Max. It runs on your own computer; nothing is uploaded.
A slow walk around
Once at chest height, once lower down. Any phone.
- Windows 10 and 11
- NVIDIA RTX

How it works
Three steps, one afternoon.
No scanner and no survey crew. The phone already in your pocket is the capture device.
Build
Drop the video in. Gateway Studio builds the model and clears away the floor, the room behind and stray bits on its own, while you carry on working. From about ten minutes, depending on the quality you choose and your computer.
Export
Set the scale from one real measurement, erase anything you do not want, and download. Photo texture, real dimensions, pivot on the floor — it arrives in your model the right way up.
Where it goes
Into the software you already use.
Every model downloads in four formats at once, with its photo texture and real dimensions.
- .SKP
SketchUp
Opens with a double-click: one component, true size, smooth surfaces. DAE too, for File › Import.
- .OBJ
Revit
Link as context for as-built work and renovation.
- .OBJ
Rhino · 3ds Max
Clean quads convert straight into SubD and NURBS surfaces.
- .GLB
Blender · Twinmotion · Enscape
Textured and ready for rendering.
- .STL
3D printing
Shape only, at real scale.
What you get
A model you can use the same day.
01
Real scale
Type one measurement — a door height, a table width — and every dimension follows. Sizes read in centimetres or metres.
02
Cleans up after itself
The floor it stood on, the room behind it, ragged edges, even the gaps between a chair's slats are cleared automatically. The eraser cuts along the line you draw, straight or freehand.
03
Detail to suit the job
Light enough for SketchUp, or dense enough for close-up renders. Optional enhanced finishing sharpens the surface and evens the texture.
04
Curved surfaces, properly
Furniture and fittings arrive as a tidy surface you can reshape in Rhino or 3ds Max, not a tangle of scan triangles.
05
From a single catalogue photo
For a basin, a tap or a chair you only have a product photo of, Gateway Studio makes the model from the photo: Balanced from one to four pictures, Sharp detail from one front photo.
06
Honest about what it missed
If glass or a glossy finish leaves holes, the scan says so, shows how much is missing, and offers to make the model from a photo instead.
07
Carry on while it builds
Queue up several models and keep working. Progress stays at the top of every screen, you are told when each one is ready, and a build you no longer need stops at once.
08
Private by design
Client sites and unreleased designs never leave your office. The software works without an internet connection once activated.
What it is not
- A scan is a photo-textured surface, not a parametric model: walls, doors and families are not separated for you.
- Glass, mirrors and plain white walls give the camera nothing to measure; they come out incomplete.
- Whatever the camera never saw — the underside of a seat, the back of a cabinet against a wall — has to be guessed.
Requirements
A workstation you probably own.
The installer checks your graphics card before copying anything and tells you if it falls short.
- System
- Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit
- Graphics
- NVIDIA RTX 20-series or newer, 4 GB video memory or more
- Memory
- 16 GB (needed for the Sharp detail AI)
- Disk
- 30 GB free: up to 19 GB for the software (about 2 GB for scanning only), the rest for scans
- Internet
- To download, to activate the licence and to fetch updates
Licence
Yours to keep.
One licence covers two computers, bought once and never switched off. A yearly plan brings new versions and support; if you let it lapse, the version you have keeps working.
Licence for two computers
₹3,00,000+ GST
A year of new versions included. After that, updates are ₹9,999 + GST a year, only if you want them. Pay online and your key arrives by email as soon as the payment clears.
- One-time licence for two computers
- Annual plan for updates and support
- Unlimited scans, no per-model fees
- GST invoice from NOTPNG Private Limited
For firms and institutions
Licences for teams, offices and colleges.
For a practice with several computers, a group of offices, or a college department: tell us how many people will use it and we will put it together.
01
A demo on your own project
Send a short phone video of something in your office, such as a chair, a facade or a room, and we send back the model to open in SketchUp.
02
A quotation first
A formal quotation or proforma invoice for your approval, and payment by bank transfer if you prefer it to paying online.
03
As many computers as you need
Each licence covers two computers. Several licences go on one order, and each one can be moved to a new computer later.
04
Set up and trained
In Guwahati and the Northeast we install it on your computers and train your team in person. Elsewhere in India, over a video call.
Questions
Before you ask.
Does it need the internet?
Only to download it, activate your licence once and fetch updates. Scanning, processing and exporting all happen on your computer, and it keeps working offline.
Which phone do I need?
Any recent phone that records 1080p or 4K video. Send the original file to your computer — by cable or cloud drive, or on WhatsApp as a document. Ordinary WhatsApp sending shrinks the video and blurs the model.
How accurate is it?
Proportions come from the photographs; absolute size comes from the one measurement you enter, so measure something long — a door, a table top — rather than something small. Check a second known dimension before you rely on the model for fabrication.
What happens if I do not renew the annual plan?
Nothing stops working. You keep the version you have for as long as you like; renewing brings the newer versions and support.
Can I move the licence to a new computer?
Yes. In Gateway Studio, choose Remove from this computer, then enter your key on the new one. If the old computer is gone, write to us and we will free it.
Will it run on my graphics card?
It needs an NVIDIA RTX card (20-series or newer). The installer checks and tells you before copying anything. Older or non-NVIDIA cards can still install it, but scans are slow and low in detail.
