WGAN Special Offer: Start for free and get up to 1,500 images — that’s 25 listings with up to 60 photos each — edited at no cost when you subscribe to any paid plan (includes a 7-day money-back guarantee). Use the We Get Around Network affiliate link: www.WGAN.info/fotello and enter Voucher Code: WGAN --- In this WGAN-TV Podcast, Guest Host Tom Sparks, Founder and CEO of Scan Your Space (a Division of Sparks Media Group), showcases a real-world head-to-head comparison: the Fotello AI-powered photo editing platform versus a traditional human editor — with insights from REALTOR® and professional photographer Bruno Versaci. Tom uploads 195 bracketed images to Fotello, enables preferences like sky replacement and auto perspective correction, and receives a full gallery of edits within minutes — including a quick preview in just 4 minutes. Bruno evaluates the results and gives Fotello an A for quality, noting the crispness, vibrant tones, and impressive window pulls. Key takeaways from the episode: ✓ Speed + Quality: the Fotello edits are agent-ready fast — making urgent listings possible in under 30 minutes. ✓ Customization Options: Post-edit controls inside Fotello allow fine-tuning like contrast, exposure, and image style presets (e.g., Airy, Natural, Deep). ✓ Human vs AI quirks: Bruno points out subtle issues like inconsistent wall color rendering (white versus peach) and missed cable removal — but he also notes that the Fotello revision request feature makes corrections easy. ✓ AI tools evolving fast: New features include adding realistic fireplace flames and screen images to blank TVs — previously requiring Photoshop. ✓ Cost efficiency: For high-volume shooters, Fotello can cut editing expenses by hundreds per month — and Fotello will price match your current editor. Bruno emphasizes that while he sometimes uses Photoshop for fine details (like removing cords or furniture imprints), Fotello saves time and delivers impressive results — especially for agents and photographers with tight deadlines.

398. WGAN-TV-First Person Point of View (PoV) Giraffe360 GO Cam Warehouse Walkthrough and Final Giraffe360 Deliverable Review

7/14/2025
In this WGAN-TV Podcast, guest host Tom Sparks, Founder and CEO of Scan Your Space (a Division of Sparks Media Group), field-tests the Giraffe360 GO Camera in a real-world warehouse environment — walking through the scanning process, testing still photos, and reviewing the final deliverables. Tom captures multiple scan points inside a large warehouse on Mare Island, California, using the Giraffe360 GO Camera. Scans take around 58 seconds each, and the camera’s SLAM-like behavior allows it to record measurement data while being carried — enabling floor plan generation with minimal scan points. Tom uploads the project to the cloud later that day and receives the completed 3D tour, floor plan, and still photo by the following morning. --- The Giraffe360 GO Camera is designed for real estate agents who want an easy-to-use, all-in-one camera for creating professional-looking property tours without needing extra devices. In contrast, the Giraffe PRO Camera is built with the advanced features and control that real estate photographers expect — making it ideal for high-volume professionals seeking refined results and maximum image quality. --- Tom's final verdict? The Giraffe360 GO delivers a fast, user-friendly workflow without needing a tablet or phone. He finds the 12MP still photo useable, the ANSI 765–compliant floor plan impressive, and the 3D tour polished. However, he suggests slower transitions and Ken Burns-style effects in the auto-generated video for better viewer experience.

395. WGAN-TV-Fotello AI Real Estate Photo Editing Versus My Human Photo Editors

7/5/2025
WGAN Special Offer: Start for free and get up to 1,500 images — that’s 25 listings with up to 60 photos each — edited at no cost when you subscribe to any paid plan (includes a 7-day money-back guarantee). Use the We Get Around Network affiliate link: www.WGAN.info/fotello and enter Voucher Code: WGAN --- In this WGAN-TV Podcast, Guest Host Tom Sparks, Founder and CEO of Scan Your Space (a Division of Sparks Media Group), showcases a real-world head-to-head comparison: the Fotello AI-powered photo editing platform versus a traditional human editor — with insights from REALTOR® and professional photographer Bruno Versaci. Tom uploads 195 bracketed images to Fotello, enables preferences like sky replacement and auto perspective correction, and receives a full gallery of edits within minutes — including a quick preview in just 4 minutes. Bruno evaluates the results and gives Fotello an A for quality, noting the crispness, vibrant tones, and impressive window pulls. Key takeaways from the episode: ✓ Speed + Quality: the Fotello edits are agent-ready fast — making urgent listings possible in under 30 minutes. ✓ Customization Options: Post-edit controls inside Fotello allow fine-tuning like contrast, exposure, and image style presets (e.g., Airy, Natural, Deep). ✓ Human vs AI quirks: Bruno points out subtle issues like inconsistent wall color rendering (white versus peach) and missed cable removal — but he also notes that the Fotello revision request feature makes corrections easy. ✓ AI tools evolving fast: New features include adding realistic fireplace flames and screen images to blank TVs — previously requiring Photoshop. ✓ Cost efficiency: For high-volume shooters, Fotello can cut editing expenses by hundreds per month — and Fotello will price match your current editor. Bruno emphasizes that while he sometimes uses Photoshop for fine details (like removing cords or furniture imprints), Fotello saves time and delivers impressive results — especially for agents and photographers with tight deadlines.
