Kuula review

Kuula ranks first because it answers the most common need: open a 360 photo and let anyone look around it for free. The Basic plan costs nothing and hosts up to 300 posts, with a cap of 100 uploads per month. Kuula's pricing page lists VR viewing on Meta Quest devices and mobile phones, social sharing and website embeds, a tiny planet editor, horizon level correction, and image and text labels in the free tier. Pro adds a virtual tour editor that turns panoramas into walkthroughs, your own logo in links and embeds, unlisted tours, audio clips and built-in video recording, plus room for up to 100,000 posts. Business adds a custom domain, password-protected tours and Google Analytics reporting. The page says all prices are in US dollars, but the figures load through JavaScript, so we list Kuula's paid prices as pending. Kuula hosts and displays photos; you still need a 360 camera or a capture app to shoot them. We compared documented features and published prices.
