Nira is a browser viewer that streams large photogrammetry, point clouds, and Gaussian splats so a team can measure and mark up a model on a phone or a desktop without a native app.
A drone map or a film scan is often too heavy to email and too awkward to open on site. Nira streams that model in the browser, including on iOS and Android browsers, so someone can orbit, measure, and mark it up from a link. The homepage frames that as inspection for construction, survey, and media work.
The same viewer takes meshes, point clouds, Gaussian splats, orthophotos, and gigapixel photos. Photogrammetry apps are pointed at OBJ, and the format list also includes STL, PLY, ABC, DAE, FBX, glTF, and GLB. Design overlays can come in as DXF. There is no hard file-size cap, though Nira suggests keeping a single asset at or under 100 million triangles if you want the fastest load.
Sharing can be a URL, with an optional password on the asset. The Professional plan adds user accounts, model compare, volume and slope measurements, branding, and an iframe embed. Enterprise adds SSO, upload and viewer APIs, white label, and on-prem or self-hosted installs, which Nira limits to companies with 200 or more employees and prices as an extra license.
Storage is counted in triangles, texture gigapixels, photo gigapixels, points, and splats, not in file megabytes. Deleting an asset lets you shrink the pool, and the unused portion comes back as account credit rather than a refund to the card. Cards cover Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, Diners Club, and JCB. ACH or a wire is a request, not a button on the page.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Published monthly and yearly rates, plus a 15-day trial with no card
- Works in a phone browser, so there is no app install

Cons
- The Individual plan is only for a one-person business under $200,000 a year in revenue, with no venture funding
- The Yearly toggle shows a per-month rate and does not print the annual invoice total
- On-prem hosting is limited to companies with 200 or more employees and is an extra license
- Enterprise features can be added one at a time, and those prices are not on the page
Key features
Browser viewer: Meshes, point clouds, Gaussian splats, orthophotos, and gigapixel photos, including on iOS and Android browsers.
Mesh formats: OBJ, STL, PLY, ABC, DAE, FBX, glTF, and GLB. Nira suggests OBJ from photogrammetry tools.
Markup and measure: Callouts, annotations, measurements, and PDF inspection reports. Volume and slope are on Professional.
Share a link: Anyone with the URL can view. Each asset can have a password. Professional adds user accounts.
Embed: An iframe embed of the viewer requires Professional. Other plans can still share a URL.
Storage pools: Included triangles, textures, photos, points, and splats differ by plan, and extra blocks have published add-on rates.

15-day trial, no credit card, on Individual, Professional, and Enterprise blocks of the pricing page. Nira says you see exact pricing on the billing page after you upload.
Enterprise (contact sales)
Contact sales
Custom pricing. Includes SSO, APIs, white label, and optional on-prem or self-hosting. On-prem is only for companies with 200 or more employees and has an extra license fee. Enterprise features can be added a la carte. No public dollar amount.
Individual (yearly billing)
per month
$19.00
Yearly toggle shows $19/month. The page does not print a 12-month invoice total, so this is the displayed monthly rate for yearly billing, not a calculated annual sum. Ask about the charge after the trial.
Individual (monthly)
per month
$24.00
Monthly toggle on the vendor site shows $24/month. For students, individuals, and single-person entities only. The qualifier tooltip says the business must be only you, under $200,000 a year in revenue, and without VC funding.
Professional (yearly billing)
per month
$119.00
Yearly toggle shows $119/month. The page does not print a 12-month invoice total. Ask about the charge after the trial.
Professional (monthly)
per month
$149.00
Monthly toggle shows $149/month. Adds compare, volume and slope, branding, embeds, and user accounts on top of Individual.
Prices come from each vendor’s public listings and can change. Double-check the current price on the vendor site before you buy.
Frequently asked questions
How much does Nira cost?
On the pricing page, Individual is $24 per month, or $19 per month when the Yearly toggle is selected. Professional is $149 per month, or $119 per month on the Yearly toggle. The page does not print a 12-month total, so those yearly figures are the monthly rates it displays, not a calculated annual invoice. Enterprise is custom, and a 15-day trial does not ask for a card.
Who can buy the Nira Individual plan, and what storage is included?
Individual is for students, individuals, and a one-person business. The qualifier says that means only you, under $200,000 a year in revenue, and no VC funding. Included storage is 100 million triangles, 20 gigapixels of textures, 100 gigapixels of photos, 100 million points, and 10 million splats. Professional raises that to 400 million triangles, 50 gigapixels of textures, 200 gigapixels of photos, 500 million points, and 40 million splats.
How much extra storage does Nira charge?
Add-on blocks on a monthly plan are $4 per month per 100 million triangles, $4 per month per 10 gigapixels of textures, $1 per month per 20 gigapixels of photos, $4 per month per 500 million points, and $4 per month per 10 million splats. On yearly billing those blocks drop to $3, except photos, which stay at $1. Shrinking the pool after a delete returns prorated account credit, not a refund to the card.
Does Nira work on iPhone and Android?
Yes, in the browser. The homepage says any iOS and Android browser, and it describes the product as web-based visualization on phones and tablets. There is no separate desktop operating system, because the viewer is a website. A native app is not listed.
What 3D formats can Nira open?
Meshes can be OBJ, STL, PLY, ABC, DAE, FBX, glTF, or GLB, and Nira suggests OBJ from photogrammetry tools such as RealityCapture, Metashape, ContextCapture, DJI Terra, and Pix4Dmapper. Point clouds, Gaussian splats, orthophotos, and gigapixel photos are also listed. DXF is named for design overlays. IFC is not in that format list.
How does Nira compare with sending a model file?
Nira is built to stream a heavy model in the browser and let other people measure and annotate from a link, including with a per-asset password. An iframe embed of that viewer requires the Professional plan. A plain URL works on every plan. It is not an authoring tool, and it does not replace the photogrammetry app that created the mesh.
