Service Pricing Guide
Project-based pricing tailored to your specific needs. Every project is unique—contact us for an accurate quote based on your requirements.
Regional Pricing Note
All pricing on this page reflects average rates for projects in the United States. Actual costs vary by metro area based on local cost of living, provider availability, permit requirements, and project access complexity. For example, rates in New York City or San Francisco will differ from those in smaller markets.
For international projects, pricing is further customized based on regional regulations, equipment logistics, and local market conditions. As a globally operating company serving clients across the Americas, Europe, and the Middle East, THE FUTURE 3D provides location-specific quotes for every project.

What Affects Pricing?
Understanding the factors that influence project costs
Project Size
Square footage is the primary cost driver for most services
Complexity
MEP density, multiple floors, and difficult access increase time and cost
Deliverables
Scope of deliverables affects pricing — registered point clouds vs. full scan data packages
Timeline
Rush projects requiring expedited delivery may incur additional fees
Location
Travel costs apply for projects outside primary service areas
Access
After-hours, security requirements, or difficult access may affect pricing
