Agisoft Metashape plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $179/one-time | 4 | Entry tier |
| Professional | $3499/one-time | 6 | +$3320/one-time, 6 more features |
| Floating licence | On request | 3 | Priced on request |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.
Standard
$179/one-timeThe entry tier. It covers photogrammetric alignment, dense cloud, mesh and texture, no georeferencing or coordinate systems, no ground control points, non-commercial and small commercial 3d work.
Professional
$3499/one-timeOver Standard, this tier adds:
- Everything in Standard
- Georeferencing, coordinate systems and ground control points
- Orthomosaic, DEM and point cloud classification
- Multispectral and thermal processing
- Python and Java scripting
- Network and cluster processing
Floating licence
On requestOver Professional, this tier adds:
- Shared across machines rather than node-locked
- Sold through authorised resellers only
- Quoted rather than listed
What the product covers
The full Agisoft Metashape feature record, grouped as the catalogue groups it. This is the product as a whole; the record does not map every feature onto a specific tier.
Other
- Structure-from-motion alignment
- Dense point cloud generation
- Mesh and texture
- Orthomosaic and DEM
- Ground control points
- Point cloud classification
- Multispectral processing
- Python and Java scripting
- Network processing
People bring Agisoft Metashape in for a survey or engineering firm processing high volumes of drone imagery that wants unlimited local processing instead of per-hectare cloud credits, a quarry or mine measuring stockpile volumes monthly, where the same flight is reprocessed repeatedly and cloud pricing by area is punitive, an archaeology or heritage team documenting sites on a capital grant with no recurring software budget to renew a subscription, a vfx or games studio scanning props and environments, where standard at $179 covers the whole requirement because georeferencing is irrelevant. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Agisoft Metashape are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in Maps
Too few maps tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

Before you pay for Agisoft Metashape
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 3 tiers between $179/one-time and On request, with the jump itemised above. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare Agisoft Metashape against the tools that do have one before committing.
Agisoft Metashape runs on windows, macos, linux, and is published by Agisoft LLC of St Petersburg, Russia. The full record is on the Agisoft Metashape review, and the rest of the category is under best maps tools.

In practice it is brought in for a survey or engineering firm processing high volumes of drone imagery that wants unlimited local processing instead of per-hectare cloud credits, a quarry or mine measuring stockpile volumes monthly, where the same flight is reprocessed repeatedly and cloud pricing by area is punitive, an archaeology or heritage team documenting sites on a capital grant with no recurring software budget to renew a subscription.
