DuskCam™

Shot on an iPhone with DuskCam

Twenty minutes, one empty house, an iPhone 14 Pro: no photographer and no editing service. Every window still shows the view.

Why I'm building it

Twilight photos sell houses, but a twilight shoot costs extra, and "virtual twilight" edits fake the sky. DuskCam takes a series of real exposures at dusk and blends them on the phone, so you get the real sky, the real lit windows and the real house.

What it does

• Interior: bracketed exposures blended so the room and the view out the window both look right, with straight verticals
• Exterior: bracketed daytime exteriors with true colors and straight lines
• Twilight: a real blue-hour series, stacked for clean, low-noise results
• Moonlit and Night Sky: for land, vineyards and rural listings after dark
• Dusk time-lapse: flicker-free 4K video for listing reels
• Twilight & moon planner: blue-hour times and moon position for any listing address, with a reminder
• MLS-ready, color-corrected JPEGs, processed on the phone. No AI and nothing is uploaded.

Who it's for

• Listing agents and teams who shoot their own photos: a full listing set in one visit, consistent from room to room, ready to upload to the MLS before you leave the driveway
• Vacation-rental and short-term-rental hosts: bright rooms, the real view out the window, and the hot tub, deck or fire pit at real dusk. Photos that match what guests find when they arrive.
• Cabins, glamping and dark-sky stays: real moonlit and starry-night shots of the property, not a stock sky
• Property managers: rental listings reshot between tenants in minutes, with no photographer to schedule and no editing bill
• Builders and remodelers: finished-project and spec-home photos for your website and portfolio, including the twilight hero shot
• Outdoor and holiday lighting installers: your work only shows after dark. Real twilight photos of every finished job, with the lights and the house both exposed right.
• Wineries, wedding venues and event spaces: bright tasting rooms and halls, the patio at real dusk, and the night sky over the grounds
• Home stagers and interior designers: bright, true-color before-and-after photos of every room you finish

Pay the way you work

• Try it free: your first 3 Interior or Exterior photos are full quality, with no watermark. The Twilight & Moon Planner is always free.
• Just one property? A Property Pass is $14.99 for every mode at one property for 60 days. Shoot as many photos as you need, come back for twilight, reshoot after staging. No subscription to cancel.
• Shoot every week? DuskCam Pro covers every property: $79.99 a year with a 7-day free trial, or $12.99 a month.

No per-photo fees on any plan. For comparison, a pro listing shoot usually runs $150 to $300, and a single "virtual twilight" edit can cost more than a whole Property Pass.

Your photos are processed on your iPhone and never uploaded. A Property Pass checks that you're at the property using your phone's location, on the phone itself; if you keep location off, it goes by the address you enter.
