Tip: Try PIX4Dcatch with a 14-day free trial, learn how to here: Trial License
(1) PIX4Dcatch Standard refers to any Pix4D valid license holder including at least one the following:
Note: All Pix4D users with a paid Pix4D license or active trial license are considered valid license holders. One Time Charge (OTC) licenses (so-called "perpetual") need to have an active Support and Upgrade (S&U).
(2) If you purchased a PIX4D-adapted viDoc RTK (distributed by Pix4D) before Sept 1st, 2024, you will be able to connect with the PIX4Dcatch app without a license, for the life of your viDoc.
Moreover, you will be able to use the Premium features (AR points, use Autotags, volume computation...) without a PIX4Dcatch Professional license.
Note: Export will still need a valid Pix4D license, as described in the above table.
If you did not buy your viDoc distributed from Pix4D, please contact Pix4D sales for options.
(*) Feature only available for users with a valid PIX4Dcloud License
Note: Exporting a project requires a valid license for desktop or cloud products with S&U (Support and Upgrade).
