WebXR made easy

Build augmented reality for mobile. No code. No app.

XR Designer is the browser-based studio for creating interactive AR — and publishing it to a link your customers open on their phone. Compose a 3D scene, wire the interactions, share a QR. That's the whole pipeline.

Why WebXR

Augmented Reality without the usual baggage.

Native AR means an app to build, a store to pass, and a team to maintain it. XR Designer collapses all of that into a browser tab and a link.

01

No app store

Your experience opens in the browser. Nothing to download, nothing to approve, nothing to push an update for.

02

No code

Compose scenes and wire interactions visually. If you can use a design tool, you can build AR.

03

No guesswork

What you preview in the editor is exactly what ships — the same scene runs in both, kept honest by parity tests.

Five ways to anchor

Put 3D content anywhere in the real world.

Track a surface, a printed image, a face, the sky, or a place on the map. One studio, five kinds of AR — pick the anchor your idea needs.

World

Drop content onto real surfaces. Tap to place, then drag, pinch and twist into position.

Product viewers · installations · games

Image

Pin a scene to a poster, package or card — flat or cylindrical, with multiple targets.

Packaging · print · collectibles

Face

Track facial features on the front camera to attach masks, makeup and try-on effects.

Filters · makeup · eyewear

Sky

Segment the sky and replace or augment it for atmospheric, large-scale scenes.

Skyboxes · spectacle · brand moments

Location

Anchor content to GPS coordinates picked on a map. Android walks around it outdoors via ARCore; iOS looks around it by compass.

Tours · landmarks · architecture · wayfinding
The editor

A real 3D studio, in a browser tab.

Scene tree, live viewport, inspector and a library dock — the layout pros expect. Drag in a model, drop on a material, scrub a value, and watch the scene update live.

World tracking in the XR Designer editor — a 3D cube anchored to a surface in the live viewport.

Under the hood

Everything a real experience needs.

Not a toy. The depth to ship a scored game, a try-on, or a branded campaign — without opening a code editor.

Interactions

Wire it up. No code.

Connect triggers to actions — tap, proximity and collision flow into move, play, show, score and branch. Add a condition and you've built a quiz, a scored game or a guided sequence, all in a visual graph.

Physics

Gravity, collisions, knock-over.

Flip one switch and everything falls and collides. Tap to shoot a projectile and topple a stack.

AI textures

Generate from a prompt.

Type a description, get a 1024px texture, and drop it straight onto a material. Runs server-side — your key never leaves the vault.

Effects

Fire-and-forget bursts.

One-shot sparkles, confetti, explosions, shockwaves and pulses — triggered on any tap, score or impact.

2D UI / HUD

Screens, buttons, carousels.

A screen-space canvas with buttons, lists and swipeable carousels — wired to the same interactions.

Materials, shaders & motion

A full look-and-feel library.

40+ PBR materials, 29 procedural textures, 24 animated GLSL shaders, 24 animation presets and a scrubbable keyframe timeline — chrome, glass, hologram, fire, dissolve and everything between.

Analytics

Know how every experience performs.

Every experience you publish with XR Designer gets its own dashboard — who's opening it, how long they stay, and where the traffic comes from. Prove the work, don't guess at it.

  • Opens and reach — totals plus the last 7 and 30 days.
  • Average time spent — how long people actually stay in AR.
  • Visitor source — QR, social, web, in-app or direct.
For agencies

Run AR for every client, in one place.

Bring your whole studio into a shared workspace. Organize projects by client, invite your team with the right level of access, and keep brand assets in one library — XR Designer for agencies, on the Ultra plan.

  • Shared workspace — projects and assets your whole team can reach.
  • Roles and seats — owner, editor and client-viewer access.
  • Client organization — keep every brand's work separate and tidy.

From idea to live

Three steps to a shareable AR link.

  1. 01

    Compose your scene

    Start blank or from a template. Drag in objects, models, text and lights; drop on materials; set animations — all in a live viewport at real-world scale.

  2. 02

    Make it interactive

    Wire triggers to actions, add physics and effects, lay out a HUD. Preview as you go, then send a private QR to test it on your own phone.

  3. 03

    Publish to a link

    One click gives you a public page and a QR code. Password-protect it, brand the splash screen, and watch opens and dwell time in the analytics.

Built to trust

What you see is what ships.

The editor and the published experience render from the same scene description, kept in sync by parity tests. Secure by default, with private test links, password-protected shares and per-experience analytics — opens, dwell time and visitor source.

Questions

WebAR, answered.

What is augmented reality (AR)?
Augmented reality (AR) overlays digital content — 3D objects, images or information — onto your view of the real world in real time, usually through a phone or tablet camera. Unlike virtual reality, which replaces your surroundings, AR adds to them. Read the full guide.
What is WebAR?
WebAR is augmented reality that runs in a phone's web browser, with no app to download. A link or QR code opens the camera and overlays interactive 3D content on the real world.
Do my users need to install an app?
No. Experiences built with XR Designer open in any modern mobile browser straight from a link or QR code — nothing to download or approve in an app store.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You compose scenes and wire interactions visually — triggers connect to actions in a graph. Nothing you build requires writing code.
What can I anchor AR content to?
Real-world surfaces, printed images, faces, the sky, and GPS locations — five tracking modes in one studio, so you pick the anchor your idea needs.
How do I publish and share an experience?
Publish to a public link with an auto-generated QR code in one click. You can password-protect it, brand the splash screen, and track opens and dwell time in the analytics.
How much does XR Designer cost?
It's free to build and preview for personal, non-commercial use. Paid plans start at $29.90/month when you need commercial usage, more projects and AI textures — see pricing.
