3D Product Viewer

A 3D product viewer your customers can rotate, zoom and place in the room

Turn one 3D model into an interactive product experience — published once, embedded anywhere, and ready for augmented reality on the phone your customer already owns.

No credit card required

What a 3D product viewer adds to a product page

Orbit, zoom and pan

Customers turn the product over, move in on a seam or a finish, and look at it from the angle that matters to them.

Animations and annotations

Play an opening mechanism or a folding motion, and pin callouts to the parts worth explaining.

Augmented reality

Place the product on a floor or a table at true scale through iOS AR Quick Look and Android Scene Viewer.

Every major 3D format

Import GLB, GLTF, FBX, OBJ, STL, DAE or a ZIP archive, then swap in a new model version without rebuilding the project.

One embed, any platform

A share link and an iframe snippet work on Shopify, WooCommerce, a custom storefront, a landing page or a native app.

Access you control

Password-protect a share link, restrict which domains may embed it, or hand a client a QR code straight to the model.

Simplio3D 3D viewer embedded across ecommerce platforms

Publish once, embed anywhere

Turn on the share link and Simplio3D generates a unique URL plus a copy-paste iframe snippet. Drop it into a product page, a CMS block, a landing page or a mobile app — the same published project serves all of them. Wrap the iframe in a padding-bottom container and it scales to any breakpoint. Use the Allowed Embed Domains setting to decide exactly which sites are permitted to host it.

Augmented reality placement of a 3D product in a real room

See it in the room, at true scale

Augmented reality runs on the frameworks already built into your customer’s phone — AR Quick Look on iOS and Scene Viewer on Android — so there is no app to install. On desktop, Simplio3D bakes the current view into a GLB snapshot and a configured USDZ, then hands it to the phone through a QR code. Default mode places the product on a floor or table; wearable mode tracks the face, wrist or body for accessories.

When a viewer is not quite enough

A viewer shows one finished product. The moment customers need to choose a material, a size or a component — and see a price move as they do — the project becomes a configurator. Simplio3D keeps both in the same platform, so you can start by publishing a viewer and move up to option blocks, conditional logic and CPQ pricing without changing tools.

Open to your stack — and to AI agents

The @simplio3d/sdk TypeScript client and REST API let your own systems read and write project data headlessly: option blocks, pricing, quote submissions and webhooks. Simplio3D also ships an MCP server, so an assistant like Claude can connect with a scoped token and inspect a real project — audit a configurator, introspect a 3D model, evaluate conditional logic or calculate a price — under a controlled-write model that proposes changes before anything is applied.

How to publish a 3D product viewer

Four steps from a model file to a live embed. No code, and no 3D background required.

  1. Upload your 3D model

    Import GLB, GLTF, FBX, OBJ, STL, DAE or a ZIP archive and organise the scene hierarchy. Model versioning lets you replace the file later without losing the work built on top of it.

  2. Apply materials and textures

    Build PBR materials from your texture maps, or pull ready-made recipes for metal, wood, fabric, glass and plastic from the material library.

  3. Set up the viewer and turn on AR

    Choose the Viewer project type, tune the display and branding settings, then enable AR in the Advanced tab and pick surface or wearable placement.

  4. Share it or embed it

    Enable the share link to get a public URL and an iframe snippet, then paste it into your storefront. Add a password or restrict embed domains if the model is not ready to be public.

Viewer, configurator or modular project?

All three are built in the same editor. The project type is fixed once a project is created, so it is worth choosing deliberately.

Frequently asked questions

A 3D product viewer is an interactive window on your product page that replaces a static photo with the real 3D model. Customers can rotate it, zoom in on details, play animations and — on a phone — place it in their own space with augmented reality.
