What it is
BlippBuilder is a web-based augmented reality creation tool with a drag-and-drop editor for making experiences with or without coding. It supports surface and marker tracking, along with gyro features, and projects can be previewed in the canvas or on a device using a temporary QR code. Upload formats include JPG, PNG, GIF, MP4, MP3, GLB and glTF. Projects publish to the web and can be shared by QR code or URL; they remain live while the subscription is active. The free Starter plan supports creating, testing and exploring projects, but publishing requires a paid plan. BlippBuilder integrates Sketchfab for browsing and importing free 3D assets; paid Sketchfab models must be downloaded separately and uploaded to the builder. Created content can be experienced on iOS and Android smartphones, desktop, and headsets including Magic Leap 2 and Meta Quest. AR content requires an internet connection. Blippar says it has suspended new subscriptions while upgrading its technology platform architecture.
