3DBAE vs INHAABIT

3DBAE is a browser workspace for creating interactive 3D product experiences and publishing them as embeddable viewers. Its configurator supports material and model variants, hotspots, animation, on-screen controls, interaction logic and a JavaScript Model API. Canvas links images, prompts and AI tools for visual workflows involving product imagery, video and image-to-3D generation. The product lists 12 import formats and 8 export formats, including GLB, glTF, FBX, OBJ, USDZ, STL, PLY, SPLAT, SPZ and SOG. Viewers can be embedded with an iframe, and supported scenes can open in AR on iPhone or Android. Live Link connects Autodesk 3ds Max 2024–2027 on 64-bit Windows to a browser project and syncs the exportable scene. Hobby costs nothing and includes one project, up to two models and two environment assets, and no AI credits. Professional costs $12 a month. Projects remain private unless shared or published; public viewer links and embeds make the scene and rendering files available to people with access.

INHAABIT provides a 3D product configurator and augmented reality platform for retailers and manufacturers selling customisable products. Customers can change options such as materials, finishes, sizes, and components, then view product options and pricing in real time. Configured products can be added to an ecommerce cart. In the Shopify integration, prices can update as selections change, and configuration details are captured with orders. Customers can also use AR to visualise products in their space; smart QR codes connect desktop browsing with a mobile AR experience. Named ecommerce integrations include Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento, WordPress, and WooCommerce, and the platform says it can connect with any CMS or website. INHAABIT says it can onboard products from photos or convert customer CAD files into 3D and AR models. It hosts customer assets on Amazon Web Services and provides ongoing support that includes Apple and Google platform updates. Pricing is based on the number of products onboarded and is available on request. A free demo is offered, but no free trial is specified. The platform lists Android, iOS, and web.
