3DBAE vs Sayduck

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.

Sayduck is a 3D product visualization and augmented reality platform for eCommerce brands and manufacturers. Shoppers can rotate products and explore variations such as colors, materials, sizes, and components through a configurator, then preview items in their own space using a mobile browser without downloading an app. The platform can generate product photos and lifestyle scenes from 3D models and includes a library for managing models, variants, materials, scenes, and configurations. Businesses can embed experiences in Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, or custom sites. Its BigCommerce app syncs product data and supports real-time updates to pricing, images, and inventory; API access supports custom interfaces and navigation. The viewer works in most modern mobile and desktop browsers, and Sayduck says it is less than 500 kB and requires no plug-ins. A 3D model is needed for the viewer and augmented reality, with OBJ, glTF, and GLB uploads supported. Subscription pricing is on request, and a free 14-day trial is available. Very simple 3D model creation starts at 179 USD.
