Augment vs WorkLink Create

Augment creates real-time 3D product views at real-world scale for e-commerce and in-person selling. Its AR Viewer supports ARKit and ARCore, works as a standalone app or inside a customer app, and synchronizes offline for use without connectivity. The web 3D Viewer embeds in webpages, supports modern browsers, and also works in mobile apps. A JavaScript Web SDK adds web-based 3D and AR visualization while checking integration keys against authorized domains. The 3D Vault organizes uploaded models with private or public settings; stored models cannot be downloaded. Supported files include OBJ, Collada, KML, 3ds, PLY, and STL, with uploads up to one million polygons and textures of any size. Teams manages users, teams, model and place access, and usage analytics. Small Business costs $42 a month, billed PUPM, with a four-user minimum; a 14-day trial is available.

WorkLink Create is a browser-based, no-code platform for building augmented reality experiences from CAD and other 3D information. Authors can make step-by-step work instructions, training modules, and assessments with quizzes, using an AI-assisted visual editor. Supported formats include FBX, OBJ, and GLB, with additional CAD formats in cloud deployments. The platform publishes native CAD content for Windows, iOS, and Android; viewing also works on iOS and Android phones and tablets, HoloLens 2, and Apple Vision Pro. WorkLink CMS organizes and distributes content, while the WorkLink App is used to view experiences. Collaboration tools include shared 3D interactions, real-world annotations, shared-view instructions, and call recording. Integrations span PLM, MES, MRO, and ERP systems, plus GraphQL API, deep links, webhooks, and IoT. Dashboards, productivity insights, audit logs, and user and content administration support oversight. Cloud and on-premises deployment are available. The cloud authoring version recommends a current Chromium-based browser; Firefox is not officially supported. Pricing is on request.
