BlippBuilder vs TotalAR

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.

TotalAR helps organizations connect printed materials to augmented-reality content. Users scan a printed image or TAR code in the app to open associated videos, website URLs, contact details, 2D or 3D animation, or feedback and survey forms. Experiences can use image or marker tracking, TAR code scanning, or location-based AR. The platform reports how many customers viewed or interacted with campaign content and accepts YouTube video links. Its AR Bot can be integrated into an existing mobile app through an API, with technical support from TotalAR's team. The app supports iOS and Android phones and tablets and requires an internet connection over Wi-Fi or mobile data. The consumer app is a free download, though brands may charge for content. Basic Free costs nothing and allows five TAR codes and 100 scans per month. Pro is $90 a month, billed annually; Enterprise is $250 a month, billed annually. TotalAR does not accept duplicate target images.
