Spline
Browser-based 3D design tool with real-time collaboration and AI-powered 3D object generation.
About Spline
Spline is an intuitive browser-based 3D design tool that brings 3D design capabilities to designers without requiring deep 3D modeling expertise. With a no-code approach, Spline lets users build and manipulate 3D objects, animations, and interactions visually, making 3D design accessible to web designers, product designers, and creative teams.
The tool features real-time collaboration where team members can work together on the same 3D scene simultaneously, similar to Figma's collaborative editing. Spline includes an optional AI add-on that can generate 3D objects or textures from text prompts, helping users create assets faster without manual modeling.
Spline's outputs can be exported for web use with code, making it practical for integrating 3D elements into websites and applications. The platform supports video imports, asset libraries, and version history. With plans ranging from free to $36/month for teams, Spline is positioned as the go-to tool for designers who want to add 3D elements to their work without learning complex 3D software like Blender or Cinema 4D.
