Spline
For web, product, and brand designers who need interactive 3D for marketing sites, product visuals, and playful UI—not a full Blender/C4D film pipeline. Spline is a collaborative browser editor for modeling, materials, motion, and events, with embeds for Webflow, Framer, React, and more. Prefer Figma for 2D UI systems; use heavy DCCs when you need offline high-end 3D.

Use it when
You want production-minded interactive 3D in the browser—hero scenes, 3D logos, product moments—then embed or export into a real website or app without rebuilding in engine code from scratch.
What it does well
- Real-time collaborative 3D editor: modeling, layered materials, states/events, and motion
- Web-first shipping via viewer embeds (Webflow, Framer, React, and more)
- Professional exports for code, Apple, and Android when you leave the browser sandbox
- Hana 2D interactive canvas alongside 3D for hybrid real-time experiences
- Optional Spline AI add-on on Pro/Enterprise for 3D generation, textures, and style transfer
Skip it when
- You need Blender-level sculpting, lookdev, or offline VFX pipelines
- Your source of truth is a 2D product UI system in Figma—not interactive 3D
- Free’s file caps and watermarked web exports block client or production publishes
- You want AI 3D on Free/Starter—Spline AI is a paid add-on on Professional or Enterprise only
- You only need static renders with no interactivity or web embed path
Fits your workflow
Build the scene in Spline → add interactivity → embed on the site or export for app/code on Professional. Start Free to learn; upgrade to Starter to ship without watermarks; choose Professional when you need multi-scene files, code/mobile exports, and optional AI credits. Pair with Webflow/Framer for the surrounding page.
