Spline
Spline is the quickest route from a design brief to an interactive 3D scene on a web page, and the AI tools shorten the asset work that used to require a modeller. It is a design tool, not a renderer or a game engine: pick it for landing pages, product hero scenes and prototypes, and expect the credit meter to shape how freely you use the generative features.
Pros
- Browser and desktop editors with live collaboration and exports to web, iOS, Android, video, USDZ and STL
- AI agent, 3D generation, texture and image generation are included from the $12 Hobby seat
- A usable free seat for learning and personal files, with the only hard limit being a watermark on web exports
- Delaware corporation with terms updated in September 2026, a sign the product is being maintained
Cons
- Generative features burn monthly credits that do not roll over, with extra credits at $5 per 1,000
- App-store and video exports start at the $25 to $30 Pro seat, not Hobby
- Per-seat pricing adds up for a team, and version history and SSO are Enterprise-only
- No public API; automation runs through MCP tool calls with limits that scale by plan
