Show your products and spaces in 3D. No code needed.

== Description ==

**Show your products and spaces in 3D. No code needed.**

Turn regular videos or photos into interactive 3D models that people can spin, zoom, and explore on your website.

= What Visitors Can Do =

* **Spin products around** - See every angle, not just staged photos
* **Zoom into details** - Check textures, finishes, fine print
* **Walk through spaces** - Virtual tours of properties, stores, venues
* **Click info points** - Tap annotations to reveal details, images, links

= What You Can Do =

* **Upload phone videos/photos** - Our AI turns them into 3D models
* **Pick from your library** - Connect your Scan the World account, choose models from your dashboard to display
* **Add to any page** - Click, select your model, done
* **Annotate key features** - Drop markers anywhere on the model
* **Create video tours** - Export for Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts

Zero coding. Just point, click, publish.

= Who Uses This? =

* **Online Stores** - Jewelry, furniture, collectibles, anything where details matter
* **Real Estate Agents** - Property walkthroughs without scheduling showings
* **Tourism Sites** - Preview hotels, attractions, venues
* **Museums** - Display artifacts people can examine closely
* **Interior Designers** - Show off completed projects

= How It Actually Works =

1. Log into your Scan the World account (sign up free if you don't have one)
2. Upload photos/videos of whatever you want to show in 3D
3. Our platform creates the model (usually takes a few minutes)
4. On WordPress, add a block and select which model to display
5. It appears on your page

That's it. No embed codes to copy-paste. No iframes to wrestle with. Just browse your models and insert them.

= Why People Love This =

Regular product photos hide flaws and don't show scale. People guess. Then they return stuff.

3D models? They see exactly what they're getting. They rotate it. Zoom in. Check detail.

Result: Fewer "this isn't what I expected" returns and more confident buyers!

= Technical Stuff (Don't Worry About It) =

Works on phones, tablets, desktops. Loads fast. Looks smooth. Integrates with Shopify too if you sell there.
