Introduction

Scroll3D is a SaaS platform that makes it easy for any company to create captivating, scroll-driven 3D web experiences. By combining 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS), video, and rich content panels, Scroll3D brings the kind of immersive storytelling previously reserved for teams at Apple and the New York Times to any business.

What is Scroll3D?​

3D web experiences are one of the most engaging ways to present a product or tell a story online. Industry leaders have been adopting scroll-driven 3D narratives as a powerful alternative to static pages and traditional video. However, building these experiences from scratch requires deep expertise in 3D rendering, web performance, and frontend engineering.

Scroll3D removes that barrier. The platform templatizes and automates the creation process so that any company can produce a polished, high-performance 3D storytelling asset quickly and affordably. Whether you are launching a new product, showcasing real estate, or building a brand story, Scroll3D gives you a production-ready result without a dedicated 3D engineering team.

What is a "Scroll"?​

A "Scroll" is a single-page 3D web experience built on the Scroll3D platform. Each Scroll combines a 3D scene (powered by 3D Gaussian Splatting) with configurable content panels that appear as the viewer scrolls through the page. Camera positions, transitions, panel content, and branding are all defined in a structured JSON configuration.

You can create as many Scrolls as you need. For example, a startup with multiple products can have a dedicated Scroll for each one, or a real estate company can create a Scroll for every property.

How Scrolls are Delivered​

Scrolls can be delivered to your audience in two ways:

  • Embedded -- Use a simple iframe to embed your Scroll directly into your existing website or landing page.
  • Hosted -- Scroll3D hosts the experience for you on a custom subdomain, ready to share with customers.

The background colors, fonts, and button styles of each Scroll can be matched to your existing company branding, so the experience feels native to your site.

Platform Components​

Scroll3D is made up of several key pieces:

  • Scroll Studio -- The main web application where you create, edit, manage, and publish your Scrolls. It includes the Scroll Library, the Scroll Editor, and the Analytics dashboard.
  • Standalone Viewer -- A lightweight, optimized build that renders published Scrolls for end users. It is a fraction of the size of the full application, ensuring fast load times.
  • Web SDK (@scroll3d/websdk) -- The rendering engine at the core of every Scroll, packaged as an embeddable SDK. It handles camera interpolation, panel sequencing, 3D scene rendering, and scroll-driven animation. The SDK provides a single <Scroll> React component that developers can use to integrate scroll-driven 3D experiences into their own applications. Currently available as an alpha workspace package.
