The short version

Threekit or Imersian for a home retailer?

Who each suits

Threekit or Imersian: which fits your business?

Threekit is an AI-native configure-price-quote platform for manufacturers: valid configurations, pricing rules and branded quotes for sales teams, dealers and buyers, with 3D, AR and virtual photography on top. Imersian is a room visualizer for home retailers: shoppers upload one photo of their room and place your real rugs, furniture, wall art and flooring in it at true scale. They answer different questions, and some businesses need both.

How the room is understood
ThreekitAR places the 3D product in the shopper's space through a smartphone, no app required. Threekit Spaces is a room planner where buyers draw a space on a grid, to the inch.
ImersianReads the room's geometry once from one photo of the shopper's room, or the shopper picks a room template. Products then place, move and rotate without re-reading the room. Magic Eraser can remove existing furniture first.
Is the shown product the real product image or regenerated
ThreekitRendered from the product's 3D model, including the options the buyer configures. Virtual Photographer uses AI-enhanced rendering to make images from 3D files.
ImersianThe real product, placed in the room. Every product gets a model built from your existing product photos: rugs, flooring, wallpaper, wall art and other flat or surface products are converted free, and furniture and home decor models use credits. Placement itself is not redrawn by an image model.
True-to-scale placement
ThreekitAR places products in the buyer's space; how scale is handled is not covered on its AR page. Spaces room drawing works to the inch.
ImersianYes. True to scale from the room's geometry, with real shadows, and products sit in front of or behind what is already in the room.
Multiple products in one scene
ThreekitThreekit Spaces lets buyers build and place custom products such as cabinets, doors, windows and appliances in a drawn room. Several products together in one AR view is not documented.
ImersianYes. Several products in one room, including furniture, rugs, wall art, decor and lighting on walls and ceilings, then add them all to cart.
Move, rotate and swap after placement
ThreekitBuyers change options, materials, colors and dimensions in real time and can place the configured product in their space. Move and rotate controls in AR are not described.
ImersianYes. Shoppers move, rotate and swap products in the same room without re-reading it.
Is pricing public
ThreekitNo. Threekit says pricing is custom and varies with product count, visualization type, timeline and budget. A free-to-install Shopify listing says additional charges may apply.
ImersianPriced on room uploads, not on each product a shopper tries. Placing, moving and swapping products in an uploaded room is not counted, and room templates are not metered. See /pricing.
3D models required
ThreekitYes. Visuals run from 3D models, colors, materials and business rules. Threekit can build products from SIF file data, and Virtual Photographer makes images from 3D files.
ImersianNone on your side. Imersian builds a model of every product from your existing product photos. Rugs, wall art, wallpaper, tiles and flooring are converted free; furniture and home decor models use credits, or you can supply your own.

AI shopping assistant using the same room photo
ThreekitThreekit offers AI Guided Selling, an agent that steers buyers and sales reps toward product choices, and AI Discovery for recommendations. A room-photo assistant for home shoppers is not documented.
ImersianYes, as a separate product. The AI Shopping Assistant reads room size, color palette, style and light from the shopper's photo, recommends products with the reason each fits, and hands the chosen one to the Visualizer.
Configure, price and quote
ThreekitA core strength. Threekit describes itself as an AI-native CPQ platform for manufacturers: valid configurations, role-based pricing and branded quotes for sales teams, dealers and website visitors.
ImersianNot offered. Imersian is a room visualizer for home retailers, not a configure-price-quote system.

The shopper's real room, not a drawn one

Threekit places the configured product through AR on the phone, and its Spaces planner lets buyers draw a room on a grid to the inch. Imersian works from a photo of the room the shopper already has. It reads the geometry once, so products sit at true scale with real shadows, in front of or behind the furniture already there.

  • Several products in one room, including lighting on walls and ceilings
  • Move, rotate and swap without the room being read again

Replace what is there, not only add to it

Magic Eraser removes existing furniture from the shopper's photo and rebuilds the floor behind it, so a new sofa or rug is judged where it will actually go.

Rugs and flooring without 3D work

Threekit's visuals run on 3D models, colors, materials and business rules. With Imersian, rugs, wall art, wallpaper, tiles and flooring are shown from your own product images and converted free, and furniture models are built from your existing product photos.

Switching from Threekit to Imersian

Three steps, with our team doing the product onboarding.

Connect your store

Sign up on the portal and install the Imersian Shopify app, which keeps your products in sync. On other platforms, our team activates the embeddable components and API with you.

Prepare your products

If you hold 3D files of your products, you can supply them. Rugs and other flat products need a top-down image and dimensions. Furniture models are built from the product photos you already have. Our team checks each product before it goes live.

Add the button and go live

The Visualizer opens from a button on your product pages and loads only when a shopper taps it. Typically you are live within 2 weeks.

How Imersian approaches the problem

1 photo

Room reconstruction from a single photo

Shoppers upload one photo of their room. Spatial AI reads the floor, walls, scale and light, then places products at true 1:1 size in that room, not a template scene. No app, no LiDAR.

Whole room

Multi-product styling, add all to cart

Rugs, furniture, wallpaper and decor can be placed together in one session, with a rug sitting correctly under an existing sofa. The shopper adds the whole look to cart in one step.

Photos in

3D models generated from product photography

The AI 3D Creator turns the product photos a retailer already has into 3D models, so a large catalog can go live without commissioning 3D production first.
