What it really isKIRI Engine — mobile + web 3D scanner app using photogrammetry and LiDAR.
Our takeKIRI Engine is a photogrammetry and LiDAR scanning app for iOS, Android, and web.
The Basic plan is free with unlimited scans and exports, while Pro costs $17.99/mo or $79.99/yr ($6.66/mo). It turns phone photos or LiDAR data into textured 3D models with advanced features like Gaussian Splatting, PBR materials, and auto-rigging on the Pro tier.
Why we rate itRare case where the free tier is genuinely useful for real workflows — unlimited exports, no watermarks, and multi-format support put it well ahead of most freemium 3D tools.
Pro's auto-rig and Gaussian Splatting are standout additions for game/VR pipelines.
The catchOutput quality depends heavily on lighting and photo coverage; complex or reflective surfaces still challenge photogrammetry.
Pro's advanced features (GS, PBR) have a learning curve. Mobile-first UX can feel limiting for desktop-heavy pipelines.

Best / not good for

Best for
  • Hobbyists and indie game devs wanting free photogrammetry without watermarks
  • 3D artists needing quick real-world asset capture for VR/AR projects
  • Product photographers and designers prototyping 3D visualizations from photos
Not good for
  • High-volume enterprise pipelines requiring team/org collaboration features
  • Users needing sub-millimeter precision for medical or industrial metrology
  • Workflows requiring raw point-cloud data or survey-grade output
Trade-offs

Friction report

Trade-offs to know before signing up.

  1. Time to value
    Fast: download app, scan an object, and export a 3D model in under 10 minutes on the free plan — no account required to try.
  2. Scale breakpoint
    Single-user app with no team or org management; scaling across studios requires individual Pro subscriptions per user.
  3. Walled garden
    Low: exports to open formats (OBJ, STL, FBX, GLTF, USDZ) with no proprietary lock-in; models are yours to use anywhere.
Still a fit?
If none of these block you, start on the free plan.
