The ROI of markerless AR: cost, timeline, and results
Markerless (surface-placement) AR lets users drop 3D content onto any flat surface — no printed marker required — for true-to-scale previews anywhere.
What markerless AR costs
Unlike a bespoke Unity build, markerless AR on a managed platform is a subscription plus light services — not a six-figure capital project. You pay to run campaigns, not to rebuild infrastructure each time.
Where the ROI comes from
- No printed target needed
- True-to-scale placement in real space
- Great for furniture and big items
- Browser-based, no app
Measuring results
Every scan, dwell, and tap is an event, so product and retail teams can attribute engagement to specific touchpoints and prove impact.
If you can measure it, you can improve it — and markerless AR finally makes physical media measurable.
