How it works?

4 steps, start to finish. This is what each screen looks like.

  1. 1

    Upload a video

    Drop in an MP4, WebM or MOV — up to 20 MB. This is the clip that plays over the printed page.

  2. 2

    Choose the marker

    Scrub to a moment with plenty of fine detail, or bring your own image. Detail is what lets a phone recognise the page, so a flat or blurred frame will not scan.

  3. 3

    Build the AR target

    The marker is compiled into an AR target on your own device, then the video and marker are uploaded. Nothing is rendered on a server.

  4. 4

    Print the sheet

    Download the one-page PDF, print it at full size, then point your phone at it. The video starts playing on the paper — no app, no link to follow.
