Nira is designed for teams that need to view, share, and analyze massive 3D and reality capture datasets directly in the browser. Nira is unique in that it utilizes server-side rendering technology that can deliver the highest visual quality, fastest performance, and most robust security. No installs required, no GPU needed for viewing, and it works seamlessly across desktops, laptops, tablets, and phones.

When Nira is the right fit
Choose Nira if you need to:
Confidently share models knowing that recipients will get a high quality and consistent experience regardless of device or internet speed
Review, inspect, annotate, analyze, measure, and markup your 3D models
Control access and sharing for external stakeholders
Collaborate faster without version confusion or clunky file transfers
Utilize a variety of desktop authoring or processing tools, so you can refine your data to be exactly how you need it
Customize the viewing experience and/or upload workflows via the powerful Nira APIs, enabling seamless customization and integration with your existing tools or platform
The core problems Nira solves
1) Big Data
Reality capture and detailed CAD datasets get heavy fast. Nira is designed to handle extremely large scenes and stream them efficiently so collaborators can view and analyze them quickly.
2) Fragmented Hardware and Software
Users can access Nira from a range of devices — laptops, phones, and even locked-down corporate machines. Because Nira runs entirely in the browser, no special hardware or installations are required.
3) Low quality rendering and slow loading
When inspecting real-world conditions, detail is critical. Nira prioritizes visual clarity so teams can make confident decisions during review and inspection workflows.
4) Security and access control
Nira is built for professional workflows that require precise control over access — who can view content and when. With Nira you have secure, confident sharing with internal teams, clients, and external contractors.
5) Slow feedback cycles
Nira streamlines the review process, models load instantly and are easy to navigate. This enables faster feedback, more iterations, and fewer delays in moving work forward.
What makes Nira different
Highest visual quality: Clear inspection and review experience.
Works on any device: Desktop to mobile, nothing to install, rock solid, no crashes
Built for professional use: Security and reliability matters just as much.
