# Welcome to AR Spatially

AR Spatially is a platform for placing augmented reality content in real-world locations — and for sharing it with the people you choose.

Every AR object lives inside a **Space**: a container that defines who can see the content, where it appears on the map, and who is allowed to add to it. A Space can be open to everyone or restricted to invited members. From there, the same object is available on a map, on a web page, and in a live AR scene on a phone.

## What you can do

**Place objects in the world.** Upload a 3D model or a flat image or video, pin it to a geographic location or to a printed image, and set how large it should appear and from how far away it should be visible.

**Choose who sees it.** Each Space is either public or private. Private Spaces work by membership: the owner invites people, approves join requests, and grants editing rights — managed from the mobile apps.

**Explore on the map.** The map shows object locations around you, grouped into clusters as you zoom out. Selecting an object opens its card; from the card you can open it in AR.

**View in AR.** On a phone, objects are rendered in a live camera scene, anchored either to their geographic coordinates or to a recognized image. On the web, the platform picks the best available AR mode for the device it is running on.

**Work in six languages.** The interface and content translations are available in English, Russian, Spanish, Arabic, Hindi and Chinese, including right-to-left layout for Arabic.
