> Spatial AI models that turn images, text, and video into 3D worlds

World Labs develops spatial intelligence models capable of perceiving and generating persistent 3D environments from 2D inputs. Its flagship tool, Marble, lets users generate, explore, edit, and export interactive 3D worlds from text, images, video, or panoramas. It provides an API and tools for developers building spatial and interactive 3D applications.

## What it is for

- Turn 2D room photos into explorable, navigable 3D virtual walkthroughs
- Generate persistent 3D game and simulation environments from text prompts or concept art
- Integrate image-to-3D world generation into custom applications via developer APIs
- Export generated spatial scenes into standard 3D workflows and pipelines

## Features

- Multimodal input support including text prompts, 2D images, video, and 360 panoramas
- Marble web tool for interactive navigation and editing of generated scenes
- 3D layout control to guide world spatial structure and element positioning
- World expansion and combination tools to connect environments into larger spaces
- Export support for multiple 2D and 3D file formats
- Developer API platform for embedding spatial world generation into apps
