Celebrating 1 Year of PausAR – 365+ Websites, Countless Immersive Experiences

One year ago, on April 8, 2024, we launched our 3D and Augmented Reality Plugin PausAR – 3D & AR for Elementor in the WordPress Plugin Directory. Today, as PausAR turns one year old, we look back on a journey that started with a simple idea: build a solution that we needed ourselves. Initially created to simplify 3D and AR integration for our own projects, it quickly became clear that this tool could serve a much broader audience.

One Year, One Website a Day

We saw the potential to bring immersive experiences to anyone using WordPress and Elementor—and so PausAR grew. Today, it’s used on over 365 websites worldwide, averaging one new site every single day since release. A small tool became a growing community, and a personal solution became a shared platform for innovation.

A Year of Growth and Innovation

From small creative studios to global product teams, PausAR has helped WordPress users unlock new dimensions:

  • Seamless 3D and AR integration into WordPress websites with Elementor
  • Cultural heritage experiences in museums and tourism platforms
  • Interactive storytelling tools for educators and designers
  • Prototype visualizations and design previews in real environments

And it’s all done through your browser—no app, no code.

Built for the Modern Web

PausAR integrates effortlessly with Elementor, the most popular WordPress page builder, allowing users to embed 3D models (GLB, USDZ, or reality) in just a few clicks. The plugin brings true WebAR capabilities to WordPress, making immersive experiences available to everyone—from AR beginners to experienced developers.

Whether you’re showcasing a table, a technical product, a big installation, a sculpture, or a scanned real-world object, PausAR helps your audience experience it up close, in real scale, and in real time.
