TotalAR is a platform for organizations that want to connect print materials to augmented-reality content. A user scans a printed image or TAR code with the app to open associated videos, website URLs, contact details, 2D or 3D animation, or feedback and survey forms. Experiences can be tied to a physical marker or based on location. TotalAR reports views and interactions with campaign content, and accepts YouTube video links. Its AR Bot can be integrated into an existing mobile app through an API, with technical support from the company. The platform supports iOS and Android phones and tablets and requires an internet connection over Wi-Fi or mobile data. The consumer app is described as a free download, though brands may charge for content. Basic Free is 0.00 USD per free and includes five TAR codes and 100 scans per month. Pro costs 90.00 USD per month, billed annually, and Enterprise starts at 250.00 USD per month, billed annually. TotalAR names publishers, educators, retailers, print media, advertising agencies, manufacturers, infrastructure, real estate, public sector, and construction among its audiences. It does not accept duplicate target images.
