I love the concept. Does this work with e commerce platforms like Shopify or Webflow?

@hina_siddiqui Thanks so much! Right now, Kodex is fully integrated with Shopify. So you can start embedding 3D stories on your product pages today. Webflow support isn’t available just yet, but it’s high on our roadmap. We’ll keep you posted as soon as it’s ready!

Giving customers a peek behind the scenes is such a great idea. Does it come with analytics or heatmaps?

@ezra_leo2 Absolutely! Kodex comes with a built-in engagement dashboard so you can see exactly how people interact with your stories. You’ll get metrics like story views, hotspot clicks, and a heatmap overlay on your site canvas so you can visually spot which areas grabbed attention. Everything’s exportable as CSV. Moreover, a unique QR code is generated per product when mapped to each story, which you can download and apply across your print materials to track offline engagement too!
Microsites often come with SEO challenges. How do you make sure these interactive pages stay discoverable and perform well across different devices and search engines?

@liam_ward2 You’re spot on. Microsites can be SEO hurdles if you don’t plan for indexing and performance.
Here’s how we trying to tackle it with Kodex👇
Server-Rendered Snapshots & Meta Tags
Each story page is pre-rendered with full HTML (title, description, Open Graph tags) so search-bots see real content, not just a blank canvas waiting on JavaScript.
Progressive Enhancement & Fallbacks
On older devices or when WebGL isn’t available, visitors (and bots) see a static hero image plus your story text—ensuring every page is crawlable and mobile-friendly.
Asset Optimization & Lazy Loading
3D models and textures are compressed and loaded on-demand. Scripts are deferred, critical CSS is inlined, and images are served via a CDN, keeping Lighthouse scores high across desktop and mobile..
Work in progress⚙️
Canonical URLs & Link Equity
Every story lives under its own subpath or custom domain (you control the URL), so SEO juice isn’t diluted and internal links from your main site pass authority directly to each interactive page.
JSON-LD Schema & Sitemaps
We automatically inject structured data (Product, FAQ, Breadcrumb) and update your site’s XML sitemap with every new story, so Google knows exactly what you’ve published.
Eager to know what you think of it!

This is fantastic for DTC brands and creators alike. Is there any integration with Shopify or Webflow?

@scytalelabs_marketing Thanks so much! Right now, Kodex is fully integrated with Shopify. You can start embedding 360 stories on your product pages today. Webflow support isn’t available just yet, but it’s high on our roadmap. We’ll keep you posted as soon as it’s ready!
It is amazing. Is it possible to host the microsites on a custom domain?

@ethan_lennon glad you bought it up! We are working on it, should be ready in couple of weeks. That way, Kodex microsites can live on your own domain. In your dashboard you can add any custom hostname (e.g. stories.yourbrand.com), then point a CNAME record in your DNS to our hosting endpoint.
I love how interactive micro sites can really enhance trust and drive conversions. How flexible are the design options?

@hazel_joy Thanks for asking. Right now, you have full control over fonts and text colors to match your brand. Layouts and button styles are kept consistent out of the box to ensure clarity and reliability, but expanding those design options is on our roadmap. I’d love to hear which specific layout or button customizations you’re looking for so we can prioritize them!

Hey folks 👋
I’m excited to launch Kodex — an AI-powered drag & drop CMS that lets brands craft realistic 3D product stories by pulling back the curtain on their backend processes, without any green-wash, via simple embedded screens on your site or QR codes on your physical product labels.
Why we built it⚙️:
We saw brands stuck between static PDFs, stale blog posts, or expensive dev work just to show what really happens behind the scenes. Attention craters, engagement stalls, and the story never gets told.
What we built☘️:
Kodex lets you assemble stories of social and visual proof in minutes.
Immersive 3D canvas: Drag in your models, footage or data points
Zero engineering: No dev time, no agency fees, no file-size headaches
Easy embeds & QR: Publish everywhere - both physical and digital
Why it’s different💫:
Show, don’t tell: True transparency comes from a peek behind the scenes
Built-in UGC: Every viewer can tap to share their favourite “step” on socials—auto-tagging your brand and driving word-of-mouth
Scale in hours: Beta partners spun up 3D narratives for 100 SKUs in under a day and saw on-page engagement jump 30%
What I’m most proud of is how Kodex makes transparency marketable: brands don’t just claim honesty—they demonstrate it as a social proof for their customers.
Why the name Kodex?
"Our name riffs on the ancient “codex” — manuscripts or official ledgers inscribed on wood or parchment to guarantee authenticity (think original pharmacopeias or chemical registries). Likewise, Kodex serves as the modern ledger for product transparency, giving brands an authoritative platform to showcase what really goes on behind the scenes."
We’d love to hear what you think about Kodex. Please take it for a test drive 🎉.
Question for you: If you could reveal just one hidden detail about a product you love, what would it be—and why?

@ezra_leo2 yes.. it does.. come.. check it out!!
This is absolutely brilliant. Can I link products straight to checkout or do I have to embed them manually?
@vera_adams1 You absolutely can send people straight to checkout from your story window. Please follow these steps:
Start your story builder as usual
Add a button element to the bottom drawer section
Paste in your product’s checkout URL
Publish your story
Only published, embed on product pages by mapping your products from the drop-down list on the story card
Once that story’s live, any tap on your CTA takes visitors directly to the checkout page. Let me know if you’d like a quick walkthrough!
@vera_adams1 This is an idea we have been asking around for market fit.. check this out..
