Introducing ARShades Studio 2.0: A Major Update Release
We are proud to introduce the latest release of ARShades Studio, our dedicated management and analytics dashboard, now taken to a whole new level. Building on a platform that already lets you manage data, validate digital frames and analyse customer behaviour, this update delivers powerful new resource-management tools, vastly increased configurability and greater autonomy for you to generate and control your own catalogues, assets and orders.
This release forms part of a broader ARShades platform enhancement, encompassing our Web VTO solution, Visor 3D AR, digital-frame modelling services and more. Together, these improvements offer a unified ecosystem for creating, previewing and deploying augmented-reality eyewear experiences—faster, more flexibly and with complete end-to-end visibility.
Major Updates
Redesigned Dynamic Platform
A complete redesign of the ARShades Studio platform, delivering a dynamic interface that adapts to each user’s role and active subscriptions.
- Smart dashboard: one-click access to your catalogues, the 3D asset library, subscriptions and key performance indicators from a single unified view.
- Advanced role management: six finely granulated user roles (Super Admin, Admin, Member, Validator, Modeller Supervisor and Modeller), each with bespoke permissions and custom interface layouts.
- Improved security and control: Role-based access restrictions and audit-grade operational logs give administrators full visibility over every action in the Studio.
My Catalogues
Catalogue Management
A brand-new “Catalogues” module guides users through the creation, modification and publication of web catalogues with a simple, step-by-step wizard.
- Guided wizard: build or edit a catalogue through an intuitive multi-step interface that validates inputs as you proceed.
- Visual customisation: upload banners and logos, set titles, choose colour schemes and adjust layout parameters without writing a single line of code.
- SEO & localisation: define metadata (titles, descriptions, keywords) in up to five languages to ensure your catalogue reaches the right audience.
3D Asset List Management
Within each catalogue, complete control over which products and variants appear, and in what order, is now at your fingertips.
- Drag-and-drop ordering: rearrange items in the display hierarchy with a simple drag-and-drop interface.
- Item lifecycle controls: delete or temporarily pause individual products or variants at any time.
- Bulk import wizard: add multiple assets to your catalogue in one operation by uploading a CSV or XLSX file.
- Full export: download a comprehensive list of catalogue entries, including direct ARShades entry-point URLs, as a CSV.
ARShades Library
The central 3D asset repository has been optimised for speed and precision, making it easier than ever to find and preview assets before you add them to a catalogue.
- Advanced filtering: narrow results by SKU, EAN, UPC or model name, and refine further by brand, type, line, gender or age.
- Rich previews: inspect each asset with live 3D rendering and Virtual Try-On (VTO) directly in the detail panel.
- One-click additions: send any product or all of its variants to a chosen catalogue in a single action.
- Batch library enquiries: check the availability of multiple SKUs at once via CSV/XLSX upload and receive a detailed summary.
Orders
An integrated workflow for requesting and managing new 3D modelling work, fully embedded in Studio.
- Availability check: upload a CSV/XLSX list to determine which items are already in the Library, in production or ready to order.
- Order submission: fill out a concise request form that captures all necessary modelling specifications.
- Automated quoting: receive a detailed quotation in your portal inbox within minutes.
- End-to-end tracking: accept or decline quotes and monitor the status of each order from “Requested” through to “Completed”.
Subscription
A simplified subscription centre allows you to manage core plans and optional add-ons with complete transparency.
- Plan vs add-on distinction: visually differentiate your base subscription allowances from additional add-on capacities via side-by-side usage bars.
- Comprehensive overviews: view current limits, consumption history and renewal timelines in a single dashboard.
- In-app requests: initiate new plan upgrades or add-on activations directly from the interface, with requests logged as support tickets.
Analítica avanzada
The analytics suite has been rebuilt from the ground up, offering clearer insights and more flexible data exploration.
- Modern UI: a streamlined interface with advanced filters, sortable columns and responsive design.
- Exportable reports: generate and download CSVs or PDF summaries of any table or chart.
- Variant breakdowns: view frame-level performance metrics, including colour variants and SKU-specific engagement.
- Analytics for ARShades Gateways: The new, dedicated Analytics page lets you visualise real-time traffic data for your ARShades Gateways – our immersive AR portal for advertising, events, and more. You can now track geo-location, page views, and custom events to gain deep insights into how users engage with your embedded viewer. Use these metrics to optimise your AR experiences, target specific regions, and measure the impact of your campaigns with precision
Frame Validation
Frame Validation is now an integral part of ARShades Studio, providing a seamless progression from order to published asset.
- Ordered Catalogues view: each catalogue card displays counts of assets by status (Published, In Publication, Client Review) and offers a downloadable summary.
- Interactive model list: expandable rows show thumbnails, status pills and a progress bar for each model and variant.
- Detailed variant workspace: combine metadata panels with 3D/VTO preview and perform “Validate”, “Decline” (with notes and screenshots) or “Publish” actions.
- Enhanced notifications: in-app alerts and email updates keep stakeholders informed of status changes, supported by a full audit log of all validation events.
Notificaciones
Notifications in ARShades Studio now provide real-time, role-aware in-app alerts and complementary email updates across four core areas, ensuring everyone stays informed and can act promptly:
- Frame Validation: Enhanced notifications notify users of status changes, validation requests and issued notes, all backed by a comprehensive audit log of every validation event.
- Subscription: Alerts signal when a main subscription or add-on is activated, is about to expire or has been upgraded.
- Catalogue: Users receive updates whenever a catalogue’s asset list is upgraded.
- Orders: Notifications cover the entire quoting and ordering workflow, from new order issuance through quote generation, acceptance and final confirmation.
Conclusions
In summary, this major update to ARShades Studio 2.0 transforms the way you manage resources, control catalogues and assets, track orders and subscriptions, validate frames and glean actionable insights from your analytics. The redesigned interface and enhanced workflows ensure that teams of any size can operate with greater efficiency, security and autonomy, while the unified audit trails and notification engine keep every stakeholder aligned at each stage of the process.
