Turn one flat image into a guided walkthrough.
Hover any dot and a card explains that part — no extra pages needed.
Try it on this HVAC render: drag dots, add your own, or restyle on the right. Nothing is saved.
What is an interactive image?
An interactive image is a normal photo, render, diagram, or floor plan with clickable hotspots placed on top of it. Each hotspot opens a small card that can hold a title, a description, a photo or video, and a link — so one image can explain a whole product line, room, venue, or assembly without sending the visitor to another page.
Interactive Image stores every hotspot as a percentage of the image, so the dots stay glued to the right spot on desktop, tablet, and phone. When your image is ready you copy one iframe snippet and paste it into your site — it works in a Wix HTML embed, a WordPress block, a Webflow embed element, Squarespace, Shopify, or any page that accepts HTML.
Teams use it for product diagrams and spec callouts, shoppable lookbooks, clickable floor plans and site maps, venue seating charts, onboarding walkthroughs, and annotated architectural renders. It replaces the old HTML <map> / <area> approach, which uses fixed pixel coordinates and breaks the moment the image is resized — see the image map alternative breakdown, or browse live examples.

Publish a clean embed
Copy one iframe into Wix, Webflow, WordPress, or any page that accepts HTML.
The short answer
What is an interactive image?
An interactive image is an ordinary photo, render, diagram, or plan with clickable hotspots placed on top of it. Hovering or tapping a hotspot opens a card with its own title, description, image, and link — so one visual can carry the detail that would otherwise need a page of text or a stack of annotated crops.
The part that matters technically is how those hotspots are stored. Here each one is a percentage of the image's width and height rather than a pixel coordinate, so a marker sitting on a valve, a room, or a product stays on it at every screen size. That is the difference between a modern interactive image and a classic HTML image map, whose fixed <area> coordinates drift as soon as the image scales.
You publish it as a single responsive iframe, which is why it drops into Wix, WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, Squarespace, or any page that accepts HTML without a plugin — and why editing a hotspot updates every page showing that image at once.
Common questions
- Do I need to design a new graphic?
- No. It works on the image you already have — a product photo, a CAD export, an architectural render, or a floor plan PDF exported as an image.
- Does it work on phones?
- Yes. Hotspots scale with the image and popups open as tap-friendly cards rather than hover tooltips.
- Do I need a developer?
- No. Placing hotspots is drag-and-drop, and publishing is copying one snippet into an HTML block.
- Can I change it after publishing?
- Yes. Hotspot content lives here, not in your site, so edits appear on every page holding the embed without re-copying anything.

Definition
What is an interactive image tool?
An interactive image tool layers clickable hotspots onto a flat image so each part of the picture can carry its own title, description, photo, video, and link. The result is one embeddable component instead of a stack of annotated screenshots: a product render that explains its own parts, a floor plan where every room opens its details, a seating chart that links each section to tickets.
The part that decides whether it holds up in production is how hotspot positions are stored. Interactive Image records them as percentages of the image and measures the rendered image box, so markers stay glued to the artwork from a 4K monitor down to a phone — the failure mode that makes classic pixel-coordinate image maps unusable on responsive sites.
| Approach | Responsive? | Rich popups? | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| HTML image map (<area>) | No — fixed pixels | No, links only | Legacy fixed-width pages |
| Hand-coded CSS or SVG overlay | Yes, with work | Only what you build | Developer-owned one-offs |
| Design tool export (Figma, Canva) | No embed produced | No | Static visuals and decks |
| Mapping platform | Yes | Yes | Real geography and coordinates |
| Interactive Image | Yes — percentage hotspots | Text, images, video, CTAs | Any image embedded on a site |

Frequently asked questions
How do I make an image interactive?
Upload the image, drop hotspots where you want them, add text, photos, or links to each hotspot, then copy the generated iframe into your website.
Where can I embed an interactive image?
Anywhere you can paste an iframe, including Wix, Webflow, WordPress, Shopify, Squarespace, Framer, Notion, HubSpot, and custom sites.
Is Interactive Image free?
Yes. The free plan lets you build and embed interactive images with a small watermark. Pro removes the watermark and raises limits.
Do interactive images work on mobile?
Yes. Hotspots scale with the image and open on tap, so the same embed works on desktop, tablet, and mobile.
What is an interactive image tool?
An interactive image tool takes a flat image and layers clickable hotspots on top of it, each holding its own text, photo, video, or link. Instead of one link per image, a visitor can explore the parts of a product, the rooms in a floor plan, or the sections of a venue map, all inside a single embeddable component.
How do I create an image map without coding?
Upload the image, click where each region should go, and describe it. Interactive Image stores each hotspot as a percentage of the image rather than fixed <area> pixel coordinates, then generates the responsive embed for you — no HTML, JavaScript, or plugin required.
Can I make custom interactive maps from my own artwork?
Yes. Illustrated maps, campus plans, seating charts, trade-show layouts, and stylised world maps all work, because Interactive Image treats your artwork as the map instead of requiring geographic coordinates.
What is the difference between this and an HTML image map?
A classic HTML image map uses <map> and <area> tags with fixed pixel coordinates, so the clickable regions drift as soon as the image is scaled, and each region can only be a plain link. Percentage-based hotspots stay aligned at every width and can open rich cards with images, video, and buttons.
