Rive vs Spline — ¿Cuál gana?
Elige Rive si: Desarrolladores de apps y diseñadores de motion que necesitan animaciones interactivas que respondan al input del usuario en tiempo real
Elige Spline si: Diseñadores web y front-end devs que quieren 3D en sus sitios sin tocar Blender o Unity

La verdadera diferencia
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Rive stands out with State machine editor for interactive animations and Lightweight runtimes for iOS, Android, Web, and Flutter. Spline counters with Browser-based 3D modeling with real-time collaboration and 3D animations and interactive scenes without code.
Rive's Achilles heel: the state machine concept is powerful but intimidating — non-developers will hit a wall fast. Spline's: not a replacement for serious 3d work — geometry tools are basic compared to blender or cinema 4d. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Conclusión
If you value state machine editor for interactive animations and desarrolladores de apps y, go with Rive. If diseñadores web y front-end matters more, Spline is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
