Key features
  • Mesh Simplification: reduce triangle count with quadric-error decimation while preserving silhouette
  • LOD Chains: generate multiple detail levels from one high-poly asset
  • Watertight Rebuild: close holes and rebuild surfaces on damaged models
  • Mesh Inspection: detect non-manifold edges, holes, winding, missing UVs and platform compatibility
  • 3D File Converter: convert between OBJ, STL, PLY, OFF and GLB formats
  • 3D Model Viewer: inspect models with orbit controls, grid and wireframe
  • 3D GIF Maker: export rotating GIF or MP4 turntable animations from models
  • REST API: programmatic access for scripts and asset pipelines
  • MCP server: AI client integration for agents like Claude
  • AI 3D Model Generator - create print-ready models from text or images
  • 3D Map Maker for cities and landscapes
  • Pet to 3D Figurine Generator
  • Flexi/Articulated Model Creator with joint placement
  • Multiple export formats including STL, OBJ, GLB, GLTF, PLY
  • AI CAD Agent with prompting guide
  • 3D printing calculators and tools
  • Lithophane Generator for photo-based prints
  • 3D Puzzle Maker from STL files
  • Community model sharing and browsing
What makes it different
  • Queue-backed pipeline with Postgres state tracking maintains work across device refreshes and crashes
  • Data privacy: models never used for ML training, stored in private object storage with signed expiring downloads
  • Owned hardware infrastructure with zero-egress storage keeps economics viable for large 3D files
  • Same account and allowances across Studio, REST API and MCP interfaces
  • Processing split by tier: paid work runs on dedicated workers not held up behind free traffic
  • Over 25 specialized design tools all browser-based
  • Commercial Rights to monetize both prints and digital files
  • High-resolution AI models with advanced parameters on Pro/Enterprise
  • REST API access for Enterprise with full documentation
