Best Free Online 3D Viewers in 2026: GLB, STL, OBJ, FBX
Six free ways to open a 3D file without installing much, compared on formats, upload, sign-in and limits, including the TRELLIS.2 browser viewer online.
Batch reconstruction
Batch image to 3D: many reference images in, one delivery out
Bulk 3D work fails on logistics before it fails on quality: somebody still has to upload 200 images one at a time, name 200 files, and fix 200 polygon counts afterwards. We take the reference set once and hand back a finished batch — GLB, FBX or OBJ, cleaned and decimated to the budget you set — with a written scope and a delivery date.
What a batch run is, and what it is not
A self-serve batch button and a quoted batch both promise “many assets”, then diverge on who owns the work after generation.
Self-serve batch button
You drive the queue: one upload, one job, one download per asset. It works when every reference is clean and nobody has to fix the output afterwards.
Quoted batch, as run here
You hand over the reference set once. Generation, cleanup, decimation to an agreed triangle budget and delivery happen as one job with a named date.
Where the difference shows up
Mixed formats, rigged-app scale, a triangle budget per asset, and references that need a second angle. A batch queue answers none of that; a written scope does.
Why per-asset uploads stop scaling
- One upload per asset
- A 200-asset set entered through a per-asset tool is 200 uploads and 200 downloads. A quoted batch is one reference folder in and one delivery folder out.
- One polygon budget per batch
- Triangle targets are applied during cleanup, per asset, so you are not decimating 200 files by hand after the fact.
- One revision list
- Fixes come back as a single consolidated list per round rather than a thread per file, which is what keeps a 500-asset run reviewable.
How a reconstruction batch runs
1. Reference set in
Send one to four images per asset, or a folder with a brief. Props usually survive a single clear photo; characters and architecture need more angles, because one photo does not describe the underside.
2. Scope agreed in writing
Count, formats, triangle budget, texture size, revision rounds, delivery date and price go into one written scope before any work starts.
3. Reconstruct and clean
Every reference goes through the image-to-3D pass, then manual cleanup: scale, orientation, smoothing, seam fixes and decimation to the agreed budget.
4. One delivery, one review
Files arrive as a download folder with a manifest listing asset ID, format and triangle count. You send one revision list; delivery closes when it is applied.
Delivery specification
The same settings apply to every batch; the bulk 3D asset delivery page lists them in full, and the pricing page explains which of them move the price.
- File formats
- GLB by default. FBX and OBJ (with MTL) on request, including mixed formats inside one batch.
- Polygon budget
- Target triangle budgets of 10k, 25k, 50k or the native mesh from the image-to-3D pass. The budget is written into the scope, not decided after delivery.
- Texture resolution
- 1024px on the starter batch, up to 2048px on larger batches. PBR maps: base colour, roughness, metallic, normal.
- Revision rounds
- Revisions are per batch, not per asset: one list of fixes per round, applied to the whole delivery. Extra rounds are quoted.
Start with the reference set
The quote form asks for asset count, target format, polygon budget, how many references you already have and your deadline. We reply within one business day, and nothing is charged until the scope is confirmed in writing.

How a batch differs from a self-serve queue, how many assets fit in one run, and what happens to a reference set that is not ready.
It means one order covering many assets: you send a reference set, and 50, 200 or 500+ finished 3D assets come back in one delivery with a written scope and a date. It is not a per-asset tool session you drive yourself.
Self-serve tools do offer batch runs, and they are the right answer when every reference is clean and the exports need no cleanup. They stop being cheaper once the batch needs a triangle budget per asset, mixed formats, or fixes applied after generation.
Those are self-serve generators: you drive the queue and fix the output. Here the batch is quoted in writing and delivered with cleanup, decimation and a manifest, so the deliverable is files that are ready to import, not raw generations.
The quoted tiers are 50 assets for $999 and 200 assets for $2,999. Runs of 500 or more are scoped per milestone, so a large set can be split into deliveries and stopped between them.
Yes, when the references and the delivery spec already exist. Send the current spec with the quote form and the reply quotes against it, including what would have to change to hit the same triangle budgets and formats.
We say so before the scope is signed, and list which assets need another angle. Quoting a batch against unusable references is what produces a revision round nobody can win.
