Supported formats are converted in your browser first, including large models. Conversion automatically switches to the server with a private upload if local conversion fails, or for FBX and USDZ with skins or animation. Server conversion requires sign-in.
Open the export options, choose OBJ, and click Export. When the result is ready, click Download to save it.
PLY files from 3D scanners often carry heavy vertex color data. Our converter intentionally strips non-standard attributes, ensuring your output is a mathematically clean Wavefront OBJ file ready for editing in C4D, Maya, or Blender.

Local previews and browser conversions keep file processing on your device. If local conversion fails or requires the server, the model is automatically uploaded to private storage; temporary uploads and results are cleaned up after 24 hours.
