What people are saying

"12 MB for a native 3D viewer is impressive. Most Mac apps in this space are Electron wrappers that eat 200+ MB just sitting idle. The Quick Look integration is a smart touch."

"looks clean.. quick look + finder thumbnails is pretty good, that's been such an annoying gap on mac for years. most 3d viewers feel bloated or just break on random files."

"Pretty cool. I think it's better than GLTF Review and FBX Review, mainly because it supports both formats and animations."
