Free converter

Convert GLB to OBJ for editing.

Drop a .glb below and download the geometry as a Wavefront OBJ — the format every modeling and sculpting tool imports. Ideal for taking an AI-generated or downloaded web asset back into Blender, Maya or ZBrush. The conversion runs locally in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

Why this tool

Free, private, in the browser.

From delivery format to editing format

GLB is built for rendering; OBJ is what DCC tools eat. This converter bridges the two in one click.

UVs and normals preserved

Texture coordinates and normals in the GLB carry into the OBJ, so re-texturing or sculpting downstream keeps working.

Local, instant, private

The scene is parsed and re-exported in browser memory with three.js — no upload, no queue, no account.

How it works

Three steps, no setup.

01
Drop your GLB

Drag the .glb into the tool — it renders a live textured preview so you can confirm it's the right model.

02
Convert to OBJ

Every mesh in the scene is re-encoded as Wavefront OBJ, locally in your browser.

03
Import and edit

Open the downloaded .obj in Blender, Maya, ZBrush or any DCC tool and keep working.

Why convert GLB to OBJ?

GLB is the standard output of AI 3D generators, web viewers and asset marketplaces — but many pipelines still expect OBJ: sculpting apps, older game engines, CNC and rendering tools, and marketplace upload forms. Converting GLB to OBJ extracts the mesh geometry with its UVs so the model slots back into a classic modeling workflow.

What happens to materials and textures

OBJ stores geometry only; its materials live in a separate .mtl file and loose texture images. A browser tool can't write a multi-file bundle, so the OBJ you download contains the full geometry, normals and UV coordinates — but not the GLB's PBR materials. Because the UVs survive, you can reapply or bake textures in your DCC tool, or keep the original GLB alongside as the textured reference.

Questions

Answered, plainly.

Is the GLB to OBJ converter free?+

Yes — unlimited free conversions, no signup, no watermark. It's one of Sculpty's free tools.

Is my model uploaded anywhere?+

No. The GLB is parsed and the OBJ generated entirely in your browser's memory. Your model never touches a server.

Do textures come along?+

The geometry, normals and UV coordinates convert; the embedded PBR textures do not, because OBJ stores appearance in separate .mtl and image files a browser can't bundle. Keep the GLB for reference or re-texture in your DCC tool.

My GLB has multiple objects — what does the OBJ contain?+

All of them, with their scene transforms applied, so the OBJ matches what you saw in the preview.

Can I convert OBJ back to GLB?+

Yes — use the free OBJ to GLB converter, linked below.
