GLTFtoOBJ
Convert GLTF to OBJ
Up to 3 files at once, 100 with Pro. Mixed formats are fine.
You can convert GLTF to OBJ free and without an account: drop the file above and the OBJ is ready to download in a second or two. The conversion happens inside your own browser, so the file is never uploaded — it works on Windows, Mac, Linux, iPhone and Android, and keeps working with the network switched off.
What GLTF and OBJ are for
The 3D format for the web. Geometry, materials and animation in one JSON file.
A plain-text 3D mesh format every modelling program can read.
How to convert GLTF to OBJ
- Drop your GLTF file onto this page, or click to pick one.
- Choose OBJ as the target. The conversion runs inside your browser — the file is never uploaded.
- Download the finished OBJ file.
GLTF vs OBJ: what changes
| GLTF | OBJ | |
|---|---|---|
| Full name | GL Transmission Format | Wavefront Object |
| File extension | .gltf | .obj |
| Media type | model/gltf+json | model/obj |
- Quality
- The result is a close reconstruction rather than an exact copy. Check it before relying on it.
- Where it runs
- This conversion runs inside your browser. Your file is never uploaded, and it works with the network disconnected.
- What can be lost
- Geometry only. Materials, colours, textures and animation are not carried across, and a model placed several times comes back with each copy baked into its own position.
GLTF to OBJ: common questions
- Are my GLTF files uploaded anywhere?
- No. This conversion runs entirely inside your browser, so the file never leaves your device. You can confirm it yourself: open the network tab of your browser's developer tools and watch that nothing is sent while the file converts.
- Is converting GLTF to OBJ free?
- Yes, without a limit on how many files you convert and with no watermark on the result. Files up to 100 MB are covered by the free plan.
- Does converting GLTF to OBJ lose quality?
- GLTF and OBJ describe content in fundamentally different ways, so the conversion is a reconstruction rather than a copy. The result is faithful, but not byte-for-byte equivalent. Geometry only. Materials, colours, textures and animation are not carried across, and a model placed several times comes back with each copy baked into its own position.
- Do I need to install anything to open OBJ files?
- No installation is needed for the conversion itself — it runs in the browser you already have. Opening the OBJ afterwards needs whatever software normally handles Wavefront Object on your device.
