Convert DAE to OBJ

Drop your DAE files and download them as OBJ — free, in batch, and they never leave your device.

DAE → OBJ: what you should know

DAE is Collada, the open XML 3D interchange format driven by Khronos. It's used mostly in interchange between legacy tools, SketchUp, older engines, digital museum archives, and it stores geometry, scene, materials, referenced textures and animations in XML. OBJ, on the other hand, is a veteran, universal text format supported by practically every 3D application — the format expected by interchange between 3D apps (Blender, Maya, 3ds Max), texturing, rendering.

This tool converts your DAE files to OBJ right in the browser: no queue, no artificial size limit and, above all, your file is never uploaded to any server. Geometry is preserved with the exact coordinates and scale of the original — important if the model is going to be printed or measured.

Keep in mind: Geometry is exported without an MTL file: materials and textures aren't included. If you need to keep that data, convert to a format that supports it (GLB keeps materials and textures; PLY keeps vertex colors).
