Ready to start your first project with Geenee’s drag & drop WebAR builder?

Sign up for early access!

Here’s a brief guide to the file types that can be used to build your WebAR experience with just a few clicks:

1. Create or Source Your 3D Asset(s)

Geenee has an integration with Sketchfab, allowing users direct access to millions of pre-made 3D assets available for licensing.

To create your own assets, we suggest Blender. It’s easy and free, and enables compatible 3D file formats (.glb & .gltf)

You can use any 3D editor (Cinema4d, 3ds Max, Maya) that supports .glb file format exporting.

Object Guidelines: Use as few objects as possible and merge what you can. For example, if you have a large number of individual objects, try to merge them into a single object with just one material.

2. Check your File Size and Format

  • Both .glb file and .mov file types are compatible with Geenee’s platform.
  • The final file size should be less than 20MB
  • Recommended file size: 15MB (optimal)

3. Convert and Test your Files

Below are links to some helpful online resources to ensure your assets are in the proper format and ready for primetime:
