Sketchfab - Online Platform for Sharing 3D Models

In 2012, a French group came up with the idea of creating a sharing platform, like video and music platforms, but for 3D models. That's how Sketchfab was born, an online service for publishing and sharing interactive, real-time 3D models with no plugin required. It requires no installation, just a browser that supports WebGL and HTML5.

There are several usage plans: a free one, a paid one for individual users, and another, also paid, for companies. To publish a SketchUp file on this service, you need to export the model as .3DS, .DAE, .DWF, or .OBJ. To learn more, visit https://sketchfab.com/3d-viewer.
