Polygon counter

Count the triangles, vertices, meshes, materials and textures of a 3D model, mesh by mesh. Drop in a GLB, glTF, OBJ, STL, PLY or FBX file, see the totals and the model's size, and save the table as CSV. Free, in your browser.

How to count polygons in a 3D model

  1. 1Drop a GLB, glTF, OBJ, STL, PLY or FBX file in
  2. 2Read the triangle total and the facts about the model
  3. 3Check the table per mesh, or save it as CSV
  4. A triangle count, a table per mesh and a CSV.

What happens to your files

  • Nothing is uploaded.The model is read and counted by your browser, on your own device.
  • Per mesh, not just a total.Each mesh lists its triangles, vertices, parts and materials.
  • Many formats, one count.GLB, glTF, OBJ, STL, PLY and FBX are counted the same way.

What you can do

  • Get the triangle count as one big number, with the number of vertices, meshes, materials, textures, nodes and animations.
  • See the model's size as X × Y × Z and the file size.
  • Read a table with every mesh's triangles, vertices, parts and materials, and one with each texture's size, type and bytes.
  • See the extensions the file uses, such as Draco compression.
  • Save the per-mesh table as a CSV file for a spreadsheet.

Good to know

  • Triangles are counted, not quads. A model made of quads shows the triangles they split into.
  • When parts of the model are repeated, a line also shows the triangles drawn with repeats.
  • For a glTF with separate files, drop the .bin and textures with it.

Questions

How do I count the polygons of a 3D model?

Drop the file in. The tool shows the triangle count right away, the vertices and a table per mesh.

Does it count triangles or polygons?

Triangles, which is what graphics cards draw. A quad counts as two triangles.

Which files can I count?

GLB, glTF, OBJ, STL, PLY and FBX.

Is my file uploaded?

No. It is read and counted in your browser, on your own device.

How it works

Small tools that run in your browser.

Four steps

  1. Start with a file or a task

    Drop a file, search, or pick a task.

  3. Results collect on the right

    Drag a result into the next tool.

  4. Save when you're done

    Saved files go to your downloads.
