Convert DAE to glTF online

Drop a .dae file to turn it into glTF. You see the model in 3D before converting, and the file never leaves your device.

About DAE

COLLADA

DAE (COLLADA) is an XML-based exchange format that keeps scene hierarchy, materials, skeletons and animation.

About glTF

GL Transmission Format 2.0

glTF is the JSON flavour of glTF 2.0. The scene description lives in the .gltf file, while geometry sits in a .bin file and textures in images — select them all together.

How it works

  1. 01

    Drop the .dae file (with its textures or .bin/.mtl files, if any).

  2. 02

    Check the model in the 3D preview; glTF is already selected.

  3. 03

    Click “Convert” and the .gltf file downloads.

Questions

Is the DAE to glTF converter free?+

Yes, without limits, sign-up or watermark.

Is my DAE file uploaded?+

No. The DAE file is read and converted in your browser; nothing is sent to a server.

Why are textures missing after converting DAE?+

Textures stored as separate files must be selected together with the model. glTF keeps them only if the format supports textures.
