Convert 3D models and images to voxels
Turn an OBJ, STL, GLB or glTF file, or a picture, into editable voxels in your browser. Free, no account, and the result saves as a MagicaVoxel .vox file.
Pick your format
OBJ to voxel
Wavefront OBJ, with its .mtl colours and textures
→STL to voxel
3D-printing and CAD models, Z-up by default
→GLB to voxel
Binary glTF, as exported by most 3D tools and AI generators
→glTF to voxel
glTF with its .bin and textures, picked together
→Image to voxel
PNG, JPG or WebP as a flat voxel picture
→How it works
Open the file
Open the editor and choose Main menu → Import 3D Model or Image…, or drop the file on the canvas.
Pick the size
Set the longest edge in voxels, up to 512. The voxels appear on the canvas as you move the slider, and a model bigger than the canvas grows it to fit.
Edit and save
Edit the voxels with every VoxiGen tool, then save as .vox for MagicaVoxel or as .vxb, free and without an account.
What to expect

| Colours | Mapped into a palette of up to 256 colours |
| Account | None needed to import, edit or save .vox and .vxb files |
| Price | Free. GLB, glTF, OBJ and STL export come with the Founder licence, $29.99 once |
| .vox files | Up to 256 voxels per side, the format's own limit; larger models save as .vxb |
| Browser | A recent desktop Chrome, Edge or Safari with WebGPU |
Questions
Is the converter free?
Yes. Importing, editing and saving as .vox or .vxb are free and need no account. Exporting back to a mesh (GLB, glTF, OBJ, STL) comes with the one-time $29.99 Founder licence.
Can I get a .vox file for MagicaVoxel?
Yes, choose .vox in the Save dialog. A .vox file holds up to 256 voxels per side, so keep the longest edge at 256 or less, or save larger models as .vxb.
Can I convert FBX, DAE or PLY files?
Not directly. Open them in Blender (free) and export as GLB or OBJ, then import that file.
