Models
The Models page is where every 3D file you've added to your workspace lives. Models are the source assets behind every project — when you create a project or run a Quick Render, you start by picking a model from this library.
Reach it at Asset Library → Models, or directly at /library/models.
What's on the page
Toolbar — Count of models in your workspace, an All / Favorites filter, search, sort, and an Add Model button on the right.
Asset grid — One card per model, showing a preview thumbnail, the model's name, and its processing status.
Card hover actions — Favorite, more menu (rename, delete), and a click-through to the details modal.
A model card's preview is generated automatically once processing finishes. Until then you'll see a placeholder cube.
Adding a model
Click Add Model in the top right of the toolbar to open the Add Model dialog. From there you can pick one of two paths:
Upload — Drop one or more 3D files (GLB, USD, FBX, OBJ, GLTF, or STL). Glossi converts and processes them in the background; you can close the modal once the upload starts and the page will track progress for you.
Photos — Provide a few photos of an object from different angles and Glossi's AI will generate a 3D model for you to use in the studio.
You can also drag a 3D file directly onto the Models page to open the upload modal pre-loaded with that file.
For the full upload guide — what happens during validation, processing, unwrap behavior, and best practices — see Uploading Your Models. For prepping files before upload, see Preparing Your 3D Assets and the import guides for individual 3D tools.
Filtering and finding
All — Every model in your workspace.
Favorites — Only models you've starred. Click the heart on any card to toggle.
Search — Filter to models whose name matches your query. Search is incremental — results narrow as you type.
Sort — Order by recency, name, or other model fields.
Opening a model
Click any model card to open the Model Details modal. Inside the modal you can:
Rename the model
Manage variants — Add or remove model variants (different versions of the same product — color options, configurations) so you can render them through the same project.
Edit tags — Tags help you organize and filter models across the workspace.
Replace the underlying file
Delete the model
Deleting a model is allowed only when no projects depend on it — Glossi will tell you which projects need to be reassigned or deleted first.
Tips
Upload in batches — The upload modal accepts multiple files at once. Drop a folder of products and let Glossi process them in parallel.
Use variants — Group different colorways or configurations of the same product as variants of one model rather than uploading them as separate models.
Favorite your hero models — If a few products dominate your visualization workflow, favoriting them keeps them surfaced in the Favorites filter and the homepage's recent-models rail.
