MODEL. REPAIR.
Print perfectly.

Essential is Clean Studio's browser-based 3D editor: sculpt, repair, resize and simplify your STL models before sending them to the slicer, for a clean print on the first try.

Why model in your browser

No software to install, no dedicated computer needed: Essential goes wherever you work.

Zero installation

Everything you need before the slicer

From a raw file to a clean, print-ready model, without ever leaving your browser.

Sculpting brushes

Inflate, remove material, smooth, deform with the elastic brush, or add local detail: five brushes with adjustable radius, strength and hardness, with real-time preview.

Automatic repair

Closes open edges, fixes defective faces and mesh cavities, even without a full remesh, so you don't lose detail or bloat the file.

Remesh & simplify

Rebuild topology with surface subdivision or voxel remesh, or reduce the triangle count while keeping the original shape.

Flat base

Place a cutting plane and get a flat, closed base in one click, ready for the print bed.

Precise dimensions

Resize per axis in millimeters, with locked or free proportions, and revert to the original size anytime.

Undo/redo history

Every stroke and every transform can be undone: experiment freely without any risk of ruining your model.

What we're building next

Essential keeps evolving — here's what we're working on.

Split, for printing without an AMS

Soon you'll be able to split a model into separate parts meant to be printed individually — one per color or material — and glued together afterwards, no AMS system required.
