What does the JSON contain?

One entry per object with its name, type, location, rotation, and scale, plus vertex coordinates, face index lists, and material names for mesh objects.

Are textures or animation included?

No. The geometry and object hierarchy from the .obj are converted to JSON. External .mtl texture images and animation data are not embedded.

Is this the same as opening the file in Blender?

Same engine, smaller job. Blender runs headless to parse the model and emit a readable JSON report; you do not get a 3D viewport.

Convert OBJ 3D models to JSON online

Need to read a 3D model without launching a full editor? This page converts a Wavefront .obj file into structured JSON you can inspect, diff, or feed into other tools.

How to convert an OBJ to JSON

Upload a .obj file up to 40 MB.
Press Convert file and review the JSON result.

What you get

A JSON report of the scene as Blender's OBJ importer reads it:

Objects — name, type, location, rotation, and scale
Meshes — vertex coordinates, face index lists, vertex/face counts
Materials — material names assigned to each mesh

Internal temp paths and exporter chatter stay hidden.

When this helps

Checking model scale, counts, or topology before importing into a game engine
Diffing two versions of a model as text instead of in a viewport
Feeding 3D geometry into web viewers, scripts, or documentation
Validating that a model exports cleanly without installing software
