Turn your product catalogue into planner-ready 3D models

Planner 5D for Business builds a custom 3D product catalogue for your room planner, configurator, or ecommerce experience — from whatever assets you already have. Then a self-service tool lets your team upload, organise, and publish products on their own, no developer needed for everyday updates.

A planner is only useful if customers can design with products they can actually buy

Most businesses do not have a planner-ready 3D catalogue. Getting there — and keeping it current — is rarely straightforward.

Existing 3D files are often not optimised for web or planner use
Supplier assets need cleanup, resizing, or material adjustments
Product photos exist, but there are no 3D models
Technical drawings must be translated into usable 3D assets
Variants, finishes, dimensions, and SKUs need to stay organised
Every product change means another developer ticket and delay

Four ways to create your 3D catalogue

Every company starts from a different point. Choose the path that fits your existing assets — or combine more than one. Whichever you pick, the result lands in the same self-service tool your team manages day to day.

PATH 01
You have 3D files

Import your existing models

Upload and test your existing files directly in Planner 5D. The self-upload tool supports a wide range of formats including .blend, .obj, .fbx, .gltf, .glb, .stl, .stp, and .usdz.

Best for: Models from manufacturing, ecommerce, AR, or supplier workflows.
PATH 02
Files need cleanup

Adjust existing assets

Our team fine-tunes your models — optimising file size, adjusting geometry, improving materials, aligning scale, cleaning textures, and preparing variants to Planner 5D specs.

Best for: Supplier files, CAD exports, or ecommerce 3D assets needing cleanup.
PATH 03
No 3D files yet

Build models from scratch

Planner 5D builds high-quality models from the information you have — technical drawings, dimensions, reference images, and specifications.

Best for: Physical products with no existing 3D asset library.
PATH 04
AI — from photos

Auto-generate from images

An AI tool generates realistic 3D product models from product pictures. It recognises shape and visual detail from the image, then creates a 3D model as a starting point for your catalogue.

Best for: Product images that need to become 3D models faster.

AI-generated 3D models from product pictures

Upload a product photo and the AI generates a realistic, ready-to-use 3D model. No 3D skills needed — the model ships straight into your self-service catalogue.

Input — product photo
Furniture product photo used to generate a 3D model
Any product photo → AI recognises shape, material, and form
Output — interactive 3D model
Rotate, zoom, and inspect — ready for your planner catalogue

Let's turn your products into a 3D catalogue

Share what you already have — 3D files, product photos, drawings, supplier files, or catalogue data. We'll help you choose the best path and get your team running the self-service tool.

Book a demo

Manage your whole catalogue yourself — no developer required

Once your initial models are live, the self-service tool puts the catalogue in your team's hands. Upload, edit, organise, and publish in minutes — without raising a ticket or waiting on a release cycle.

Your expected workflow

1

Upload

Drag in 3D models and photos through the self-upload tool — common formats supported out of the box.

2

Validate & test

Preview each model in the planner and check scale, geometry, and materials before customers see it.

3

Organise & map data

Sort into categories, attach SKUs, pricing, and variants, and group items into sets.

4

Publish

Make products live or hide them with one action — changes appear in the planner immediately.

What makes a model planner-ready?

A good 3D model for a planning experience needs to be more than attractive — it has to work inside an interactive product. We prepare every model against these standards, and the self-service tool keeps them consistent as you add more.

Correct scale & dimensions

Models match real product sizes so rooms feel accurate in 2D and 3D.

Clean geometry

Mesh quality affects how each model renders and performs inside the planner.

Realistic materials

Surfaces match the real finish — fabric, wood, metal, glass, or paint.

Web-performance optimised

File size is controlled so the planner stays fast and responsive for end users.

Variants & finishes

Colour, material, and size variants map to separate model states or configurations.

SKU & data mapping

Each model links to the right SKU, name, price, and data for cart or quote output.

Consistent visual quality

Every model in the catalogue shares lighting, scale, and material style.

Planner-workflow ready

Models snap, rotate, and configure correctly inside the planning environment.

Frequently asked questions

Can we manage the catalogue ourselves?
Yes. Once your initial models are ready, a self-service tool lets your team upload models, edit SKU and pricing data, organise products into categories and collections, manage variants, and publish or hide items — without a developer for everyday updates.
Do we need existing 3D models to start?
No. Existing 3D models help but are not required. Planner 5D can use your existing files, adapt supplier assets, build models from scratch from drawings and specs, or automatically generate models from product photos using AI.
Which 3D file formats does the self-upload tool support?
The self-upload tool supports many common 3D formats, including .blend, .obj, .fbx, .ply, .gltf, .glb, .stl, .stp, .igs, .usd, .usdc, .usdz, .uzda, .vrm, and .max.
Can Planner 5D check if our models are usable?
Yes. During pre-sales, Planner 5D can assess whether your existing models are suitable and advise what needs to be adjusted before launch. After signing, your team can also test uploads directly through the self-upload tool.
Can you create models from photos or technical drawings?
Yes. An AI tool can automatically generate realistic 3D product models from product pictures, and the Planner 5D team can build models from technical drawings, dimensions, assembly documentation, and reference materials.
Can product variants be supported?
Yes. Variants such as colours, materials, finishes, sizes, components, and configurations can be supported and managed through the self-service tool, depending on the product and project scope.
Do we need a developer to keep the catalogue up to date?
No. Day-to-day catalogue work — adding products, updating prices, reorganising collections, publishing or hiding items — is handled by your team in the self-service tool. Developers are only needed for the initial integration.
