Clear support, clear limits. Peek3D is a preview engine, not a CAD editor.

Preview limits: geometry uses neutral shading; materials, textures, point colors and animation are not displayed. Mesh/scan files are limited to 100 MB. Meshes can display up to one million triangles. Point clouds accept up to three million points and display a sample of up to 50,000. GLB/glTF supports static dense triangle lists; some extensions and encodings are unsupported. STEP, STP, IGES, IGS and BREP are not supported.
Meet the engine

Small scope.
Useful detail.

Peek3D is FilePeek’s independent mesh and point-cloud preview engine. It reads supported geometry locally and displays it through Windows graphics.

Drag to orbit, right-drag to pan, scroll to zoom, and double-click to reset. Point counts tell you when you’re viewing a sample.

A preview, not an upload.

FilePeek does not send your previewed files to our servers. Its current release candidate has no developer-operated analytics or advertising SDK.

Microsoft Store licensing uses Microsoft’s services. Visiting this website or contacting support has separate data handling.

A few useful answers

Before you peek.

Can I edit or convert a model?

No. Peek3D is for viewing. Use Open file to launch the file’s usual application for editing or conversion.

Will it open STEP or IGES files?

No. STEP, STP, IGES, IGS and BREP are not supported in this release. Export STL, OBJ, PLY or GLB from the original application for a supported preview.

Are all point-cloud points displayed?

Small clouds display in full. Larger clouds use a deterministic sample of up to 50,000 points, and the preview shows both the displayed and total point counts.

Where can I download FilePeek?

The Microsoft Store release is still being prepared and tested. A verified download link will appear here after publication. We are not accepting orders or payments on this website.
