Auto-detect geometry file format and extract metadata statistics.
Accepts a 3D geometry file via URL or base64 and returns structured
metadata: bounding boxes, triangle counts, manifold analysis, point
cloud statistics, and more. This is a read-only analysis tool — it
does not perform mesh repair, format conversion, or boolean operations.
Supported formats: STL, OBJ, PLY, PCD, LAS/LAZ, glTF/GLB.
STEP and IGES support is planned.
Provide either file_url (preferred for large files) or file_b64
(for files under 200KB). Include filename for format detection if
using file_b64. When using file_url, the format is detected from
the URL path extension; filename is not required.
Files under 150KB are free. Larger files cost $0.02/MB via x402
(USDC on Base) or card via MPP (Stripe; adds $0.35 surcharge).
If payment is required, the response includes payment details.
Retry with the payment argument containing the payment proof.
