What is a SKP file, and how do you open it without SketchUp?
A .skp file is the native format of SketchUp, the 3D modelling software used by architects, interior designers, woodworkers and builders. Opening one normally needs SketchUp installed and licensed, or the SketchUp Viewer app downloaded on each device.
SKP Viewer is a free online SketchUp viewer. It converts the .skp file on our servers and shows it in any modern browser, on desktop or mobile, with nothing to install. Upload the file, wait a few seconds, and you get an interactive 3D model you can orbit, measure, section and share with a link.

SketchUp viewer FAQ
Short answers before you upload your first model.
Do I need SketchUp installed to open a .skp file?
No. SKP Viewer runs entirely in the browser. Upload the file and the model opens on your screen, on a computer, tablet or phone.
Is SKP Viewer really free?
Yes. The free plan lets you upload and view SketchUp models at no cost, with a daily upload quota. Pro plans add more uploads per month, larger files and a viewer without watermark.
Which SketchUp versions are supported?
Most .skp versions open without problems. If a file from a very recent SketchUp release fails, save it as an older version in SketchUp and upload it again.
Who can see my model?
Only people who have the link. Your uploaded models are not listed anywhere on the site.
Can I share a model with someone who has no account?
Yes. Copy the link from the viewer and send it. The recipient opens it in any browser, with nothing to install or sign up for.
What tools does the online SketchUp viewer include?
Orbit, pan and zoom, first-person walk, measure, section planes, explode, a model browser to hide or isolate components, layers and tags, scenes, object properties and fullscreen mode.
What is the maximum file size?
Free uploads accept .skp files up to 25 MB. Pro plans raise the limit to 200 MB per file.
