How we build
Your files stay on your machine
The desktop apps run offline and the browser tools process files on your device. Depthue Studio edits locally too, and uploads only when you run a cloud job, save to the cloud or share a proof.
Pay once for software you keep
The desktop apps are one payment with a lifetime licence, updates and a 14-day refund. Depthue Studio renews because it runs cloud jobs and keeps your orders between visits.
Output that works on the first try
Watertight meshes, flat backgrounds and correct scale. A file that needs repair before it slices is a bug, not a feature.
Built for the shop floor
Settings are named after what they do to the wood, the filament or the metal, not after the maths behind them.
Editorial standards
Guides on the blog are written and tested by the Depthue Lab team. Each shows the date it was last checked.
We say when we compete
Depthue sells DepthGen Pro, VoxelPrime and Depthue Studio. Comparison pages name our product as ours, recommend other tools where they fit better, and link their sources.
Claims we can check
Prices, platforms and features of other products come from their own pages at the time of writing. Anything we could not confirm is marked as not listed, not guessed.
