I kept wanting a quick way to turn a physical object into something I could 3D print, without learning CAD.

Ended up building Sculptly (https://sculptly3d.com/3d-model-from-images) -- upload a handful of smartphone photos from different angles and it outputs an STL/OBJ file ready for slicing. Curious if others here have run into the same photogrammetry-for-hobbyists gap.s and it outputs an STL/OBJ file ready for slicing.

Nice, this makes a lot of sense. What's been the most surprising part of it so far?
Have early users revealed whether Sculptly solves a recurring modeling problem for them, or is the main appeal simply avoiding CAD for occasional prints?
