Is this a slopified version of SketchUp or? I'm not interested in free AI clones, quality wise they're way worse and all it takes to see that is that after a bunch of clicks eveything blows up(artcraft is such an example). I'm in this positioning where I don't trust anymore any new software, the only next software I'll pay a licenze for will be one that has clear AI disclosure and how they avoid slop, or no AI usage at all. I want quality, we are getting back steaming shit

The slop you are talking about is the slop non-developers produce. I have been a developer for the past 20+ years. I know how to scale and stress-test an application. For instance (real data), my slop runs the exact same file at 240 FPS VS 45 on SketchUp.
There are good and bad slops.

So what's the full disclosure here? Do you know every line of code that has been pushed or not? Btw 240fps? Browser's fps are capped to monitor refresh rate

Follow up: I confirm what I said, the moment you start clicking around you experience all the wrong things

Is it "KetchUp" or "BenchUp", the website can't seem to agree with itself?

Lot of upvotes and positive comments for a piece of software that can't extrude a cube without glitching.
No point filing a bug report; if the AI can't write it right, the AI probably can't fix it, and no one is willing to do the work.

This doesn't match my experience at all. Frontier models are quite good at finding the cause of and fixing bugs, if they have access to the right tooling. LLMs can easily fix bugs that they introduced with the level of detail in the average bug report.

Small feature request: I can't figure out how to use it with a trackpad. Seems to be mouse-only. I use sketchup with a trackpad plus one of the different modifier keys for pan, zoom and orbit.

That name is really close to ask to be sued... remember the Mikerowsoft vs Microsoft.

yeah, it didn't think much of it until I started seeing a lot of stars on Github.. I think I'll rename it Dovetail3D

Seems to have been renamed to BenchUp now?

Better rename it to “I Can’t Believe it’s Not Cat Soup 3D”

The name also makes no sense anymore. Isn't it obvious that "SketchUp" is itself just a thin pun that references the word "ketchup"? They're just calling it nearly the exact same thing except that now "ketchup" on its own no longer has anything to do with drawing or sketching anything!!

Ironic typo in the repo description "100% vibe-coded, only the finest slop, with great emphase on rendering speed and UI/UX".

I loved SketchUp!
When I was first getting started with Unity I made all my early models in Sketchup. Thanks for sharing.
