Metasequoia

What is Metasequoia?

Metasequoia is a native 3D modeling application for creating and editing polygon-based 3D models on macOS and Windows. It is used by illustrators, hobbyists, and 3D artists who want a focused modeling tool for building characters, props, scenes, and other CG assets. The app supports common mesh editing work such as shaping geometry, adjusting vertices and faces, organizing objects, and preparing models for export. It is also used in workflows that need file exchange with other 3D tools and content pipelines. Metasequoia is developed by tetraface Inc. and is available for Intel and Apple Silicon Macs as a Universal app. On a Mac, users will typically encounter it as a standalone desktop app for hands-on 3D modeling rather than a background utility.

Key features

• Create and edit polygon-based 3D models
• Adjust vertices, edges, faces, and object geometry
• Organize multi-part models for character, prop, and scene work
• Export models for use in other 3D and CG workflows
• Run natively on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs
• Use a desktop-based modeling workflow on macOS and Windows

Safety overview

Status: Safe

Metasequoia is a legitimate desktop 3D modeling app. It mainly works with the files and projects you choose to open or save, which is normal for this kind of software. Removing it will stop access to the app and may leave your own model files untouched unless you delete them separately. As with any creative tool, keep backups of important projects before major edits, exports, or cleanup.

Recommendation: Keep Metasequoia if you use it for 3D modeling or need access to its project workflow. If you no longer use it, you can remove the app, but keep any model files, exports, or custom assets you still need.
