HiddenMark™ — Leak Tracing TurboSquid Doesn't Have
Every paid download on Proofly includes a unique steganographic watermark embedded directly into the mesh geometry — not metadata that slicers strip. If a buyer redistributes your STL on Discord or Telegram, you upload the leaked file to proofly.store/hiddenmark and identify which buyer it came from in seconds.
TurboSquid delivers the same file to every buyer — zero forensic traceability.
How HiddenMark works →In-Browser 3D Viewer — Buyers Inspect Before Buying
Proofly renders your STL, GLB, or OBJ directly in the browser — buyers rotate, zoom, and inspect mesh topology before committing. For 3D printing buyers, this means they can evaluate overhang complexity, check geometry, and confirm quality. TurboSquid shows static renders.

What percentage does TurboSquid take from sales?
TurboSquid takes 40–60% of every sale depending on exclusivity and seller tier. New non-exclusive sellers start at 40% commission (you keep 60%). Proofly takes 0% from sellers — the buyer pays a flat ~$1 service fee instead, and you keep 100% of the price you set.
Can I sell STL and 3MF files on TurboSquid?
TurboSquid supports many formats but its audience is primarily VFX, game, and visualization buyers — not 3D printing buyers. Proofly is purpose-built for printable 3D files: STL, GLB, OBJ, 3MF, FBX, and ZIP packages. Buyers on Proofly specifically search for print-ready models.
Does TurboSquid protect 3D model files from piracy?
TurboSquid does not watermark individual buyer downloads. Proofly's HiddenMark™ embeds a unique steganographic fingerprint into the mesh geometry of every paid download — invisible to buyers but traceable if leaked. If someone redistributes your file, uploading it to proofly.store/hiddenmark identifies the source buyer in seconds.
Do I need to be exclusive to TurboSquid?
TurboSquid's exclusivity tiers offer higher revenue splits but restrict you from selling on other platforms. Proofly requires no exclusivity — you can list the same models on multiple marketplaces. Many creators keep TurboSquid for its existing customer base while adding Proofly for the 0% commission and 3D-print audience.
How much more would I earn on Proofly vs TurboSquid?
On a $20 model with 100 sales: TurboSquid at 40% commission = you earn $1,200. Proofly at 0% commission = you earn $2,000. That's $800 more on just 100 sales. The gap widens significantly at higher volumes or higher price points.
Can I sell on both TurboSquid and Proofly at the same time?
Yes. Proofly requires no exclusivity, so you can list the same models on TurboSquid and Proofly simultaneously. Many creators use TurboSquid for its existing VFX and game-dev customer base while using Proofly for 3D-print buyers who get 0% commission sales. Dual-listing costs nothing extra on Proofly — there are no listing fees.
