We finally launched CGHub.one

Hello, everyone!

We launched our 3d-models aggregator platform (called CGHub.one) in late 2025.
The main idea was to take the most famous 3d-marketplaces (like cgtrader/turbosquid/etc.) and combine them into one single catalog to help everyone discover the right 3D models faster—without the hassle of browsing multiple platforms.
From the other side creators will get an additional attention for their assets.

Important: CGHub does not grab the models itself (obviously) but redirects user to the original website for purchase/download.

We are currently continue working on asset aggregation, developing some additional features here and there.

At this point I want to kindly request any sort of feedback from anyone`s side.
This would be highly appreciated!  ;)

    Allow people to opt out of getting their work aggregated, preferentially without requiring them to create an account, implement a form to request takedowns of specific works that may get caught up by your crawler, and if you really need an account for a blanket-style block (eg don't ever aggregate works by user account X in service Y) then request only what's strictly necessary to fulfill that request and don't automatically opt them in to newsletters or marketing.

    I know, that's exactly the opposite of the mission of your platform, but the ones that shine today are the ones that are mindful of their users (and non-users). Having full control over my work in a service, specially being able to delete it and preferentially whether make it crawlable by search engines is a cornerstone to any portfolio and marketplace services I use nowadays. If you can't delete it then you don't own it, and I consider any service that prevents me from having this kind of control hostile for the contempt directed at their users and non-users.

    The services with the foresight to implement this kind of system on the other hand stand out from the rest of the churn.

    @Celosia Thanks a lot for the feedback, thats really valuable.
    1) Everyone can request deleting his works with no problems. This is what already described on "About us" page with a specific form for this. (Maybe worth transferring this to other place or providing detailed information?) 
    2) No any annoying newsletters or spamming advertisement planned. I do hate this kind of monetisation ways... We have much better ideas.
    3) Google crawling started being very active since ~January, 10. Getting more and more people finding us from google search during last couple weeks.
    4) Probably we will come to a point where we connect each account to its owner (not really soon, but thats the idea).

    Congrats on the launch! Aggregating multiple marketplaces into one catalog is a smart idea and definitely helps speed up asset discovery. Looking forward to seeing how it evolves.
