Testimonials about
SquidValidator

"For me, it’s important that a tool is not only functional but pleasant to use — and SquidValidator is exactly that kind of tool. I liked the design: clean and minimal, yet well thought out — no distracting elements, everything is logical and straightforward. I use it every time I prepare an asset for a client, and it saves me tons of time. Everything is pre-configured for specific projects, so I rarely have to switch to other modes since everything is already tailored to my needs. It’s a very convenient tool."

SquidValidator has made my work — and my team's — much easier. It quickly spots issues we used to check manually and fixes some of them automatically. I set the team-wide standards once, and now everyone follows the same template. We spend far less time on annoying edits.

What I really like are the automatic fixes (‘fix it’) — they help quickly resolve small issues. I hope automation gets even smarter in the future, but overall, I’m really happy with this tool!

"I use SquidValidator daily, and it really speeds up my workflow. I love that with just one click, it finds all the issues with an asset in seconds. When you're working with a large number of assets, checking time becomes critical. SquidValidator takes that burden off my shoulders, so I can focus on the creative work. I use it with Maya."

I use a proprietary engine. Do I need to give access to it?

Which programs are supported?

How many checks can I include in one checklist?
