Any way to try out without discord?
I hate this business model.

Probably not, there is an impressive interactive 3D point cloud rendering, which only shows up after a few seconds. Perhaps you missed that?
How many seconds? I see a discord button, and then some weird blob thing wobbling around. After 30 seconds I got bored of watching it.
In that case you didn't miss anything. Weird wobbling blob thing is the "impressive interactive 3D point cloud".

#13Oh no, not another "join our discord to use it".
Its a weird choice of UI.
Why do companies do this? Is it a development shortcut or something?

Non-discord interfaces in the pipeline!

Yeah for sure. I guess one advantage is that since it's already in a chat, people can react and talk about it as it's happening.

#16Landing page is awesome, wonder how it was created
Thank you! I worked on this
We start with a point cloud generated from the model which has color and normal and render each particle as a little hexagon with metallic and iridescent shading. Each particle is given a position and velocity in a texture. Each frame we do a physics step that writes to these textures with fragment shaders. We sum the forces into the velocity texture:
- mouse interaction force
- flow force from time varying curl noise
- spring force to return to original position
- air resistance
last we do a euler step to update position texture. There’s masses of free parameters to control forces and materials, the animation is created by changing parameters per-particle over time
Tech: three.js, GLSL & TypeScript

You should be able to see the blob form models – perhaps there's some error when it runs on your system. It relies on floating-point textures which aren't supported everywhere
If you view this link https://lumalabs.ai/genie?s=1&d=-4, do you see the models more clearly?
If you _don't_ I'd be curious if any errors are reported in console

Yes with s=1?d=-4 the models are completely clear. I assume the semitransparent glittery look is intentional artistic choice."weird blob" weren't my words but I can imagine how someone could describe it that way considering that half of the time you see the transition animation during which it's much harder to recognize the object.
