Ben Houston — Founder
Ben Houston has spent his career at the intersection of 3D graphics and the web.
He is a long-time contributor to Three.js and a co-author of the glTF standard at the Khronos Group. He also co-created Deadline, the render farm management system that became the Hollywood VFX industry standard, later acquired by Amazon, where it now runs inside AWS as Deadline Cloud.
MTLX.ai applies that background in open 3D standards to a simple, public library for MaterialX materials.
Open Standards, Open Ecosystem
MTLX.ai builds on MaterialX 1.39, three.js, and the open-source Mtlx suite. Public materials are hosted and delivered at no cost.
