SketchUp is a proprietary 3D modeling software for creating and manipulating 3D models, aimed at architecture, interior design, set design, product design, and manufacturing.

SketchUp was founded by @Last Software in 2000, before the company was acquired by Google in 2006. Google subsequently sold Sketchup to Trimble Inc. in 2012. The software has a free web-based version and three paid subscriptions to gain access to applications for Windows and macOS.
