In their own words
Blendkit
Blendkit is an asset library integrated directly into Blender 3D. Its collection includes models, materials, brushes, scenes, HDRIs, node groups and add-ons, with about half of the library completely free. The Free plan lists 23,300 models, 40,938 materials, 1,070 scenes, 4,994 HDRIs, 1,272 brushes, uploads and 200 MiB of private storage. Full costs $9.90 a month and Business costs $29 a month; both list larger collections, more storage and extra add-ons. Downloads are unlimited during a subscription period. Uploaded assets receive a quality check, and licensing options include Royalty-free and CC0 for commercial and non-commercial use. The Blender add-on requires Blender 3.0 or newer and works best with the latest Blender LTS version. Experimental plugins are offered for Godot, Maya and Rhino. The free Maya plugin supports browsing and dragging assets into Maya but is in early alpha; the Rhino plugin supports Rhino 8 on Windows and macOS, including Apple Silicon. Blendkit says 5% of subscription fees go to open-source development and the Blender Development Fund.
Unity Version Control
Unity Version Control is an engine-agnostic source control tool for game development teams working with large files and binaries. It supports centralized and distributed workflows with branching and merging, as well as file-based workflows for artists. Smart Locks check that a user has the latest version before allowing a file lock, helping reduce merge conflicts. Teams can use Unity-hosted cloud servers or run the server on their own infrastructure. Desktop clients are available for Windows, macOS on Apple Silicon or Intel, and Linux. Named integrations and supported tools include JIRA, Rider, TeamCity, Jenkins, Bamboo, Unreal Engine and Discord. The free tier is free and includes unlimited cloud seats, 25 GB storage per organization per month and 100 GB egress per month; usage beyond included limits is pay-as-you-go. Unity lists on-prem seats at $38 a month. Upload and download communications use SSL, and permissions can be set for repositories, branches and individual items.
