PyVista is:

* *Pythonic VTK*: a high-level API to the `Visualization Toolkit`_ (VTK)
* mesh data structures and filtering methods for spatial datasets
* 3D plotting made simple and built for large/complex data geometries

.. _Visualization Toolkit: https://vtk.org

PyVista is a helper module for the Visualization Toolkit (VTK) that wraps the VTK library
through NumPy and direct array access through a variety of methods and classes.
This package provides a Pythonic, well-documented interface exposing
VTK's powerful visualization backend to facilitate rapid prototyping, analysis,
and visual integration of spatially referenced datasets.

This module can be used for scientific plotting for presentations and research
papers as well as a supporting module for other mesh 3D rendering dependent
Python modules; see Connections for a list of projects that leverage
PyVista.

PyVista is a NumFOCUS affiliated project

Professional Support
====================

PyVista is a community-driven Open Source project, but many users and organizations rely on it in production workflows, research pipelines, and custom visualization systems. If you need expert guidance, development help, or guaranteed support, there are several ways to engage with the people who build and maintain PyVista.

For general inquiries, reach out to info@pyvista.org and we can help connect you with the right community experts for your 3D visualization or analysis needs.

If you are looking for professional services (consulting, custom development, feature design, integration support, or training), consider sponsoring PyVista's core developers through the “Sponsor this project” section on GitHub. Sponsorship not only provides direct access to experts but also helps sustain critical maintenance and ongoing feature work that keeps PyVista reliable and modern.

More details can be found in the discussion post: https://github.com/pyvista/pyvista/discussions/4033

Sponsoring a developer supports both your project and the health of the PyVista ecosystem, ensuring continued improvements, long-term stability, and expert help when you need it.
