Mesh Fusion is now an integrated module in the latest releases of Modo. It was originally a separate plugin, but no longer. I'm not a huge fan of Modo, so I don't know how deeply integrated the features are, but Mesh Fusion is actually a direct spinoff of the GroBoto technology. Darrel Anderson is actually working for The Foundry, and was one of the original designers of the Mesh Fusion product. Here's an article from 2016 about his work with The Foundry.

Ah, the Foundy, not Luxology.

When I first saw MeshFusion about 2 years ago my first thought was given enough time, it looked like it had the potential to make the whole nurbs vs polys issues go away.
