Meshy

Generate 3D models from text and images with AI in minutes

Freemium
Meshy is an AI 3D content generation platform that dramatically lowers the barrier to 3D asset creation. Using either a text prompt or a reference image, Meshy generates complete, textured 3D models in minutes — a process that traditionally requires hours or days of skilled 3D modeling work. Meshy's Text to 3D feature accepts natural language descriptions like "a medieval stone castle tower with battlements" and produces a fully textured 3D model ready for use in game engines, virtual environments, or 3D printing. The Image to 3D feature reconstructs 3D models from reference photographs or concept art, enabling artists to bring 2D designs into three dimensions rapidly. Generated models come with diffuse, normal, and roughness texture maps and export in standard formats: OBJ, FBX, GLB, STL, and USD. GLB and USD outputs are ready for direct import into Unity, Unreal Engine, Blender, and other 3D tools. Meshy's Text to Texture feature takes an existing untextured 3D mesh and generates AI textures based on a text description — "weathered stone with moss" or "polished chrome with scratches" — enabling fast iteration on material appearances without UV painting. Game developers, virtual production teams, metaverse builders, e-commerce brands (for 3D product visualization), and 3D printing enthusiasts use Meshy to accelerate 3D content pipelines. With API access and a generous free tier, it is accessible to individual creators and production teams alike.
