Meshy
Meshy turns text, images, or sketches into 3D models for games, 3D printing, animation, and design.
Meshy is a web-based AI 3D creation tool. It generates models from text, images, or sketches, adds PBR textures, creates multi-view images, and supports rigging and animation.
Creators use it for game assets, printable models, product concepts, film and VFX work, and education. The free plan includes monthly credits, while generation consumes credits and some features require paid access. Meshy also provides an API and plugins for selected 3D tools.
Features
- Generate 3D models from text prompts
- Convert photos, sketches, and concept art into 3D models
- Apply PBR textures with albedo, normal, metallic, and roughness maps
- Auto-rig humanoid and quadruped characters
- Animate characters with 600+ motion presets
- Create low-poly models with controllable polygon counts
- Check and repair model printability
- Export models in formats including FBX, GLB, OBJ, USDZ, STL, and 3MF
Use cases
- Create game-ready characters and props
- Generate models for single-color or multi-color 3D printing
- Prototype product and toy designs
- Prepare assets for animation, film, and VFX
- Turn concept art into models for visualization
- Integrate 3D generation into an application through the API
Pros
Cons
Latest updates
- New Relief API : turn one photo into a bas-relief 3D model (GLB and STL) and a 16-bit grayscale depth map, for 3D printing, laser engraving, and CNC carving.
Turns one photo into a bas-relief 3D model and depth map; parameters set size, carving mode, depth, base, bend, and mesh resolution.
- Added texture_model to Image to 3D and Multi-Image to 3D , so you pick the texture model in the same task as the mesh.
Adds texture_model to Image to 3D and Multi-Image to 3D; a task costs the mesh-only price plus the Retexture price.
- Added ai_model: "meshy-n1" to the Text to 3D refine.
Adds meshy-n1 to Text to 3D refine; without texture_image_url, it textures from the reference image that a Meshy 7.1 or latest preview stores.
- Added ai_model: "meshy-n1" to the Retexture API.
Meshy N1 makes a 2K base color texture from one to four reference images; a task costs 10 credits.
- Meshy T1 ( model_type: "lowpoly" and ai_model: "meshy-t1" ) has been retired on Text to 3D and Image to 3D , and model_type: "smart-topology" with ai_model: "meshy-t2.5" replaces it.
Meshy T1 has been retired on Text to 3D and Image to 3D; model_type: smart-topology with ai_model: meshy-t2.5 replaces it.
