Meshy

AI 3D model generator that turns text or images into game-ready, printable 3D models in under a minute

4.5 / 5Open Site

Meshy generates 3D models from text prompts or a single image, with output built for two very different audiences: 3D printing (watertight, manifold meshes with an auto-repair pass, multi-color/Auto Split support, and direct export to slicers like Bambu Studio and OrcaSlicer) and game development (one-click PBR texturing, auto-rigging for humanoid and quadruped characters with 600+ motion presets, and Low Poly mode for real-time performance). Models export to STL, OBJ, 3MF, FBX, GLB, and USDZ, and integrate with Unity, Unreal Engine, Godot, Blender, and Maya. A 3D Agent and MCP server let you generate models conversationally or directly inside Claude, Cursor, and other AI agents.

Best for
Game developers, 3D printing hobbyists, and creators who need a finished 3D model - textured, rigged, or print-ready - from a text prompt or photo instead of modeling from scratch
Pricing
Free plan available (100 credits/month, no credit card); paid plans from $10/mo (Starter, 250 credits/month) up to $70/mo (Studio, 5,500 credits/month, team workspaces); Enterprise is custom

Core features

  • • Text-to-3D and Image-to-3D model generation
  • • Watertight, manifold meshes with auto-repair for 3D printing
  • • Multi-color texture mapping and Auto Split for complex prints
  • • One-click PBR texturing (albedo, normal, metallic, roughness)
  • • Auto-rigging for humanoid and quadruped characters, 600+ motion presets
  • • Low Poly mode for real-time game performance
  • • Export to STL, OBJ, 3MF, FBX, GLB, USDZ
  • • 3D Agent and MCP server for conversational generation inside AI agents

Use cases

  1. 1. Turning a sketch or photo into a printable 3D figure or miniature
  2. 2. Generating and rigging a game character ready to animate
  3. 3. Producing low-poly assets that fit a real-time game's performance budget
  4. 4. Building out a game world's props and assets for playtesting

How to use

Describe a model in text or upload a photo/sketch, then generate a 3D mesh in under a minute. For printing, export directly to a slicer (Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer, and more); for games, add PBR textures, auto-rig characters with a motion preset, and export to Unity, Unreal, Godot, Blender, or Maya.

FAQ

Is Meshy free to use?

Yes, the Free plan includes 100 credits per month with no credit card required. Paid plans start at $10/mo (Starter) for more credits and downloads.

Are Meshy models actually ready to 3D print?

Meshy generates watertight, manifold meshes built for printing, with a built-in printability check that scans every export and auto-repairs edge cases before slicing.

Can Meshy generate rigged, animated game characters?

Yes — auto-rigging works on humanoid and quadruped characters, with over 600 motion presets (walk cycles, idles, jumps, attacks, and more) available from the Starter plan up.

Where it holds up

  • Models come out watertight and manifold for 3D printing, with a built-in printability check and auto-repair instead of manual mesh cleanup
  • Covers both 3D printing (slicer export, multi-color splitting) and game development (PBR texturing, auto-rigging, 600+ motion presets) in one tool
  • Free plan needs no credit card and includes 100 real monthly credits, not just a capped one-time trial

Where it falls short

  • Unlimited downloads and full API/plugin/MCP access require the $20/mo Pro plan — Free and Starter are more limited
  • Team workspaces and shared team credits are reserved for the $70/mo Studio plan
  • Free-tier assets are licensed CC BY 4.0 (attribution required); a private, customer-owned license starts at the Starter plan
