What is it?

What is Meshy AI?

Meshy is an AI 3D model generator that turns text prompts or 2D images into fully textured, export-ready 3D assets in under two minutes with no 3D modeling skills required.

It covers the whole pipeline: generation, texturing, remeshing, rigging and animation. The platform is built for 3D artists, game developers, 3D-printing hobbyists, XR prototypers, students and product teams who need speed and iteration over hand-crafted perfection.

Generated models can drop straight into Blender, Unity, Unreal Engine and 10+ other tools or go to a 3D printer.

๐Ÿ“

Text to 3D

Describe an idea in any language (up to 800 characters) and get a textured model.

๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธ

Image to 3D

Upload a photo, sketch or concept art and watch it become a 3D model.

๐ŸŽจ

AI Texturing

Apply PBR surface detail from a prompt or reference image.

๐ŸŽž๏ธ

3D to Video

Spin any model into a cinematic, shareable render.

Pricing ยท Subscription ยท Credits

Plans, credits & how billing works

Meshy runs on a credit system not tokens. Each generation, texture pass or remesh consumes credits from your monthly allowance.

๐Ÿ’Ž Credits, not tokens

Meshy's currency is credits. There's no separate "token" every action (generate, texture, remesh) spends a set number of credits.

๐Ÿ” Monthly reset

Plan credits reset each month and do not roll over unless you buy a credit pack, which gives permanent credits.

โ™ป๏ธ Save 20% yearly

Monthly and annual billing are available. Paying annually saves about 20% versus month-to-month.

Is Meshy AI free?

Yes there's a genuinely free plan, plus ways to try Pro.

  • Free forever plan: $0, no card needed, with 100 credits/month and 10 Meshy-5 downloads/month.
  • Free assets are CC BY 4.0 public & shared with the community (attribution required).
  • "Pro free" trial: students get the first month of Pro free, then $5.99/mo; seasonal promos sometimes add bonus credits or first-month discounts.
  • No free unlimited: commercial rights, private assets, API and latest-model downloads need a paid plan.

Limitations to know

Honest constraints before you commit.

  • Free download cap: 10 downloads/month, Meshy 5 models only newest models generate but won't download on Free.
  • Polycount on Free is capped at 10,000; high-detail meshes need a paid plan.
  • Credits don't roll over each month unless you buy a credit pack.
  • AI quirks: fine details (hands/fingers, thin parts, text) can need retries; results suit prototyping & iteration more than final hero assets.
  • Queue limits & priority are lower on free/cheaper tiers.
