Sloyd
AI 3D model generator that creates, rigs and exports assets from text prompts or images.
Sloyd is an AI 3D model generator that creates models from text prompts, images or templates in the browser. Sloyd is used to produce game assets, printable objects and product models, which can be rigged, animated and exported as GLB, OBJ, FBX or STL. A free Guest plan allows one generation per day.
Best for Game developers and 3D printing hobbyists who need many models quickly and want to export them straight into engines or slicers.

What is Sloyd?
Sloyd is a browser-based 3D generator that builds models from a text description or from an uploaded picture, with parametric templates as a third route. Around the core generator sit tools for game production: automatic rigging and animation, 360° skyboxes, a scene editor with an AI layout agent, part splitting and pixel-art sprite sheets. A separate group of features targets 3D printing, including a watertight print preset, a printability check that flags holes and non-manifold edges, and colour-to-filament mapping for multicolour slicers. Models leave the app as GLB, OBJ, FBX or STL, and plugins send them to Unity, Unreal or Blender. The free Guest tier allows one AI generation a day; the paid Plus and Pro subscriptions advertise unlimited generation under fair-use limits and carry a commercial license. Developers get a separate 3D generation API paid with prepaid credits.
Key Features
Text to 3D
Builds a 3D model from a written description and lets you request further variations.
Image to 3D
Converts one photo, sketch or render into a textured model that follows its shape and proportions.
Rigging and Animation
Fits a skeleton to a character automatically, then applies preset motions or movement described in text.
Print Preparation
Keeps meshes watertight, adds a stable base and reports holes or non-manifold edges before slicing.
Topology Control
Sets a target polygon count and can output quads for later manual editing and animation.
Plugins and API
Sends assets to Unity, Unreal or Blender through plugins, and exposes generation to your own software through an API.

Use Cases
- Game Asset Production
- Generate props, characters, skyboxes and sprite sheets and revise them as the design changes.
- Tabletop Miniatures
- Create printable figures and props and export them as STL at the scale the print needs.
- Interior Visualisation
- Produce custom furniture models from a prompt or reference photo for walkthroughs.
- Film Previs
- Turn reference images into blocking geometry to judge layout and staging before a shoot.
- Product Pages in 3D
- Convert existing product photos into models for Shopify product media, AR or configurators.
Things to know
- Unlimited has fair-use limits
- According to the pricing FAQ, paid plans remain subject to fair use, to queue priority and to an AI capacity that differs by plan.
- API is a separate purchase
- A Web App subscription does not include API access; the API needs no subscription and is paid with prepaid credits.
- Free tier is for personal use
- The Guest plan carries a personal-use license, and after cancelling a paid plan the commercial license stops applying to new work.
- Some tools use monthly credits
- Features such as part splitting, multi-image to 3D and 500K-polygon generations draw on a monthly credit allowance.
