img2threejs
AI image-to-3D service that turns one reference image into a textured GLB model plus ready-to-use React Three Fiber and Three.js loaders
Overview
img2threejs.org is a hosted service that turns a reference image into a textured 3D model built for the web. Its main route, Native Mesh, uses AI models to generate a textured GLB asset; a second route, Editable Procedural Draft, produces a code-first Three.js scene you can edit in source. Each download comes as a package: the GLB with levels of detail, a React Three Fiber component, a vanilla Three.js loader, a materials file, a preview image and a README with performance measurements. It is aimed at web developers and designers who want a 3D object on a site without modeling it by hand. It is a separate product from the open-source img2threejs agent skill on GitHub.
The Verdict
Who Should Use img2threejs?
Best For
- Web developers adding a 3D product or hero object to a site
- React Three Fiber users who want a drop-in component
- Prototyping 3D scenes from a sketch or product photo
Not Ideal For
- Game artists who need rigged or animated characters
- Pipelines that need FBX or Blender files
- Teams that need a named vendor and published model details
What's Great
- Output is web-ready: GLB with LODs plus React Three Fiber and vanilla Three.js loaders
- Cheap builds: 1 credit for an editable draft, 3 credits for a textured mesh
- Failed 3D jobs are refunded automatically
- Top-up credits never expire
- New accounts get free credits for one standard build preview
Watch Out For
- Downloading the GLB requires a purchase
- AI models used for Native Mesh are not named
- No company name, founder or location on the site
- Credit pack prices are not listed on the pricing page
- Easy to confuse with the open-source img2threejs skill and other similarly named sites
