The honest brief

Meshy

The most balanced 3D generator — text/image-to-3D, PBR textures, topology control, and broad engine exports in one tool.

  • Clean meshes, good edge flow
  • Auto-rigging and topology controls
  • Blender/Unity/Unreal exports
  • API for pipeline automation
  • Geometry can look soft vs Rodin
  • Less beginner-friendly
  • Locked to one in-house model
  • Credit-based freemium

Spline

A real collaborative 3D editor for interactive web scenes first, with AI generation bolted on as an accelerator — not a prompt-only toy.

  • Full browser-based 3D editor
  • Exports scenes for the web
  • Real-time collaboration
  • AI object/texture/animation generation
  • Learning curve for non-designers
  • AI generation is secondary to manual editing
  • Heavy scenes can tax browsers
