Getting started

From zero to your first 3D model in under five minutes. This page is the shortest possible path through the platform. Every other doc page goes deeper on a single step.

1. Create an account

Go to /signup and either fill in email + password or use a one-click sign-in button. No card needed, and every new account starts with 50 free credits, 3 of which make models, so you can see what the platform does before spending anything.

After signup you land on /dashboard. Empty library, no models yet. That's the next step.

2. Generate your first model

  1. Click Create Your Model in the header (or the "+ New" tile on the dashboard).
  2. Say what you are making: a whole figure, a body part, or an object. That choice is what tells us how much of the subject belongs in the model.
  3. Drag a photo onto the upload area, or click to browse. A clean, well-lit photo of a single subject works best. See Create models → what makes a good photo.
  4. The platform cleans the photo, isolates the subject, and draws the single reference picture the 3D step works from.
  5. Check that reference picture and press Confirm. This is the moment to catch a wrong subject or a bad crop, before the expensive half runs.
  6. Watch the progress strip: enhancing → generating → ready.

When the job finishes you land on the result page with a live 3D viewer. Rotate it. Zoom in. If you don't like it, hit Generate again with a different photo.

3. Download or publish

Two things you can do with a finished model:

  • Download. Below the viewer, pick a print scale (1:24 / 1:32 / 1:43 / etc.) and a file format (STL is the default for 3D printing). The platform resizes and converts the mesh on the fly and sends it to your downloads folder. See Exporting for the full format list.
  • Publish. Choose Share it in Community models on the result page (or flip it later from the dashboard library card). Shared models show up in Community models for everyone, and gain likes / votes / views.

4. Where to go next

  • Curious how the AI turns one photo into a full model? Intelligence explains the enhancement and the reference picture behind every generation.
  • Curious how the pricing works? Billing covers the Membership and Packages covers the credit packs you create with.
  • Need to clean up the mesh for printing? Fixing covers Prepare for print, the Studio's repair tools, and the desktop Fixer app.
