Meshy vs Tripo: which one?
Both do the same thing (text and image to 3D). Pick based on which one’s output you like better on your content, and which pricing suits you. You can enable both in the same chat; the agent will pick based on your prompt, or you can nudge it with “use Tripo for this”.
| Meshy | Tripo | |
|---|---|---|
| Tier required | Pro tier or above | Standard / Pro tiers |
| Typical text-to-3D cost | ~20 credits (preview) | ~25 credits |
| Typical image-to-3D cost | ~30 credits | ~30 credits |
| Refine support | Yes | Yes |
| Retexture | Yes | Via re-generation |
| Output formats | GLB / FBX / OBJ | GLB / FBX / OBJ |
Results can look quite different between the two providers for the same prompt. Worth trying both on a few samples to see which suits your aesthetic.
Text-to-3D
Sci-fi modular wall panel, weathered metal, emissive LEDs, game-ready.
Same flow as Meshy: preview appears in the side panel, then Refine, Download, or Import UE5.
Image-to-3D
Paste an image URL or drag a reference image:
(attached image of a stone gargoyle)
The preview comes back with the mesh built from the reference view.
Output
- Side panel: Tripo has its own side panel separate from Meshy. Switch between them from the panel tabs.
- Imported meshes land at
/Game/<mesh-name>/, with materials set up for you. - Download as GLB, FBX, or OBJ.
