Photo3D

Photo3D is a free, browser-based tool that converts images into 3D assets (GLB format) without requiring an account.

What is Photo3D?

Photo3D is a web platform that generates textured 3D models from single images using AI models like Hunyuan3D-2.0. It runs entirely in the browser for local tools and uses a public queue for cloud-based generation. The platform is maintained by photo3d.org and requires no sign-up for basic use.

Key Features

• Image-to-3D Generation – Convert a single JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, or AVIF image (up to 10 MB) into a textured GLB model using the Hunyuan3D-2.0 model. No account or credits needed for the public queue.
• Local Browser Tools – Inspect GLB files with the 3D Model Viewer, edit and arrange models with the 3D Viewer & Editor, and examine scene structure with the GLB Inspector. All run locally without uploading data.
• Format Conversion – Convert between 3D formats (3MF, GLB, glTF, OBJ, PLY, STL) using the 3D Format Converter, all in the browser.
• Texture and Scale Checks – Verify texture dimensions with the Texture Checker and calculate real-world scale with the Model Scale Calculator before export.
• Image Preparation – Compress, convert, and create transparent PNGs using companion tools: Image Compressor, Image Converter, Transparent PNG Maker, and WebP Converter.
• Account-Based Workflows – Optional sign-in adds generation history, saved credits, and managed AI 3D tasks with rehosted model storage.

Who is it for?

• Designers – Quickly turn product photos or concept art into rough 3D prototypes for visualization without 3D modeling skills.
• Developers – Test GLB models in the browser before integrating them into web or game projects; inspect geometry, materials, and animations.
• Hobbyists – Experiment with AI 3D generation for free, explore different model pipelines, and learn 3D asset workflows using browser-based tools.

What can you do with Photo3D?

• Generate a 3D model from a photo – Upload a clear image of an object, choose Hunyuan3D-2.0, and receive a textured GLB model via the public queue.
• Inspect and prepare 3D assets – Use the 3D Model Viewer and GLB Inspector to review geometry, textures, and scene structure before handoff.
• Convert between 3D formats – Convert local files to GLB, OBJ, STL, or PLY using the 3D Format Converter for compatibility with different engines.
• Edit and arrange models – Transform selections and export edited models using the 3D Viewer & Editor.

How does Photo3D work?

1. Upload a source image (direct upload or public URL) up to 10 MB in JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, or AVIF format.
2. Select the AI model (Hunyuan3D-2.0 is available by default) and click "Start public queue".
3. The job runs on best-effort public GPUs; you can check the result after some time.
4. Once complete, view and download the resulting GLB model directly in the browser.

The public queue is free and requires no sign-in, but may sleep or throttle depending on demand.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Free for basic use, no account required for generation, wide range of local browser tools, supports common image input formats, outputs standard GLB format.
• Cons: Public queue processing times are unpredictable (best-effort GPUs), commercial use terms depend on account plan, only GLB output format is provided for generated 3D assets.

Pricing

Photo3D offers a free public queue for basic image-to-3D generation. Account-based workflows with saved history and credits are available for users who sign in. No specific dollar amounts are listed on the site.

FAQ

Is Photo3D free?

Yes, the public queue for image-to-3D generation is free and does not require an account. Local browser tools are also free. Account features like saved history and credits may have different terms.

What image formats can I upload?

You can upload JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, and AVIF files up to 10 MB in size. You can also provide a public image URL.

What output format does Photo3D produce?

Generated 3D models are delivered as GLB files. Local tools also support OBJ, STL, PLY, 3MF, and glTF for viewing and conversion.

Do I need to create an account?

No, for local browser tools and public queue generation you can remain anonymous. An account is needed only if you want to save generation history, manage credits, or access persistent storage.

Can I use generated 3D assets commercially?

Commercial use depends on your account plan, the terms of the AI model provider, and local laws. Review the specific terms before using outputs in products or client work.
