Meshy

Meshy is an AI 3D generation company founded by Ethan Yuanming Hu (胡渊鸣), who previously created the Taichi programming language for high-performance graphics computing . The company has positioned itself as the pioneer of the 3D generative AI赛道 since launching the first publicly accessible 3D generative AI product in 2023 .

Meshy's core product converts text or images into production-ready 3D models in minutes—a process that traditionally took professional artists days or weeks using tools like Blender or Maya . In June 2026, it released Meshy 3D Agent, billed as the world's first 3D creation AI agent capable of handling the full workflow from concept exploration to model export through multi-turn conversation .

The company has demonstrated strong commercial traction: over 12 million registered users, more than 100 million models generated, and ARR growth of roughly 12x in the past year with sustained 20–30% monthly growth over two years . Its customer base spans major game studios (Nexon, NetEase, 37 Interactive Entertainment), 3D printing leaders (Bambu Lab, Creality, Anycubic), and half of the world's top ten tech companies by market cap .

In July 2026, Meshy closed a nearly $400 million Series B at a post-money valuation exceeding 10 billion RMB, the largest single round in AI 3D to date . The round was led by IDG Capital, Matrix Partners China, and Monolith, with Source Code Capital—an early backer from the 2021 Series A—continuing to double down . Monolith's Xi Cao (曹曦), who first invested in Meshy while at Sequoia, also participated .

Looking ahead, Meshy is expanding from "AI for 3D" toward "AI for Fun"—developing real-time interactive multimodal content experiences, including an AI game demo called *Black Box: Infinite Construction* unveiled at GDC 2026 .
