Text to STL free — type it, then print it

Type what you want to print and get an STL file: this text to STL generator turns a short description of one object into a 3D model that is repaired, 100 mm on its longest side and flat on its base, ready for your slicer. You also get GLB and OBJ with colours. No account, no watermark, 3 free models a day.

No watermark, no account. 3 free models from text a day (and 5 from a photo). The AI fills in every detail you don't describe, so check the model before you print.

How text to STL works here

Your words go through two AI steps on our own graphics card. First the AI draws one object from your description: whole, centred, on a plain background. Then the 3D engine builds the full shape from that drawing, including the sides the drawing does not show. For printing it removes small loose bits, closes holes, stands the model upright with its base on the build plate and scales it to 100 mm. It takes about two to three minutes.

Not what you pictured? Add a shape, a material or a style and try again; every attempt gives a different version.

A failed attempt or a refused description does not count. No watermark on any tier. Your description and the model are deleted after 45 minutes.

How to turn text into an STL

  1. Type one object in the box above, in a few words.
  2. Wait two to three minutes while the AI draws it and builds the 3D shape.
  3. Rotate the model to check it.
  4. Download the STL and open it in your slicer.

Have a photo? Use it

A photo of the real object gives a closer match than any description. Image to STL makes the same printable file from a picture, and image to 3D model and the AI 3D model generator do the same with colours in mind. Want a model for games or AR instead of a print? Text to 3D model is the same tool from that angle. The photo box sits right under the text box above.

Common questions

Is this text to STL generator free?

Yes. Three models from text a day are free, with no account, no credits and no watermark. The free email pass gives 6 a day and a ShinobiTools pass 15.

Is the STL ready to print?

It is repaired, sized to 100 mm on its longest side and placed flat on its base, so you can drop it straight into your slicer. The page tells you when the mesh is not fully closed; your slicer can usually fix that. Scale it to the size you want in the slicer.

What should I type?

One object in a few words, ideally with a shape or a material: “a small dragon figurine”, “a round planter pot”, “a chess knight”. English works best.

Does the STL have colours?

No. STL only stores the shape, which is what a printer needs. If you want colours, download the GLB or OBJ from the same run.

How long does it take?

About two to three minutes on our graphics card, plus any queue.

Why did it refuse my description?

We don't make models of real, living people, firearms, gore or adult content. A refused description does not count towards your daily limit.

What happens to my description?

Your description and the model are deleted after 45 minutes. See privacy.
