Rodin V2 Text to 3D | AI Text-to-3D Model API

Hyper3D — Rodin v2 Text-to-3D

hyper3d/rodin-v2/text-to-3d turns a single text prompt into a fully textured 3D asset, using Hyper3D’s Rodin v2 generation pipeline. It’s designed for game props, characters, film previs, XR assets and 3D printing where you want clean topology plus usable UVs and textures straight out of the API.

Key Highlights

Pure text-to-3D – Describe what you want in natural language (shape, style, material, use case) and get a ready-to-import 3D model.
Quad or triangle meshes – Choose topology and polycount tier to match real production needs (rigging, sculpting, or in-engine use).
PBR or shaded textures – Output can target realistic PBR workflows or stylised “baked” looks.
Engine & DCC friendly – Export directly as glb / fbx / obj / stl / usdz and drop into Unity, Unreal, Blender, Maya, etc.
Pose & scale control – Optional T/A-pose for characters and bounding-box constraints for consistent size across assets.

Parameters

Core input

prompt* A detailed description of the desired 3D object. Example: “A low-poly stylised treasure chest with gold trims, slightly worn wood, game-ready, PBR, suitable for top-down RPG.”

Look & topology

material
PBR – Physically based textures (albedo, normal, roughness, metallic, etc.)
Shaded – Baked / stylised look.
All – Export both PBR and shaded versions.
quality_and_mesh Controls topology type and approximate face count:
4k_Quad, 8k_Quad, 18k_Quad, 50k_Quad – Quad meshes at increasing resolution Best for sculpting, retopo, rigging, hero characters.
2K_Triangle, 20K_Triangle, 250K_Triangle, 500K_Triangle – Triangle meshes at increasing density Good for direct engine use or high-detail props.
geometry_file_format Choose preferred output format:
glb – Recommended default; compact, widely supported (web + engines).
fbx – Common for DCC tools and game pipelines.
obj – Simple, legacy-friendly geometry + MTL.
stl – 3D printing workflows.
usdz – AR-friendly on Apple platforms.
addons
HighPack – Optional enhancement pack for higher mesh + texture fidelity (heavier but closer to final production quality).

Advanced control

bbox_condition Optional bounding-box constraint (ControlNet-style) to cap the maximum size of the generated model (width/height/depth). Useful when you need scale consistency across a library of assets.
TAPose When enabled, enforces a T/A-pose for humanoid characters, simplifying rigging and animation.
use_original_alpha Reserved for workflows that process existing images; can usually be left off for pure text-to-3D on this endpoint.
preview_render If enabled, adds a quick preview render of the generated model (e.g. turntable) to the download bundle so you can inspect it without opening a 3D app.
seed Random seed for reproducibility:
Leave empty / default to get a new variation each run.
Set to a fixed integer to regenerate a similar model for iteration.

Pricing

Simple, flat pricing:

$0.40 per run

Each run generates one 3D asset (mesh + textures) with your chosen quality and format. Change any parameters (prompt, mesh tier, format, etc.) → counts as a new run at $0.40.

How to Use

Write a clear prompt describing:

Overall type of object (character, prop, vehicle, environment piece, etc.)
Style (realistic, stylised, low-poly, hand-painted, sci-fi, medieval, etc.)
Material hints (metal, leather, plastic, stone…) and intended usage (game-ready, film concept, 3D print).

Choose material (usually PBR for pipelines, Shaded for stylised/baked).
Set quality_and_mesh:

Start with 8k_Quad or 20K_Triangle for iteration.
Move up to 18k_Quad, 50k_Quad, 250K_Triangle + HighPack for final assets.

Pick geometry_file_format that fits your toolchain (e.g. glb or fbx).
(Optional)

Add a bbox_condition for consistent scale.
Enable TAPose for rig-ready characters.
Toggle preview_render if you want a quick turntable image in the output.

Set a seed if you want reproducible results, otherwise leave blank.
Click Run – after generation, download the archive and import the asset into your DCC, engine, or printing workflow.

Prompt & Workflow Tips

Mention poly style (“low-poly”, “mid-poly”, “realistic high-poly”) in the prompt to better match your chosen mesh tier.
For game assets, specify camera distance or usage (“seen from top-down”, “first-person view weapon”) to help the model prioritise detail.
Iterate fast at medium quality, then lock a seed and re-run at higher tiers + HighPack for the final deliverable.

Rodin v2 Text To 3d API — Frequently asked questions

What is the Rodin v2 Text To 3d API?

Rodin v2 Text To 3d is a Hyper3d model for 3D asset generation, exposed as a REST API on WaveSpeedAI. Hyper3D Rodin v2 generates production-ready 3D assets from text prompts, delivering clean meshes with UVs and textures. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing. You can call it programmatically or try it from the playground above.

How do I call the Rodin v2 Text To 3d API?

POST your input parameters to the model's REST endpoint (shown in the API tab of this playground) with your WaveSpeedAI API key in the Authorization header. Submission returns a prediction ID; poll the prediction endpoint until status flips to "completed", then read the output URL from the result. The playground generates a ready-to-paste code sample in Python, JavaScript, or cURL for whatever inputs you've set. Full request/response shape is documented at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/hyper3d/hyper3d-rodin-v2-text-to-3d.

How much does Rodin v2 Text To 3d cost per run?

Rodin v2 Text To 3d starts at $0.40 per run. That figure is the base price — the final charge scales with the parameters you set in the form (output size, length, count, references, or whatever knobs this model exposes), so a higher-quality or larger output costs more than a minimal one. The exact cost for your current input is shown live next to the Generate button before you submit, and the actual per-call charge is recorded on the prediction afterwards.

What inputs does Rodin v2 Text To 3d accept?

Key inputs: `prompt`, `seed`, `addons`, `bbox_condition`, `geometry_file_format`, `material`. The full JSON schema (types, defaults, allowed values) is rendered above the Generate button and mirrored in the API reference at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/hyper3d/hyper3d-rodin-v2-text-to-3d.

How long does Rodin v2 Text To 3d take to generate?

Average end-to-end generation time on WaveSpeedAI is around 404 seconds per request — measured across recent runs. Queue time scales with global demand; live status is visible in the prediction record.

Can I use Rodin v2 Text To 3d outputs commercially?

Commercial usage rights depend on the model's license, set by its provider (Hyper3d). The license summary appears on the model card above; see WaveSpeedAI's Terms of Service for platform-level conditions.
