February 2026

Feb 28

Feb 25

  • Added image_enhancement parameter to the Image to 3D and Multi-Image to 3D APIs for users who want to opt out of input image optimization and preserve the exact appearance of their input. Only supported for meshy-6 and latest. Defaults to true.

Feb 20

  • Added model_type parameter to the Text to 3D Preview API for generating low-poly meshes optimized for cleaner polygons.

January 2026

Jan 27

  • Added detailed Failure Modes documentation for all API endpoints, including common HTTP error codes (400, 401, 402, 404, 422, 429) and task failure reasons. This helps developers better understand and handle API errors.

Jan 26

  • The Multi-Image to 3D API now supports Meshy-6 for full mesh generation. The ai_model parameter now accepts meshy-6 and latest resolves to Meshy 6.

Jan 22

  • Deprecated art_style for the Text to 3D Preview API (Meshy-6). The parameter was designed for legacy models (Meshy-4 / Meshy-5) and will be removed in a future release.
  • Deprecated enable_pbr for the Text to 3D and Image to 3D APIs when ai_model is meshy-4. This parameter will be removed in a future release.
  • Updated the default value of should_remesh parameter for Meshy-6 in the Text to 3D and Image to 3D APIs. The parameter now defaults to false for meshy-6, and true for other models if not specified.

Jan 19

Jan 12

  • Added a new model_type parameter to the Image to 3D API for generating low-poly meshes optimized for cleaner polygons.

December 2025

Dec 31

  • Launched the API Playground, a dedicated space for developers to explore API parameters and test requests directly on the Meshy website.
  • Introduced the Text to Image API and Image to Image API, enabling AI-powered image generation from text prompts and image editing from reference images. Both APIs support the nano-banana and nano-banana-pro models, with optional multi-view generation.

Dec 22

  • The video_url field in the Text to 3D API response is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

Dec 04

  • Added a new pose_mode parameter to the Text to 3D Preview, Image to 3D, and Multi-Image to 3D APIs. This parameter accepts a-pose, t-pose, or an empty string (default). The is_a_t_pose parameter is now deprecated in favor of pose_mode.

November 2025

Nov 24

  • The Image to 3D and Multi-Image to 3D APIs add an optional save_pre_remeshed_model parameter and expose model_urls.pre_remeshed_glb when a pre-remesh backup is requested.

Nov 06

  • The Text to 3D Refine API now supports ai_model = latest, which resolves to Meshy 6 Preview.
  • The Image to 3D API now defaults to Meshy-6-preview texturing when ai_model = latest and should_texture = true.
  • The Multi-Image to 3D API now supports ai_model = latest, running Meshy-6-preview for texturing by default while mesh generation remains Meshy-5.
  • The Retexture API adds a latest option for ai_model (Meshy-6-preview) and now defaults to it when omitted.

Nov 04

  • The Remesh API now preserves textures for uploaded models.
  • The Retexture API now preserves textures for uploaded models when the enable_original_uv option is enabled.

October 2025

Oct 28

  • Added the x-api-version response header to indicate the current API server version.

Oct 20

  • Added an optional convert_format_only boolean parameter to the Remesh API to support converting the format of the input model file only.
  • Added rigged_character_glb_url to the response of The Rigging Task Object.

Oct 01

  • Remove text-to-voxel APIs

September 2025

Sep 23

  • Added a latest option for ai_model in the Text to 3D API to use Meshy 6 Preview.
  • Temporary 50% discount in place for Meshy-6-preview generation tasks to 10 credits that will last until Sep 30, 2025. After the discount period, the cost of Meshy-6-preview tasks will return to the normal 20 credits.
