What a model costs in credits
Meshy 6: 20 credits untextured; 30 with 2K/4K texture; 35 with 8K texture (text- or image-to-3D). Retexture 10–15. (Meshy Help Center)
Cost per model (derived)
| Plan | Credits | Untextured Meshy 6 (20 cr) | Textured 2K/4K (30 cr) | Textured 8K (35 cr) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pro – $20 | 1,000 | ≈50 → $0.40 | ≈33 → $0.60 | ≈28 → $0.70 |
| $40 tier | 3,000 | ≈150 → $0.27 | ≈100 → $0.40 | ≈85 → $0.47 |
Our arithmetic from Meshy’s own credit table, ignoring retries. Meshy’s headline “up to 100 assets” on Pro implies ~10 credits per asset, i.e. cheaper/lighter tasks – a fully textured Meshy 6 model costs more. Free plan: 100 credits ≈ 3 textured Meshy 6 models a month; free outputs are CC BY 4.0. Studio ($70 card, 5,500 shared credits) and Ultra (8,000 credits) prices should be confirmed on the official page.
