What is OwlCAD AI 3D Generator?

OwlCAD's AI 3D Generator turns a text prompt or an image into a model inside OwlCAD, a browser-based parametric CAD tool. Its parametric mode does not return a mesh: it returns the shapes, cuts and transforms as ordinary editable nodes. Ask for a 30 mm plate with two M4 holes 20 mm apart and both 30 and 20 stay live numbers, so a hole that prints too tight is a value you change and reprint. A sculpted-mesh mode covers organic shapes that only have to look right.

The example gallery shows real outputs, including a planetary gear set, a Gridfinity bin, a print-in-place 608 bearing, fan rotors, a duct transition and a name keychain, made with models such as Gemini 3.6 Flash, GPT-5.6 Sol and Claude Opus 4.8. You can also refine a part with Modify-with-AI, and connect your own AI agent over MCP.

AI generation is part of OwlCAD Pro, at $12 a month or $120 a year (two months free), with about 20 AI generations a month. Credits reset monthly, top-up packs never expire, and with your own provider API key generations use no credits. The editor and its export to STL and 3MF are free, but the free plan has no AI credits. Commercial rights are included on every plan.
