Make an AI 3D Model Printable
Models from Meshy, Tripo, Rodin or Hunyuan look fine on screen but are rarely solids: overlapping shells, self-intersections, holes and flipped faces that a slicer reports as hundreds of errors. Upload the GLB, OBJ or STL and get one closed, watertight shell, with a before-and-after report.

About
Text-to-3D and image-to-3D generators produce models that look right and print wrong. Meshy itself sells a printability check for exactly this, looking for open surfaces, holes, non-manifold edges and degenerate faces, and charges 10 credits to repair them; on top of that, generated parts often overlap and pass through each other. A slicer shows such a model as hundreds of errors, or prints it with missing walls. This tool rebuilds such a model as one closed solid. Upload the GLB, OBJ or STL from Meshy, Tripo, Rodin, Hunyuan3D or any other generator and download an STL that every slicer reads cleanly.
Patching the mesh triangle by triangle cannot fix intersecting parts, so the model is rebuilt instead. The inside is decided by counting how often rays from three directions cross the surface, which stays correct where shells overlap or a few triangles are missing, and a new surface is built on a fine grid around that inside: a single closed, manifold shell by construction. That surface is then snapped back onto the original wherever the two are within half a grid step and face the same way, so the sculpted detail is kept, and finally simplified within a fraction of a grid step.
The report compares before and after: watertight or not, number of shells, open edges, self-intersections, flipped faces and triangles, plus the average and largest change from the original surface in millimetres. Small floating specks under 0.2 percent of the main body are removed unless you ask to keep them. AI models usually come in metres and one or two units tall, so you can set the print height and the file is scaled before it is rebuilt.
The conversion of GLB, OBJ, PLY and 3MF to triangles happens in your browser, so textures never leave your device; only the geometry is uploaded, processed on our server and deleted after your download. Colours are not part of an STL: keep the GLB for rendering and use this file to print. The 3D view and report are free; the download uses STL Repair's daily free use, then a credit pack, a 24-hour pass or a subscription shared with the other 3D tools.
