Our review

Hunyuan3D is Tencent's open-source 3D generation model (2.0 series) that produces high-quality 3D assets from text, images or sketches; it launched globally in November 2025 as the 'Hunyuan 3D creation engine' for creators.

The model weights are open for local deployment, and Tencent Cloud offers a per-request API (~$0.02-0.16/request, image-to-3D, multiview-to-3D, 4K textures). Compared with Meshy and Tripo, its edge is open weights plus Tencent Cloud hosting — a fit for teams that want to self-host or are already in the Tencent cloud.
