Description
Meshmixer is an exceptional program designed for manipulating triangle meshes in various ways. Whether your goal is to refine a 3D scan, prepare for 3D printing, or create a component that integrates seamlessly with another object, Meshmixer offers the tools you need. It serves as a versatile "Swiss Army Knife" for all things related to 3D meshes. The software features drag-and-drop mesh mixing capabilities, along with 3D sculpting and surface stamping options. It also boasts a powerful Convert-to-Solid function, ideal for 3D printing projects, and allows for the creation of intricate 3D patterns and lattices. Users can easily hollow objects while incorporating escape holes and generate branching support structures tailored for 3D printing needs. Additionally, Meshmixer optimizes print bed orientation and layout, making the printing process more efficient. Advanced selection features such as brushing, surface-lasso, and constraints further enhance usability, while remeshing and mesh simplification tools provide great flexibility. Mesh smoothing, free-form deformations, and various repair functions—like hole filling, bridging, and boundary zippering—ensure high-quality results. Plane cuts, mirroring, and Boolean operations facilitate more complex designs, while extrusions and offset surfaces enable further creativity. The program also supports interior tubes and channels, ensuring precise 3D positioning with the use of pivots. Automatic surface alignment and accurate 3D measurements are additional highlights, along with stability and thickness analysis to guarantee structural integrity in your designs. Meshmixer truly empowers users to bring their 3D visions to life with ease and precision.
Description
OwlCAD is a browser-based parametric CAD editor aimed squarely at 3D printing, giving hobbyists and makers real engineering tools without installing software or buying a professional license.
Designs are driven by dimensions you can revisit at any time; edit a number and the part updates. Solids combine cleanly, fit presets (press, slip, loose) account for FDM tolerances, and a print check points out overhangs, walls too thin to print and open meshes before anything reaches your slicer. Hollowing, lay-flat orientation and print weight and cost estimates help you prepare the part itself.
The toolset covers constrained 2D sketches, fillets and chamfers on individual edges, sweeps, lofts, patterns, datum planes, measurement, and assemblies with mates, an exploded view and a parts list. More than 30 generators build gears, threads, enclosures, hinges and Gridfinity storage. Bring in STEP, STL, 3MF, OBJ or OpenSCAD files; send out STEP, STL, 3MF, OBJ, GLB, DXF or SVG.
Your work autosaves locally and syncs to cloud projects with version history and share links. You can also publish a customizable model that others adjust and download. Whatever you design is yours to sell, prints and files alike, on every plan.
The editor is free. A Pro subscription adds AI that drafts either an editable parametric model or a sculpted mesh from a prompt, AI-assisted edits, and an MCP server so agents such as Claude Code or Cursor can model on your account. Pro users can bring their own provider key and skip credits. A desktop app is available too.
Open it and start designing; signing up is optional.

OwlCAD is free to use. The Free plan has no time limit and includes the full parametric editor, import and export in every supported format, the customizer, cloud projects with version history and sharing, and the printability tools. You keep full commercial rights to anything you design, on every plan.
Pro is $12 per month, or $120 per year (two months free). It adds AI generation across several models, Modify-with-AI, AI-assisted customizing, and MCP access for AI agents. Pro includes 20 AI credits a month, which reset monthly. Light parametric generations cost one credit, and detailed mesh models cost a few. One-time credit top-up packs never expire. Pro users can also bring their own AI provider key and generate without spending credits. Payments are handled by Stripe, and you can cancel anytime with no contract.
Classroom features for K-12 schools are free. Districts can add a pooled AI credit budget for teachers; contact OwlCAD for details.
