Access guide
Use trellis free for a simple 3D model start
Trellis free access gives you a low-friction way to test an AI 3D workflow before you commit to a larger project. Start with a focused idea, review the result, and decide whether the general route better fits your next iteration.

image to 3d
Turn a reference image into a starting model when describing the object in words is not enough.
Before you begin
A short prompt and a clear goal are enough for an initial test; the optional details help you judge the result more consistently.
Required
A basic visual direction
Mention style, material, shape, or intended presentation.
Required
A reason to evaluate the result
For example, concept review, reference creation, or an early asset draft.
Optional
A reference image
Useful when proportions, silhouette, or surface details matter.
Optional
A preferred output refinement
Add low-poly, smooth, stylized, or another clear constraint when relevant.
How to start
Keep the first attempt narrow. One useful object with a few visible traits is easier to assess than a crowded scene.
Write the object
State what should exist in the scene, such as a desk lamp, fantasy shield, chair, or small architectural prop.
Add defining traits
Describe the silhouette, materials, color direction, and style you want the generated model to communicate.
Review the result
Check the shape and overall usefulness first, then revise the prompt with one or two targeted changes instead of rewriting everything.
This entry point vs the general one
The free route is best treated as a focused first pass. The general Trellis route is the broader place to continue when you need a more involved workflow.

The 3 things only this entry point does
This route concentrates the experience around a few practical actions rather than presenting every possible production choice at once.
- to begin an initial model attempt
- 1 prompt
- to inspect as an early asset concept
- 3D output
- to refine, replace, or continue the idea
- 1 next step
Limits
Free access is useful for evaluation, but it should not be mistaken for a guarantee of production-ready geometry or unlimited iteration.
Test the idea before the full workflow
Use the free entry point to learn whether your prompt produces the right subject, silhouette, and visual direction. Results can vary with wording, complexity, and the amount of detail you request, so treat the first output as a starting point rather than a final asset. If the result needs extensive cleanup, precise topology, or a more controlled pipeline, move to the general route or a dedicated refinement workflow.
- Start with one subject instead of a full scene.
- Judge the main form before fine surface details.
- Keep a successful prompt so you can revise it deliberately.
FAQ
A direct answer to the access question behind this page.
The free entry point is designed to let you begin without a paid commitment. Availability, usage limits, and the exact scope of access can depend on the route you use, so check the current tool flow when you start.
Yes, this route is intended for an initial free test of the 3D generation workflow. Begin with a simple prompt and use the result to decide whether the broader Trellis experience suits your project.
Not necessarily. A free starting route may focus on basic generation and evaluation, while advanced controls, longer workflows, or additional handling can differ by entry point.
Not always. Treat an early result as a concept or starting asset, then inspect its shape, materials, and suitability for your intended use before relying on it in a finished project.
