Text prompt to in-game 3D asset in 5 minutes

Atlas takes a text prompt and delivers a moderated, performance-optimized 3D asset ready to drop into your game engine in 5–10 minutes.

Four nodes, five to ten minutes

01

Write your prompt

Describe the asset in plain language — “rusted iron lamppost, Victorian style” or “low-poly desert palm”.

02

Auto-moderation pass

Atlas’s text-to-3D model reads style cues and silhouette intent.

03

Performance optimization

Generated meshes are checked against your project’s style guide and content policy. Off-brand or unsafe outputs get flagged.

04

Engine drop-in

Mesh decimation, UV unwrap, and texture compression run automatically. You set the poly budget — mobile, console, or PC — Atlas hits it.

Common questions

What 3D format does Atlas output?
Export GLB. Drag straight into Unity, UE5, Godot, or a WebGL scene. Materials and basic colliders included.
Are these assets production-final?
We focus on GLB because it’s the most universally engine-supported binary 3D format — works in Unity, UE5, Godot, Roblox, WebGL and most modern engines.
Can I control the art style?
Atlas is built for prototyping speed, art-direction iteration, and player-driven content where “good enough fast” beats “perfect slow”.
What performance budget can I target?
Mobile (~5k tris, 1K textures), console (~20k tris, 2K textures), or PC (~50k tris, 2K textures). Atlas optimizes mesh and textures to hit whichever budget you set.
How does the 5-minute number break down?
Generation runs in ~60 seconds, moderation + optimization add 2–3 minutes, and engine-ready export is instant.
Can players generate assets at runtime?
Yes — Atlas exposes the pipeline via API. Parallel uses it to let players generate assets at runtime, with moderation and style-matching automatic.
