eCommerce · Product 3D

Every product in 3D, from the photos you already have.

Shoppers who can turn a product round buy with more confidence and send less back. But a 3D model has meant a studio, a sample in the post and a bill per SKU — so most catalogues stay flat. Zetta 3D turns your product photos into light, textured 3D models in minutes, ready for your store and the marketplaces.

The catch

Why most catalogues are still flat

Everyone agrees 3D sells. Almost nobody has it on every product — because of how the models get made.

  • 01

    A model costs more than the product earns

    Studios quote from about $50 for a simple item to thousands for a detailed one — per SKU, every season.

    A textured model with PBR materials is €0.68 in credits. A whole range costs less than one studio model.

  • 02

    Weeks in a queue

    Brief the studio, ship the sample, wait for revisions. By the time the model is live, the drop is old news.

    Minutes per model, made by you, the day the product photos land.

  • 03

    Samples have to travel

    Scanning and modelling usually need the physical product on a rig or on a desk somewhere else.

    Your existing product photos are the input. One photo works; front, back and sides work better.

  • 04

    Too heavy for the product page

    Every channel caps the file — Shopify suggests about 4 MB, Amazon 5 MB, Google 15 MB — and slow models kill mobile pages.

    On a plan, set the polygon budget before you generate, so the model is made light rather than cut down after.

How it works

Photo in. Product page out.

  1. Step 1

    Drop in your product photos

    One clean photo is enough to start. Add front, back and sides for the closest match. The background is removed for you.

  2. Step 2

    Generate the model

    A textured 3D model with PBR materials — metal, leather, wood and plastic read as themselves — in minutes. On a plan, choose the polygon budget so it stays light.

  3. Step 3

    Publish where you sell

    Download a GLB for your store and marketplaces — or FBX, OBJ and STL — or send a link that opens the model in any browser.

Open one. Turn it round.

Real products, generated with Zetta 3D — the same GLB files you would upload to your store.

Where you sell

One file, every storefront

GLB is the format the big storefronts read for 3D and view-in-your-room. That is what Zetta 3D exports — light, textured, ready to upload.

  • Shopify

    Add the GLB as product media. Shoppers spin it on the product page and, on supported themes and phones, place it in their room.

    Aim for about 4 MB
  • Google Shopping

    Link the GLB in Merchant Center and your listings can show the product in 3D and in the shopper’s space.

    GLB up to 15 MB · US listings
  • Amazon

    One GLB powers View in 3D and View in Your Room on your listing.

    Brand Registry · 5 MB
  • Your own site

    Any web 3D viewer reads GLB. Or share a Zetta link that opens the model in the browser, no app needed.

Each platform reviews 3D files and sets its own limits, and they change — check the current guidance before you upload.

Beyond the model

The rest of the product page, in the same place

  • Product shots too

    Image Studio makes lifestyle scenes, backgrounds and edits from the same photos — unmetered on a plan.

  • New finishes

    Re-texture a model to try another colourway or material before you commit to a shoot.

  • Split into parts

    Separate a product into its real parts — the lid from the bottle, the strap from the bag.

  • Private until launch

    On a plan, models are private by default. Unreleased products stay unreleased.

What to know

Straight answers before you start

  • True to the photo, not to the millimetre

    Models are generated from pictures, so shape and look follow your photos — they are not CAD. For exact dimensions, start from your CAD files.

  • Fine print can soften

    Small logos, labels and text may come out less crisp than the real thing. Sharp photos and multi-view help; always check before you publish.

  • Check the size before AR

    View-in-your-room shows the model at the size in the file. Preview it on your channel before it goes live.

  • Free models are public

    Models made on a free account can be seen by anyone with the link. Use a plan for anything not yet launched.

Questions

What store teams ask us

Can I put these models on Shopify, Amazon and Google?

Yes — all three take GLB, which is what Zetta 3D exports. Each platform reviews files and has its own size limits (around 4 MB recommended on Shopify, 5 MB on Amazon, 15 MB on Google), so set the polygon budget to keep the file light and check their current guidance before you upload.

How many photos do I need?

One clear photo of the product is enough to generate a model. For the closest match — especially on bags, shoes and anything with a different back — add front, back and side photos with multi-view, which is part of every paid plan.

What does a product cost?

A textured model with PBR materials on Zetta N1 is 68 credits — €0.68 — and every plan buys credits at €0.01. A new account gets 70 credits, plus 70 more for finishing onboarding: enough for two textured models before you pay anything.

Do I own the models?

Yes. What you generate is yours, including for commercial use, and that does not change if you cancel.

We have thousands of SKUs. Can you handle a catalogue?

Plans scale to 15,000 credits a month, and credit packs top up on top of that. For a full catalogue, volume credits are priced per agreement — write to us and we will size it with you.
