Meshy raised nearly $400 million in a Series B round at a $1.5 billion valuation, co-led by IDG Capital, Matrix Partners China and Monolith, with existing investors Sequoia China and Source Code Capital oversubscribing their pro-rata rights. It's the largest funding round on record specifically for AI 3D generation, and puts the round in the top 1% of comparable Series B deals globally this year.
The company's growth numbers explain the check size: annual recurring revenue is growing roughly 12x year-over-year, with more than 12 million registered users and over 100 million 3D models created on the platform. AI-generated 3D assets -- for gaming, product design, film and VFX -- have moved from novelty to production tooling faster than most categories in generative AI, and Meshy has positioned itself as the default entry point for teams that need usable 3D geometry rather than just images or video.
“Capital will go toward multimodal foundation model research, algorithmic infrastructure and expanding commercial sales into global enterprise accounts.”
The investor roster is notable beyond the dollar figure: virtually the entire top tier of China's venture capital landscape participated, and the fact that every existing investor chose to increase their stake rather than simply hold is a stronger conviction signal than a new-money-only round would have been. Capital will go toward multimodal foundation model research, algorithmic infrastructure and expanding commercial sales into global enterprise accounts.
Competitively, Meshy sits in a crowded but still-forming category alongside Luma AI, Kaedim and a wave of smaller 3D-generation tools, but its user and revenue scale now put clear distance between it and most rivals. For gaming and VFX-focused investors, the read is that AI 3D generation has crossed from experimental tooling into a real budget line item inside studios -- the question going forward is whether Meshy can hold its lead as larger platforms like Adobe and Unity build competing features natively into their existing tools.
