Moonshot AI announced on X on 10/30 that Kimi has launched 3D Make, stating that Kimi can connect to tools such as Blender and CAD for modeling, scene building, and game creation. It is now available on the Kimi web version and Kimi Work. According to the feature description in the Kimi Help Center: 3D Make is powered by the Kimi K3.1 Pro model. By describing your needs in natural language or uploading sketches / reference images, you can generate three types of results—3D web pages and mini-games (with online preview and sharing), 3D models (with preview and editing capabilities), and 3D model files for printing. It supports multi-turn conversational modifications, one-click Remix of officially curated templates (reusing the complete prompts behind the templates), and calling 3D generation tools such as Tripo via the plugin panel. You can export model files, videos, or Live Photos, or generate public sharing links.

Reasoning
- Domestic general-purpose assistants have made "generating 3D assets" a standalone entry point: without needing to know modeling software or write code, users can go from a single sentence to rotatable previews and exportable 3D works entirely within Kimi. This lowers the barrier for individual users creating product showcases, mini-game prototypes, figurines / printed models.
- The Help Center is relatively restrained in its wording: models displayed on web pages do not necessarily equate to standalone model files; "3D printing" only generates files prepared for printing and does not connect to or control printers. Dimensions, wall thickness, and supports still need to be checked manually in Blender and slicing software.
Usage
- Open kimi.com/en/make3d in a browser, or click "3D Make" below the input box / in the left sidebar on the Kimi homepage. On mobile, access it via the Kimi App. First select the creation type (3D Web / 3D Modeling / 3D Printing), then describe your requirements or upload a sketch. Generation and each modification consume Kimi's unified usage quota, which can be viewed under "Me → Settings → Subscription".
Risks
- The X post mentions "connecting to tools such as Blender and CAD," but the Help Center only refers to plugin panels (such as Tripo) and checking in Blender after export. It has not been verified which specific software can be directly connected for editing.
- The Help Center does not specify export formats or the quota consumption per generation; generating complex works takes several minutes (according to official documentation).
- Announced on 10/30, this falls outside the current 24-hour window and is considered a recent development within the last 3 days.
