Hi3D 1.0 (formerly Sparc3D) is the open-source release of Hi3D's 3D generation model. It generates detailed 3D assets from images or text prompts. According to the vendor, it was trained on nearly 2 million curated 3D assets and evaluated for multi-view quality, local details and geometric usability, and validated in production workflows before release.\n\nThe open-source package provides model weights and resources for local deployment, with source code and deployment guides on GitHub. A YouTube creator reports a total size of about 7.74 GB. The vendor also offers an online version for use without local deployment.\n\nThe open release is version 1.0. Hi3D's newer version 3.0 remains closed and is offered through the hosted service. The vendor says v3.0 reaches 2048³ voxel-level geometry resolution and up to 8K textures. The hosted service uses a credit-based subscription model with a free plan, paid plans and credit packs.
