Hi everyone!
I want to share a free online tool I’ve been working on that might massively speed up your texturing workflows.
If you have a plain 2D photo or diffuse texture and need a complete PBR material, this tool uses AI to instantly generate the full suite of textures you need.
Key Features:
- Any Image to Full PBR: Simply upload any ordinary image, and the AI will automatically generate a complete set of PBR maps, including Normal, Ambient Occlusion, Displacement (Height), and Roughness maps.
- AI-Powered Generation: Leverage AI algorithms to extract highly accurate depth, surface details, and lighting information directly from flat 2D images.
- Real-time 3D Preview: Tweak the generation settings and instantly see your full PBR material applied to a 3D model right in your browser.
- 100% Local & Private: All the generation runs entirely on your local GPU. No images are uploaded to any server, making it fast and perfectly safe for commercial or NDA work.
- Seamless Textures: It also includes a handy tool to make your generated textures seamlessly tileable.

Whether you are creating assets for Unity, Unreal Engine, Godot, or doing look-dev in Blender, this is a super quick way to get full PBR materials out of standard photos.
It is completely free to use without signing up. I’d love to hear your feedback or any feature requests you might have!

Hi there,
I was looking through the source code of this and have a few questions:
- Was AI used to help with the creation of this tool, I have nothing against using AI to generate it, but with the rise of AI generated code, it is nice to know
- I was looking in
index.html when I cam across this part:
<!--
1. Go to Google AdSense (https://adsense.google.com/)
2. Get your verification code (starts with <script async src="...>)
3. Paste it here
4. Important: For an interactive web app like this, Auto Ads might be intrusive.
Consider using fixed Display Units.

From what I can see this appears to be related to Google AdSense, does this mean you are looking to include adverts in the future?
Hi there,
Thank you for your message and checking through our source code! Let me clarify your concerns.
The commented Google AdSense code you found isn’t for ads—it’s just a reference template for Google page visit analytics to track user page browsing records. We have no intention of adding any advertisements to this tool going forward.
Regarding credits and fees: All non-AI functions stay completely free forever. AI features cost credits: new users receive 10 free credits upon login, and 5 more free credits are provided every single day. Light daily use won’t require any payment at all. Subscriptions are only for users who need advanced image generation models or heavy usage volume.
We used AI as a coding aid during development while writing most core functions manually.
Sorry for any confusion this code snippet brought you, and we really appreciate your support!

Thanks for clarifying, that all makes sense.
