Do I need to install anything?

No. Mixos runs entirely in your browser — sign in with a free account and you are animating, modeling or texturing. No download, no drivers, no license server. (If you want a native app anyway, there's a free desktop version for Mac and Windows too.)

Can I make 3D animation in my browser?

Yes. Mixos Studio keyframes objects, cameras, lights and materials on a timeline, retimes them in a dopesheet and shapes the motion in a curve editor. It auto-rigs a T-posed humanoid in one step and retargets any of 2,500+ motion-capture clips onto it, then path-traces the result — in a browser tab, with nothing installed. Animating is free; exporting the animated scene as GLB or glTF, or saving a render, needs a paid plan.

Is Mixos a free alternative to Substance Painter?

For a lot of work, yes. Mixos Paint is a browser-based 3D texture painter in the Substance Painter mould: layered PBR materials with masks, smart materials, mesh-map baking (AO, curvature, thickness, normals, high-to-low) and export presets for Unreal, Unity, Godot, Blender and Cinema 4D. Painting is free; exporting maps needs a paid plan. Substance still goes deeper on procedural generators, 8K export and fully offline work.

Which 3D apps and engines does it work with?

Any of them. You export standard PBR map sets — base color, normal, roughness, metallic, height, and opacity — plus a glTF (.glb) and baked maps like AO and curvature, so they drop straight into Cinema 4D, Blender, Unreal, Unity, Godot, Houdini, Maya, and any renderer. The free desktop app goes further with a Live Link that streams your maps into Blender, Cinema 4D, or Unreal while you paint — no export loop at all.

Can I bring my own meshes and images?

Yes. Import your mesh (GLB, glTF, FBX, OBJ) to animate it in Studio or paint and bake on it in Paint — rigged GLB and FBX characters arrive with their clips as editable keyframes — and bring photos or scans as material sources.

Yes — modeling, animating, sculpting and painting are free with a free account, which also includes trial credits for the AI generators. Paid plans unlock export, the project library, 2K material generation, and a refreshing monthly pool of AI credits.

You direct the shot.
Mixos AI films it.

Mixos AI builds what you describe as an editable 3D scene, then turns your shot into a photoreal video that keeps your camera move. Drag the line: on the left, the 3D animation; on the right, the video made from it.

Full control, when you want it

Start in one app, finish in another.

Studio models and stages the shot, Paint puts materials on the surface, Mold sculpts organic form, Auto textures a model from one prompt, and Logo turns a flat mark into 3D. Studio, Paint and Mold hand work back and forth with textures intact; Auto results open in Paint as editable layers, and logos open in Studio as scenes.

Beta

Chat-first creative agent

Describe a scene, a product shot or a textured model in plain words and Mixos AI builds it in the real apps — then open any result in its app to tweak it by hand.

Studio

Scene assembly, modeling & animation

Assemble a shot: a real scene graph with parenting and transforms, polygon modeling on a half-edge core, and keyframe animation on a timeline — with an assistant that can drive all of it.

Open Studio Learn more

Paint

3D texture painting

Import a mesh and paint, layer, and mask production PBR materials directly on it — then export clean map sets for any engine.

Open Paint Learn more

Mold

3D sculpting

Sculpt organic form directly on the GPU — subdivide, push, pull, and smooth clay with pressure brushes, then hand the mesh straight to Paint to texture. Pull it back later to reshape and the texture stays put.

Auto

AI auto-texture

Describe a look in one prompt and Auto textures your whole model — editable PBR maps, projected over the real geometry.

Logo

AI 3D logo design

Turn a flat mark — your own, or one described to an AI — into real extruded 3D layers, then give it metal, glass or neon, light it, and render a still or a turntable. No CAD, nothing to install.
