CAD/3D Design

Design 3D models — and bring them to life.

A Shapr3D-style CAD modeler and a rigging + animation studio in one Windows app. AI generation built in. Export a game-ready GLB for Blender, Unity, or the web.

About RigFlow

Design 3D models — and bring them to life

RigFlow is a Windows desktop app (built on Electron) that takes a 3D idea all the way to a finished, animated asset. Launch it and pick your studio — whatever you create in one carries straight into the other, so there's no exporting, converting, or re-importing in the middle.

CAD Modeler — build and texture

A Shapr3D-style modeler made for fast, precise work:

  • Sketch, extrude, and combine solids into the shape you want.
  • Paint and texture every surface.
  • Generate with AI — turn text or an image into a model with Meshy, or create precise parametric builds with DeepSeek.
  • Pull in free, open-source assets to start from something instead of a blank canvas.
  • Trim and cut meshes into clean, separate parts.

Rigging Studio — rig and animate

When your model is ready, move it next door:

  • Rig with joints to define how it bends and moves.
  • Keyframe and play back animations right in the app.

Export once, use everywhere

Everything you make exports as a single textured, rigged, animated GLB — drop it straight into Blender, Unity, or the web.

Always up to date

RigFlow self-updates from GitHub, so new versions install themselves. You're always on the latest without lifting a finger.

Features

Two studios, one pipeline

Model in the CAD Modeler, rig and animate next door — your work flows between them with no exporting in between.

Shapr3D-style modeling

Sketch, extrude, and combine solids, then paint and texture every surface.

AI model generation

Turn text or an image into a model with Meshy, or build precise parametric shapes with DeepSeek.

Open-source assets

Pull in free assets and trim or cut meshes into clean, separate parts.

Rigging & animation

Add joints, then keyframe and play back animations in-app.

Game- & web-ready export

Export a single textured, rigged, animated GLB for Blender, Unity, or the web.

Self-updating

Frequently asked questions

What is RigFlow?

A Windows desktop app that combines a CAD modeler and a rigging/animation studio, so you can design a 3D model and animate it in one place, then export it.

Do I need 3D experience to start?

No. The CAD Modeler is a Shapr3D-style tool that's approachable for beginners, and built-in AI generation (from text or an image) gives you a running start.

What's the AI generation?

Meshy powers text- and image-to-3D; DeepSeek drives precise parametric builds — both from inside RigFlow.

What does it export?

A textured, rigged, animated GLB — the standard glTF binary that opens in Blender, Unity, and on the web.

What platform does it run on?

Windows (it's built on Electron).

How are updates delivered?

RigFlow self-updates from GitHub, so new versions install themselves.
