Can AI Asset Generation Be Accessed via API for User Photo-to-3D in Custom Apps?

Hi 8th Wall Support Team,

I am currently developing an interactive web AR system based on the book Expressive Iteration, which allows users to upload a photo and then generates a 3D model for them to interact with in real time (using MeshyAI + Flask at present). I noticed the new “AI Asset Generation” feature in the Studio version and I’m very interested in integrating it to simplify the workflow and improve model quality.

I have a few questions:

Is it possible to call the AI Asset Generation function programmatically from a custom front-end (e.g., using API, SDK, or other hooks), so that users can upload an image (or text) and receive a generated 3D model dynamically?

Can this new feature be used in “Editor” projects, or is it strictly limited to Studio version?

Is there a roadmap for opening API access, or supporting more automated/custom workflow integration?

If not yet available, is there any way to apply for early access or participate in a beta for such integration features?

My goal is to let users experience the “photo → 3D model → play/interact” pipeline seamlessly inside our Expressive Iteration system, possibly replacing the current third-party (MeshyAI + Flask) architecture.

This is my system flowchart

Thanks a lot for your help and looking forward to your advice!

Hi!

I’ll let the team know there’s interest in an API. At the moment Asset Lab is restricted to Studio projects.

Ok, thanks for your kind help.
