Once you've generated a design you're happy with, it goes straight into your Easel project.
Importing into your project
From the generator, select Import. The design drops into your open project, ready to position and carve.
For 3D designs, importing also brings in the height map that makes the design carvable as a relief.
Working with 2D designs
2D generations come in as vector artwork and behave like any other design in Easel:
- Move, scale, and rotate
- Combine with text, shapes, and other designs
- Adjust cut depth and settings
- Carve on any Easel plan that supports your intended carving methods
Working with 3D designs
3D generations come in as bas-relief models.
Carving a 3D design requires an Easel Pro subscription. 3D carving is a Pro feature, and that's true whether the design came from Easel Generate or anywhere else. If you don’t have an Easel Pro subscription, you can still generate 3D designs and export them — you'll just need Pro to carve them in Easel.
You can adjust the size, placement, and depth of a 3D relief the same way you would with any 3D model in Easel. Learn more about 3D carving in Easel.
Exporting your designs
You can export the designs you generate and use them outside of Easel. 3D designs export as STL files, so you can 3D print them, open them in other software, or archive them.
If you paid tokens to generate it, it's yours to keep.
Selling what you make
Designs you create with Easel Generate can be used commercially. You're free to carve them, sell the finished pieces, and sell the designs themselves.
However, AI-generated designs generally aren't eligible for copyright or trademark protection on their own, and we can't guarantee your result is unique — another user could generate something similar from a similar description.
You're also responsible for what you generate. Easel's Terms of Service prohibit using the Service in any way that infringes the copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights of Easel or a third party, and prohibit selling anything you don't have the full right to sell. That applies to generated designs the same as it does to anything else in Easel — prompting for a copyrighted character, a trademarked logo, or another artist's work is a violation of those terms.
Before you carve
A design that looks great on screen may not always carve well. A few things to check:
- Detail level. Very fine detail may be smaller than your bit can cut. Very flat designs may not read well once carved.
- Size and proportion. Confirm the design's dimensions match your material before you cut.
- Carve time. Detailed 3D reliefs can take a long time to carve. Check the estimate before you start.
- Do a test carve. For anything detailed or anything you're carving on expensive stock, a test in scrap material is worth the time.
