What CraftPBR is
CraftPBR creates tileable PBR material sets from text prompts, with reference-photo generation available on Pro. A set includes albedo, normal, roughness, and height maps; exports also include metalness and derived ambient occlusion. The browser-based generator uses WebGPU, and the site says materials can be generated in under 8 seconds. Users can adjust tiling, roughness, and normal strength, then preview materials on a sphere, cube, or cloth. Export presets are listed for Unreal, Unity, Godot, and Blender, with PNG listed as the export format. The Community library lets users browse, download, fork, and remix materials; published materials are free, remixable, and credited. Free-plan materials appear in the public library, while Pro projects can be private. The free plan includes 10 credits per month for 1K materials. Pro costs $19 a month and includes private projects, commercial licensing, reference-photo generation, and up to 8K resolution. Studio costs $39 a month; a one-time credit pack costs $9.99 USD once.
