AI t-shirt design generator

3DMockups is an AI t-shirt design generator that turns a short description into print-ready artwork, puts it on a real 3D t-shirt and lets you sell it in your own store. Describe the idea in the design studio or in ChatGPT or Claude, pick the version you like, and publish it. We print and ship each order.

From a sentence to a shirt people can buy

No design skills and no files to prepare. Three steps.

  1. Two Coffee Club graphics generated from one message, on a transparent background, ready to print
    Step 1

    Describe it

    Write what you want: the subject, the style, the words on it. You get artwork on a transparent background, ready to print.

  2. Real 3D product photos of the Coffee Club design on a white oversized tee
    Step 2

    See it on a real 3D tee

    The design goes on the actual garment we print. Turn it, change the color, check the back.

  3. The Coffee Club Tee product page, live in a store at $34 with sizes and Add to Cart
    Step 3

    Sell it

    Publish to your store with 3D product photos. When someone buys, we print and ship it.

T-shirt design prompts that work

Be specific about the subject, the style and any text. Copy one of these to start.

  • PromptA retro coffee club badge with a steaming cup, 70s colors, the words "Coffee Club"
  • PromptMinimal line art of a mountain range with "Est. 2026" underneath, one color
  • PromptA cartoon cat in a space helmet, bold outlines, flat colors, sticker style
  • PromptVarsity letters reading "Night Shift" with a crescent moon and stars
  • PromptA distressed vintage surf logo with a wave and palm trees, sunset orange
  • PromptA clean all-over pattern of small lemons on cream, for a full-print tee

Tip: ask for "transparent background" and name the colors. For all-over prints, ask for a seamless pattern.

More than an image generator

Most t-shirt generators stop at a picture. Here the design becomes a product: it is placed on the garment, rendered in 3D for your listing and sent to production when it sells.

  • Print all-over, or only on the front, the back or the chest
  • Tees, oversized tees, hoodies, sweatshirts, jerseys, shorts, socks and more
  • Upload your own art and mix it with AI elements
  • Halftone and threshold tools to prepare art for print
  • Publish to your store, or to Shopify and WooCommerce on paid plans

Is the AI t-shirt design generator free?

You can create an account and start for free. Generating designs with AI uses credits; paid plans include 400 to 2,000 AI credits a month, starting at $19.99. Uploading your own art does not use credits.

Can I sell the designs I make?

Yes. That is the point: publish them to your store and we print each order. Templates from the studio library are not exclusive, so customize them before you sell. Details are in our content license.

Will the printed shirt look like the preview?

The preview is a 3D model of the exact garment we print, with your design placed where it will be printed. Our print quality promise covers misprints.

Can I use ChatGPT or Claude to design shirts?

Yes. 3DMockups is available in ChatGPT, and you can add it to Claude as a custom connector. The same server works in Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex, Gemini and Le Chat. Your assistant asks before it publishes anything.

What garments can I put the design on?

T-shirts, oversized tees, hoodies, sweatshirts, button shirts, baseball, football and basketball jerseys, crop tops, shorts, wide-leg pants, socks and a beach towel. The free plan includes the Oversized Tee.
