# About 404—GEN

**404—GEN** is a decentralised, AI-powered toolset engineered to generate production-ready 3D Meshes and 3D Gaussian Splats (3DGS).

At its core, **404—GEN** operates on [**Bittensor**](https://docs.bittensor.com/), a decentralised AI network where global participants compete and are rewarded for advancing open-source, state-of-the-art (SOTA) 3D generation models. By leveraging this collaborative machine learning ecosystem, the asset generation quality of **404—GEN** naturally evolves and improves alongside rapid industry advancements.

The **404—GEN** is accessible across multiple workflows and is completely free to use via our [**Blender Add-on**](https://404gen.gumroad.com/l/blender), [**Unity Plugin**](https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/generative-ai/404-gen-3d-generator-311107), [**Discord Bot**](https://discord.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=1276096112280866858), and native [**API Integration**](https://github.com/404-Repo/three-gen-subnet/blob/main/neurons/mocks/mock_client.py).\ <br>
