Text to Texture

Poliigon has no generation capability — it's a curated library of professionally produced textures. TexturesFast generates custom materials from text prompts, ideal for unique or niche materials not found in any library.

Style Presets

Poliigon textures are photorealistic professional scans. TexturesFast offers style presets (photoreal, stylized, handpainted, pixel art) for generating textures in varied aesthetics beyond photorealism.
