InstaMAT Studio is a holistic content-creation platform that unifies workflows for 3D: from designing generative materials to scalable asset texturing and CI/CD pipelines.
Node-Based Workflows
Design generative materials and powerful pipelines with a visual graph editor.
Introducing the Element Graph
Create dazzling procedural assets with materials, geometry, and point clouds. Build workflows where appearance can be adjusted long after completion. Change a mesh with a button push and the entire workflow done at once.
Dynamic Parameters
Bring procedural assets to life with dynamic parameters. Control incoming values or expose any value as output.
Node and Material Library
A massive library of nodes at your fingertips: specialized blurs, geometry scattering, procedural modeling. Plus hundreds of high-quality stock materials.
Quick Search
Find everything instantly. Fuzzy logic and context sensitivity to always find what you need.
Canvas Mini Map
Overview of your entire canvas. Drag to navigate or draw a box to set your view.
Packed with Features

Scan processing, dopesheet animatable graphs, material workflows, make-seamless tools, style transfer, image synthesis, node favorites, package-based workflows, AxF support, grunge library, colorspace management, noises and patterns, canvas and viewport tonemapping, viewport gizmos, C++ SDK, native node plugins, PBR mesh render nodes, procedural modelling, baking nodes, comments, node shortcuts, Element expressions, customizable export templates, GPU baking, layer materials, powerful node widgets, bezier curves, mesh modifier library, material effects, mesh-based noises, canvas screenshots, viewport design-reviews, material templates, InstaMAT nodes, pointcloud manipulation, AI based style transfer and superresolution, PBR texture atlas and so much more!
Looping Graphs
Both the nPass Element Graph and Atom Graph make it possible to build nodes that are looping or branching. This enables you to build mesh scatter nodes, simulations, perform raytracing, and more.
And So Much More
Endless features to discover. Start building marvelous materials and powerful pipelines.
Layering & Painting
Texture and paint your 3D models with scalable, non-destructive workflows.
Introducing Layering and Painting
Create stunning textures with an intuitive, creative workflow. Procedural and non-destructive means you can change your asset without breaking texturing. InstaMAT lets you texture not just one asset, but an entire class of assets.
Smart Prefab Layer Materials
Save layers or layer groups to your library. Drag into new projects and they unfold automatically with all painted layers, procedurals, effects, and masks.
Effects, Filters & Masks
Curves, levels, HSL, and more. Generators blend procedural content. Mesh masks with rule-systems enable scaling over all assets.
Element Graph Compatibility
Use procedural nodes as layer inputs, brush masks, or projected brushes. Drop layering projects into Element Graphs for limitless automation.
Customizable brush presets and templates. Always have the brush you need.
Brush Dynamics
Pressure sensitivity, customizable curves, rotation control, randomizable properties. Perfect for pen tablet users.
UDIMs and Multiple Materials
Deep support for UDIM tiles in layering projects and InstaMAT's procedural paint engine let you texture even the most demanding VFX assets. UDIM tiles can be viewed individually and properties such as rendering resolutions can be set up on a per-tile basis. Multiple materials per asset are supported within a single layering project.
Gizmos and Familiar UX
Adjust projections, control decals or 3D volume masks with a what-you-see-is-what-you-get experience. InstaMAT's viewport gizmos make everything easier.
Materialize Image
Turn any image into a beautiful, tileable 3D material with AI-powered decomposition.
Materialize Image
Create procedural PBR materials from static images and photos. By feeding InstaMAT just a single input, it generates all maps needed for PBR rendering: base color, normal, height, ambient occlusion, and more.
AI Super-Resolution
More than just scaling up pixels: InstaMAT's neural super resolution increases both the resolution and the fidelity of input content.
Image Synthesis
Turn static materials into fully generative materials with limitless variation using advanced image synthesis.
Procedural Effects
Dynamic grunge maps, configurable dirt, dust, and water layers — easily enhance the procedural quality of any material.
Pipeline Automation
Automate your asset pipeline at scale with command-line execution and CI/CD integration.
Productivity amplified.
No matter where or how you work, InstaMAT will fit like a glove and catalyze your ability to deliver.
InstaMAT Studio
The complete content-creation platform. Design materials, texture assets, build procedural graphs, and paint in 3D.
InstaMAT Pipeline
Command-line execution of Element Graphs. Integrate into CI/CD, batch process assets, automate your workflows.

From concept to scale.
Build scalable, automated asset pipelines that eliminate repetitive work and let your team focus on creativity.
Automate entire asset categories
One layering project generates dozens of unique, game-ready variations: retopologized, optimized, and exported automatically.
Scale entire categories at once
Design once, generate hundreds. Stack materials, wear, and effects non-destructively, resolution-independent textures scale from high-end to mobile without sacrificing fidelity.
Visual automation, no scripting
Build node graphs that batch-process hundreds of assets. Retopology, UV-unwrapping, baking, and LOD generation: InstaMAT's intuitive interface makes complex pipelines approachable for everyone.
The complete pipeline
InstaMAT integrates seamlessly with the Abstract product family to deliver an end-to-end workflow from data-prepping to material design and deployment with full scalability.
