Terms of Service
The plain-language version: search all you want, we don't host anything, results point at other people's sites, and you're responsible for how you use what you find there.
Last updated: 10 August 2026Acceptance of these terms
By using meshhound.com (the "Service"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you don't agree, please don't use the Service. We may update these terms from time to time; the "last updated" date above will change when we do, and continued use after an update means you accept the revised terms.
What Meshhound is
Meshhound is a meta-search engine for 3D-printable models. We index listings from third-party model-hosting sites and let you search across them from one place. We do not host, store, sell, or distribute any 3D model files ourselves. Every download happens on the original source site, under that site's own terms.
Acceptable use
You agree not to: use the Service to violate any law or a third-party site's terms of service; attempt to scrape, bulk-download, or reverse-engineer Meshhound's index or infrastructure; interfere with or disrupt the Service (including its availability for other users); or misrepresent your identity in any communication with us. We may suspend or block access for use that violates these terms.
Third-party sites and content
Search results link to model listings hosted on other websites (Thingiverse, Printables, MyMiniFactory, Cults3D, and others). We don't control those sites, and we make no guarantee about the accuracy, legality, safety, printability, or licensing of anything you find through them. Once you click through, you're subject to that site's own terms and policies, and any transaction, download, or account you create there is between you and that site, not us. See our attribution policy for how we handle sourcing and creator rights.
Intellectual property
The 3D models indexed by Meshhound belong to their original creators and the platforms that host them; we claim no ownership over any of it. Meshhound's own branding, design, and the software behind the search itself are ours (or licensed to us), and you don't get any rights to them beyond normal use of the Service. If you're a creator and believe your work is misattributed or you'd like a listing removed from our index, see the removal request process.
No warranty
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We don't guarantee the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that search results will be complete, current, or accurate. Model availability, pricing, and licensing shown through Meshhound can change on the source site at any time without our knowledge.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Meshhound and its operator won't be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service or of any third-party site you reach through it, including issues with a downloaded file, a purchase made on a source site, or a print that doesn't turn out the way you hoped.
Advertising
To help keep the Service free, Meshhound may display advertising, including through Google AdSense. Ads may be served by third parties who use their own cookies or tracking technologies, subject to their own policies. See our privacy policy for details.
Changes to the Service
We may add, remove, or change sources, features, or how the Service works at any time, without notice, as we keep building it.
