What do our customers think about Gaia Pro:

Disappointingly Easy and User Friendly

That’s it?? It’s too easy to use. I’ve gotten so used to epically frustrating hair-pulling efforts to make an asset bend to my will that when something just works it becomes anticlimactic. I’ll need to intentionally sabotage my work and request bad unresponsive support just to feel normal. 😉 Jokes aside, I’m just glad I got Gaia. 🙂

Excellent tool, great compatiblity

I shot myself in the foot over the past year mixing and matching assets to do what this does all along, Should have used Gaia since I owned it when it was first released.

Blown away

I did not realise how much this was going to help me towards my development goals until I started using it… I had so many scenes in my head that I did not know how I was going to achieve, and now I see a path forward for many of them.

Still not sure ?

Give Gaia 2 a go instead. Gaia 2 is a cut down version of Gaia Pro. The upgrade from Gaia 2 to Gaia Pro is discounted to ensure that even if you try Gaia 2 first, you will not be out of pocket when you upgrade to Gaia Pro.

Third Party Licences:

Gaia contains sample assets from other publishers that have been included with their permission, shaders derived from the Unity Standard Shaders package, and shaders derived from the Unity Terrain Tools package and made available for use under the Unity Companion License. Information about these licences have been included within the relevant directories in Gaia.

Upgrade Policy:

Every year as we further develop our products we will charge an upgrade fee which is usually around 20-50% of the full purchase price for the next major release of our software. These upgrades are aligned to the major Unity versions they support. You are not obliged to update to newer versions of our products if you do not need to, however old versions of our products will not be supported on new versions of Unity. All upgrade money is fed back to the team to ensure that we can continue to update, grow and support our products and customers over time.
