Use case
Planters, vases and home decor with exact dimensions
Geometric planters and vases are where a text description shines: “a hexagonal planter 90 mm across with a slight taper and three drainage holes” is a complete spec. SpeakCAD gets the proportions right and keeps the walls printable.
Prompts that work
Copy one, change the numbers to yours, and the model appears in seconds.“A hexagonal planter 90 mm across and 80 mm tall, 2.4 mm walls, 3° taper, three 6 mm drainage holes, matching saucer with a 3 mm lip.”
“A twisted vase 60 mm base, 120 mm tall, 12 facets rotated 30° over the height, single wall for spiral vase mode.”
“A self-watering planter: 100 mm diameter inner pot with 4 mm wicking slots, outer reservoir 25 mm deep, fill window on the side.”
Styles you can ask for
Faceted, fluted, twisted, ribbed, stepped, low-poly, smooth with fillets. Specify the number of facets or ribs and the twist angle; the AI builds the profile and extrudes it with the right resolution for smooth curves.
Drainage, saucers and self-watering
Ask for drainage holes (count and diameter), a matching saucer with a lip, or a two-part self-watering design with a reservoir and wicking slots. Each piece is laid out on the bed ready to print.
Vase mode
If you want to print in spiral vase mode, say so: SpeakCAD produces a single closed outline with a solid base so your slicer's vase setting works without overhang or gap issues.

Questions
Yes. Give the pot's top diameter and height, and ask for 2 mm clearance; the outer planter will hide the pot with a rim.
PLA works indoors. For outdoor or wet use, PETG or ASA is better; the geometry is the same.
