Overview
Tripo AI (by VAST) is the most widely used AI 3D model generator — 20M+ creators and 200M+ models generated, with partners including Sony, NetEase Games, and ByteDance. It turns text prompts, images, photos, or sketches into 3D models in seconds, in two modes: High Detail (up to 2M polygons for VFX/printing) and Smart Mesh (artist-quality quad topology, engine-ready with no retopology).
Key Features
- Text & Image to 3D: prompt or photo in, textured 3D model out in under a minute
- Smart Mesh: clean quad meshes from 500 to 25K polygons — game-ready, no manual retopology
- Auto-Rigging: production-ready skeletons for characters and creatures
- AI Texturing: full PBR sets (albedo, normal, metallic, roughness) up to 8K
- Smart Segmentation: automatically splits models into parts sized for your 3D printer bed
- DCC Bridge Plugins: one-click integration with Blender, Unity, Unreal, Maya, 3ds Max, Cocos, Godot, ZBrush, Roblox
