Tripo AI

What it does

Tripo AI turns text prompts or images into 3D models, and can add textures, retopology, rigging, animation and part-based segmentation. Outputs can be exported in several 3D formats or sent to supported 3D software through a DCC bridge.

Common uses include generating game-ready props quickly and refining them with smart mesh, smart UV unwrapping and part-by-part texture editing. Its distinguishing features are the credit-based generation pipeline and the DCC bridge into tools such as Blender, Unity and Unreal.

It suits game developers, 3D artists and studios that need a fast starting point for models. Generation is metered by monthly credits, which vary by plan. Free-plan outputs are non-commercial with attribution required, while paid plans add private models and commercial rights. Credit costs per operation differ across features.

What it can do

• Generate 3D models from text or images
• Refine models with smart mesh, retopology and smart UV
• Texture generation and editing, including 4K upscale
• Rigging and animation of generated models
• Part-based segmentation and editing
• Export to 3D formats and DCC bridge to supported software

• Blender
• 3ds Max
• Unity
• Unreal
• Maya
• Cocos
• Godot
• ZBrush

Example workflows

Generate a game prop from a prompt

Input: a text description of a prop. Steps: generate a base HD model, apply texture, run smart mesh retopology, export to a DCC tool. Output: an exported 3D model ready for further editing in the chosen software.

Refine a generated model by part

Input: an existing generated model. Steps: run segmentation, edit individual parts with part-based texture edit or retopology, then export. Output: a model with separately edited components.

Before you choose

• Free-plan outputs are non-commercial with attribution, and IP belongs to Tripo; paid plans give commercial use for private models.
• Credit cost varies by operation; smart mesh generations cost substantially more than standard HD models.
• Plan names and monthly prices differ between the pricing page and product documentation, so confirm the current plan before subscribing.
