Tripo is an AI 3D model generator that turns an image, sketch or text prompt into a textured mesh through its web app, Tripo Studio. Its homepage describes quad meshes from 500 to 25,000 polygons, automatic rigging for characters and creatures, and exports in GLB, FBX, OBJ and USD for engines including Unity, Unreal, Godot, Cocos and Roblox. Tripo also lists plugins for Blender, 3ds Max, Unity and other tools, and an API.

Tripo's terms of service name Holymolly Ltd as the operator. Its research is published under the VAST-AI-Research GitHub account: TripoSG, an image-to-3D shape model labeled "By Tripo", is available under the MIT license, but the hosted service isn't open source.

Tripo models show up in other pipelines AIGamer has covered. The open-source tool anymove starts its example pipeline with a Tripo H3.1 mesh that cost about $0.40, according to the anymove README.

As of October 2026, Tripo's US pricing page lists a free plan with 200 credits a month (about 13 models), Pro at $20 a month (3,000 credits) and Max at $90 a month (25,000 credits); annual billing works out to $240 and $1,080 a year. The Team plan is $55 per seat a month billed annually or $110 month to month. Free-plan models are public and non-commercial, so commercial game work needs a paid plan. AIGamer hasn't tested Tripo.
