Tripo Rig
Connect Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or Codex to Layer’s MCP server and Tripo Rig becomes a tool your agent can reach for — it picks the parameters, runs the generation, and shows you the result in the conversation.

Why use Tripo Rig for 3D?
High-quality 3D generation
Tripo Rig produces clean geometry, accurate proportions, and detailed surfaces suitable for game-ready assets and prototyping.
Engine-ready output
Exports in standard formats compatible with Unity, Unreal Engine, and Blender. PBR materials and clean topology where supported.
Rapid prototyping
Go from concept to 3D asset in minutes. Ideal for early-stage exploration, shop items, and LiveOps content.
Rapid 3D asset prototyping for game development
Go from concept image to 3D model in minutes. Ideal for evaluating designs, testing in-engine, and building asset libraries.
Shop items and cosmetic content for LiveOps
Generate 3D items, weapons, and cosmetics for live service updates. Keep your content pipeline flowing without bottlenecks.
Marketing renders and promotional 3D content
Create polished 3D renders for store listings, social media, and ad creatives without heavy production overhead.
FAQ
How much does Tripo Rig cost? Is it free?+
How does Layer's pricing work?+
There are no seat fees, feature gates, or plans on Layer. Instead, our platform uses a consumption based system with Creative Units (CUs) with a flexible monthly subscription. Every generation on Layer (image, video, 3D, or audio) consumes a Creative Unit, and you only pay for what you create.
Other 3d models on Layer
Tripo v3.0
Tripo
Latest 3D model for production-quality assets with superior textures and clean geometry.
Tripo Smart Retopology v3
Tripo
Tripo's newest retopology: rebuilds a high-poly mesh as clean low-poly topology at a target face count, baking the original textures onto the result.
Tripo Smart UV
Tripo
Re-unwraps a mesh's UVs with AI-placed seams and packed islands, then remaps its existing textures, rig and animation onto the new layout. Geometry is kept as-is.
Tripo Segment
Tripo
Segments a 3D mesh into parts, returning a part-grouped model for further editing.
Tripo Retexture
Tripo
Retextures an existing mesh from a text prompt or reference image, keeping geometry intact.
Hunyuan 3D v2 Mini
Tencent
Lightweight, efficient 3D version optimized for less powerful hardware. Delivers good quality assets.
