Tripo AI review

Tripo AI is the closest rival to Meshy and wins on part-level control. Smart Segmentation splits a model into parts, and you can then retopologize, retexture or transform each part separately, which helps when a generated character has one bad hand or a prop needs a different material on the handle. Generation covers text, single images and multiple views, with HD models, a Smart Mesh low-poly mode, quad topology and auto rigging. Higher plans add 8K textures. The DCC Bridge sends models to Blender, 3ds Max, Maya and ZBrush and to Unity, Unreal, Godot and Cocos. Pricing is clear: the free plan gives 200 credits a month, about 13 models, but those models are public and non-commercial. Pro costs $20 a month billed annually for 3,000 credits, which Tripo estimates at about 200 models, with private models and commercial use. Team plans add shared workspaces and centralized billing.
