Texturing | Overview

AI texture generation API overview. Apply and edit textures on 3D models using Tencent Hunyuan and Tripo. PBR material output from text, image, or style reference.

Overview

The Texturing API lets you generate and apply high-quality textures to existing 3D models using AI. Provide a 3D model file and either a reference image or a text prompt, and receive the model back with AI-generated textures. Supports PBR material output when using text prompts.
