Generate, edit, and control 3D assets with the precision and logic of clean, parametric code. Leverage AI to achieve scale without losing creative control.
Thrixel empowers 3D technical artists with a next-generation professional workspace.
Easily build parametric 3D models represented as code, using simple text as input. Every asset is delivered as a lightweight, logically organized hierarchy of parts with clean topology, allowing you to rapidly prototype and pivot creative directions early in the design process.
Iterate via text prompts and built-in UI controls. With our code-driven foundation, you can manipulate high-level features in real-time – and branch, undo, or revert to any previous version.
Our assets are ready for immediate use, whether you need a smart placeholder for gray-boxing or a more complex mesh. Seamlessly integrate into your pipelines through direct API access.
Founder & CEO
Founding Machine Learning Engineer
Thrixel was founded by Rana Hanocka, a Professor in Computer Science at the University of Chicago and a pioneer in 3D deep learning research, whose foundational works over the past decade helped define how AI interacts with 3D data. Today, Thrixel is translating that research into a new standard for 3D creation that accelerates professional workflows while keeping full creative control in the hands of the artist. Thrixel is backed by top-tier institutional VCs and industry veterans.
"We started Thrixel because 3D asset creation using generative AI shouldn't be a black box. Building on years of cutting-edge research, Thrixel pairs the speed and scale that AI can offer with the precision and control that professional artists deserve. We are currently in stealth and working closely with a select group of studios, enterprises, and design partners."
