TRELLIS.2 turns a single image into a textured 3D GLB with PBR materials.

Features

TRELLIS.2 turns a single image into a textured 3D GLB with PBR materials.

Upload a clear image of one object to create a 3D asset for games, visualization or further editing.

Inputs

  • image: one image URL, data URI or base64 image. Text and multi-view inputs are not supported.
  • resolution: 512, 1024 or 1536; defaults to 1024.
  • texture_size: 1024, 2048 or 4096; defaults to 2048.
  • target_face_count: approximate simplification target, 10,000–1,000,000; defaults to 200,000.
  • remove_background: remove background before generation; enabled by default.
  • seed: optional fixed seed; -1 uses a random seed.

Output

One downloadable GLB with embedded UVs, base-color and metallic/roughness textures. Fine lettering, faces and small parts can vary from the input. The mesh is not guaranteed to be watertight.

Pricing

Per successful generation: 512 $0.10, 1024 $0.20, 1536 $0.40. Selecting 4096-pixel textures adds $0.05. Higher resolution and complex objects take longer to generate.

Authentication

Parameters

Task Submission Parameters

Request Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDefaultRangeDescription
imagestringYes-Single input image URL, data URI or base64 image.
resolutionstringNo1024512, 1024, 1536Geometry resolution. Higher resolution takes more time and memory.
texture_sizeintegerNo20481024, 2048, 4096PBR texture resolution in pixels.
target_face_countintegerNo20000010000 ~ 1000000Target mesh face count after simplification. The final count is approximate.
remove_backgroundbooleanNotrue-Remove the image background before generation. Disable to use existing image alpha.
seedintegerNo--Random seed. Use -1 for a random seed.
enable_base64_outputbooleanNofalse-If set to `true`, the prediction's `output` strings are returned as **naked base64** (no `data:<mime>;base64,` prefix). When `false` (default), outputs are returned as URLs pointing to our CDN.

Response Parameters

ParameterTypeDescription
codeintegerHTTP status code (e.g., 200 for success)
messagestringStatus message (e.g., “success”)
data.idstringUnique identifier for the prediction, Task Id
data.modelstringModel ID used for the prediction
data.outputsarrayOutput values, usually URL strings; some models return text strings or structured result objects (empty when status is not completed)
data.urlsobjectObject containing related API endpoints
data.statusstringTask status. completed is successful; failed, cancelled, timeout, and deleted are failure terminal statuses.
data.created_atstringISO timestamp of when the request was created (e.g., “2023-04-01T12:34:56.789Z”)
