Tripo3D Image-to-Splat

Tripo3D Image-to-Splat turns a single image into a 3D Gaussian Splat (.splat) for real-time, photorealistic rendering, powered by Tripo.

Why Choose This?

  • Official Tripo models The same Tripo models used in Tripo Studio, served as a REST API.

  • Production-ready output Download the result as a 3D file ready for game engines, DCC tools, AR and 3D printing.

  • Pay per task No subscription; you pay only for what you run.

Parameters

ParameterRequiredDescription
imageYesImage of the object (PNG, JPEG or WebP, up to 20 MB). A clean background and little occlusion work best.
model_seedNoSeed: the same seed and input give the same splat.

Pricing

$0.36 per splat.

How to Use

  1. Upload an image — one object, clean background, little occlusion.
  2. Adjust the options you need, or keep the defaults.
  3. Submit — download the 3D file when it is ready.
Note:This website uses AI models provided by third parties. Documentation prices are for reference and may be outdated. The Generate button shows an estimate; the final task charge prevails.

Splat Image To Splat API — Quick start

Grab a WaveSpeedAI API key, then call POST https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/tripo3d/splat/image-to-splat with your input as JSON. The endpoint returns a prediction id. Start polling the result endpoint around every 2 seconds, increase the interval for long-running tasks, and stop on any terminal status. On completed, read output values from data.outputs. Examples for Splat Image To Splat below.

HTTP example
set -euo pipefail

: "${WAVESPEED_API_KEY:?Set WAVESPEED_API_KEY}"

REQUEST_BODY=$(cat <<'JSON'
{
    "image": "https://interactive-examples.mdn.mozilla.net/media/cc0-images/painted-hand-298-332.jpg"
}

)

# 1. Submit the prediction.

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $WAVESPEED_API_KEY" \
  -d "$REQUEST_BODY")

TASK=$(printf '%s' "$SUBMIT_RESPONSE" | jq 'if has("data") then .data else . end')

Node.js example

async function requestJson(url, options = {}) {
  const response = await fetch(url, options);

}

// 1. Submit the prediction.

});
const task = body.data ?? body;

const resultUrl = `https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/predictions/${task.id}/result`;

// 2. Poll until the prediction finishes.

Splat Image To Splat API — Frequently asked questions

What is the Splat Image To Splat API?

Splat Image To Splat is a Tripo3D model for 3D asset generation from images, exposed as a REST API on WaveSpeedAI. Tripo3D Image-to-Splat turns a single image into a 3D Gaussian Splat (.splat) for real-time, photorealistic rendering. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing. You can call it programmatically or try it from the playground above.

How do I call the Splat Image To Splat API?

POST your input parameters to the model's REST endpoint (shown in the API tab of this playground) with your WaveSpeedAI API key in the Authorization header. Submission returns a prediction ID. Poll the result endpoint starting around every 2 seconds, increase the interval for long-running tasks, and stop on any terminal status. The playground generates Python, JavaScript, and cURL examples for submitting requests and polling results. Full request/response shape is documented at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/tripo3d/tripo3d-splat-image-to-splat.

How much does Splat Image To Splat cost per run or per second?

Splat Image To Splat starts at $0.36 per run or per second. That figure is the base price — the final charge scales with the parameters you set in the form (output size, length, count, references, or whatever knobs this model exposes), so a higher-quality or larger output costs more than a minimal one. The exact cost for your current input is shown live next to the Generate button before you submit, and the actual per-call charge is recorded on the prediction afterwards.

What inputs does Splat Image To Splat accept?

Key inputs: `image`, `model_seed`. The full JSON schema (types, defaults, allowed values) is rendered above the Generate button and mirrored in the API reference at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/tripo3d/tripo3d-splat-image-to-splat.

How do I get started with the Splat Image To Splat API?

Sign up for a free WaveSpeedAI account to claim starter credits, copy your API key from /accesskey, then call the endpoint shown in the API tab of the playground. The playground also auto-generates a code sample in Python, JavaScript, or cURL for the parameters you've set.

Can I use Splat Image To Splat outputs commercially?

Commercial usage rights depend on the model's license, set by its provider (Tripo3D). Check the provider's applicable terms and WaveSpeedAI's Terms of Service before commercial use.
