Description

afk.ai rigs the models Mixamo can't. Upload a GLB, glTF or FBX and an AI finds the legs, wings, tail and head, then fits a skeleton made for that kind of body: four-legged and hoofed animals, birds, dragons, dinosaurs, spiders, snakes, fish and people. Preview its animations on your model and download one GLB for Unity, Unreal, Godot or Blender. Free, and it runs in your browser on your own GPU.

Could you build this?

No Arbitrary non-humanoid 3D auto-rigging and skinning across diverse topologies (dragons, fish, quadrupeds) requires novel 3D computer vision and deep learning research.

What it would actually take: A production pipeline requires deep geometric deep learning models (such as RigNet or NeuroSkinning variants) trained on massive 3D mesh datasets with diverse joint topologies. It demands complex 3D processing pipelines (libigl, Open3D, PyTorch3D) to perform anatomical segmentation, bone placement estimation, volumetric skinning weights generation, and export to standard glTF/FBX skinning containers, requiring specialized 3D graphics researchers.
