Upload a compatible humanoid character in FBX or GLB. Uthana’s auto-rigging model creates a motion-ready skeleton so the character can receive generated or retargeted 3D motion.
Auto rigging, also called automated rigging, adds a skeleton to an unrigged 3D character so it can receive skeletal animation. It reduces the manual joint placement, hierarchy setup, and rig-preparation work required before a static mesh can move.
Uthana’s AI model estimates a humanoid skeleton from the uploaded character and prepares the character for motion. Auto-rigging typically takes 30–60 seconds. The API returns a confidence score so platforms can identify results that may need review.
The web app and GraphQL API accept compatible FBX and GLB character files smaller than 30 MB. Auto-rigging works best on recognizable bipedal humanoid characters with a visible head, torso, two arms, and two legs.
The model may have difficulty with:
Slightly stylized or cartoon characters may still rig successfully.
Upload a compatible bipedal humanoid character in FBX or GLB through the web app or GraphQL API.
Uthana estimates a humanoid skeleton and prepares the character to receive motion. API integrations can also request finger joints.
Once the character is rigged, describe a performance with Text-to-Motion, reconstruct one from video, create directional movement with Locomotion, or apply an existing motion through retargeting.
Preview the animated character and download the result for the production pipeline. API integrations can use the returned confidence score to identify rigs that may need review.
Character-generation, avatar, and UGC platforms can place automated rigging between mesh creation and animation. A static character enters the workflow; a character with a motion-compatible skeleton leaves it.
Use the GraphQL API to upload characters, enable auto-rigging, request finger joints, and read the returned confidence score. Contact Uthana to discuss production volume, review thresholds, failure handling, and integration requirements.
No. Automated rigging prepares the character to receive skeletal animation. After rigging, you can generate motion from text, video, or locomotion controls, or apply an existing motion through retargeting.
Auto-rigging adds a motion-compatible skeleton to an unrigged character. Motion retargeting transfers an existing motion onto a character that already has a skeleton.
Uthana accepts compatible bipedal humanoid characters in FBX or GLB format. Files must be smaller than 30 MB.
Auto-rigging typically takes 30–60 seconds. Results can vary with the character and file.
Finger joints can be requested through the GraphQL API. Characters with poor finger geometry may require review.
