Tripo AI Raises $150M Series A3 for 3D and World Models
Tripo AI has closed a $150M Series A3 backed by Geely Capital and a cross-sector syndicate to expand its 3D foundation models, Project Eden world model and enterprise commercialization.
Key Takeaways
Tripo AI closed a $150 million Series A3 round, adding to nearly $200 million raised just a month earlier via its Series A+/A++ round.
Geely Capital anchored the strategic side, joined by gaming publishers 4399 Network, Tanwan and Giant Network, plus Fosun Capital, Orinno Capital, CoStone Capital, Addor Capital, T-Capital and Muhua Tech Ventures; existing backers INCE Capital and Genesis Capital increased their stakes.
Recent product momentum includes Tripo H3.1, Tripo P1.0, 8K Texture Generation, Segmentation V2 and Project Eden, a world-model research preview that decouples state simulation from visual rendering.
Proceeds will fund core algorithm development, data infrastructure and hiring, plus enterprise commercialization in intelligent manufacturing, interactive entertainment and embodied AI.
The raise reflects a broader wave of physical-AI investment, alongside Bespoke Labs' $40M Series A and TwelveLabs' $100M Series B.
