7 partsMany 3D models arrive as a single piece. Send one and get each part back as its own file (the wings, the wheels, the lid), ready to move, swap or animate. Every part also gets a simple collision shape for physics, and a report describes how the parts fit together: their size, what touches what, which parts mirror each other and an estimate of their mass. The parts found depend on the model.
Drag the slider to split the example model. Hover or select a part to isolate it.
Wings, wheels, handles: each part comes back separately, in the format you choose.
Each part gets its own collision shape and estimated mass, so it can fall, stack and collide in a game or simulation.
A report maps what touches what and which parts mirror each other, so your code knows the model's layout.

Connect your agent and it can use this tool right away, or call it from your own code. One key works for both.
Send a file body, or JSON containing an upload ID or public URL. Options such as detail go in the JSON options object, or the query string for a file body.
