Tafi Unveils Revolutionary Text-to-3D Character Engine, Transforming Creative Workflows

Tafi, the renowned provider of 3D digital content and software, and the owner of Daz 3D, has made a groundbreaking announcement regarding its latest development. Tafi has introduced an innovative text-to-3D character engine that is set to revolutionize the way artists, developers, and creative professionals bring their ideas to life. This cutting-edge technology simplifies the process of creating high-quality 3D characters based solely on text input, making it faster and more accessible than ever before.

James Thornton, the CEO of Tafi, expressed his excitement about the new generative character engine, stating, "We're thrilled to introduce this generative character engine. Our mission has always been to simplify the hardest parts of 3D creation so the end result is more accessible for creators - it's hard to imagine it getting easier than this. As a bonus, it's been invigorating to see how many viable use cases this has, not only for individual creators but also for studios and our enterprise partners."

Tafi leverages a massive 3D dataset derived from its proprietary Genesis character platform, widely embraced by professional artists. This dataset consists of tens of billions of 3D character variations, each containing unique, known values. The meticulously labeled and organized dataset serves as the foundation for training Tafi's text-to-3D character engine.

Currently, Tafi enables users to export high-quality characters from Daz Studio to popular game engines and 3D software applications in native formats, including Unreal, Unity, Blender, Autodesk 3ds Max, Autodesk Maya, and Maxon Cinema 4D. The upcoming update will also include support for NVIDIA's Omniverse via Universal Scene Description (OpenUSD). With the launch of the text-to-3D character engine, Tafi's users will be able to export 3D characters in native file formats to these destinations, providing unprecedented value and flexibility.

Richard Kerris, Vice President of the Omniverse developer ecosystem and Head of Developer Relations at NVIDIA, highlighted the significance of generative AI in empowering creators. He stated, "With generative AI, creators have an expanding array of new tools to inspire their artistic vision, speed their workflows, and offer new business opportunities. Tafi has been bringing the latest technologies to the creative community on the NVIDIA platform for more than a decade, and we're excited to work with them as they connect their 3D character engine to NVIDIA Omniverse."

Tafi's commitment to supporting its artist community spans over two decades, during which it has distributed over $200 million in revenue-sharing models. To continue this tradition, Tafi has devised a methodology to record attribution and monetization for artists who choose to be included in the engine. Mada De Leeuw, a 3D expert based in Melbourne who publishes with Daz 3D, expressed support for Tafi's approach, stating, "A lot of creators are understandably wary of how AI will impact them. Tafi's approach protects artists, and I join many others in the community supporting the solution they are building."

Tafi is actively evaluating beta program candidates and enterprise use cases for its foundation model. Interested individuals can register at https://MakeTafi.com/newsroom.
