Hi3D releases production-validated AI 3D model as open source
Hi3D has released its V1.0 AI model, formerly known as Sparc3D, as open source, providing developers and enterprises with access to its underlying code and model weights.
Beijing-based Hi3D has moved to an open-source model with the release of Hi3D V1.0, previously referred to as Sparc3D. The company has made the source code and model weights available to the public, marking a shift from its previous proprietary deployment.
This release provides developers, researchers, and enterprises with the capability to integrate the production-validated tool into their own workflows. The transition is part of a broader trend in the generative AI sector, where companies are increasingly moving away from closed-garden ecosystems to foster wider adoption and community-driven improvement.
As the demand for automated 3D content creation grows, access to refined AI models remains a bottleneck for many industries. By opening its architecture, Hi3D intends to lower the barrier for technical teams looking to incorporate generative 3D assets into existing software environments.
