Avaturn is an AI tool that creates a 3D avatar from a selfie. It detects facial features, builds a 3D model, and lets you refine the result with built-in editing tools. The service is positioned for games, marketing, and virtual experiences.
How it works
You sign in on the website and scan a QR code with your phone. For best results:
- Remove glasses
- Keep hair away from your face
- Use good lighting
- Hold the phone straight in front of your face (not above or below)
You then take three photos (front, head turned right, head turned left). Processing starts automatically, and you can customize and download the avatar in the web editor.
Use cases
Avaturn can be used for:
- Game development
- Advertising and marketing campaigns
- Populating apps and metaverse projects with avatars
- Character animation in Mixamo or VTubing
Customization, export, and integration
Avaturn offers multiple body types, hairstyles, and clothing options. Exports work with Unity, Unreal Engine, Blender, Maya, and other environments, with built-in rigging for quick animation tests. Developers can use plugins and an SDK to embed avatar creation into their own products. A free plan is available; Pro and Enterprise add branding, custom clothing models, and higher avatar limits.
