Microsoft launches Copilot 3D to make 3D creation faster and easier, here’s how

Soon after the GPT-5 backed Smart Mode in Copilot, Microsoft announced its new tool that can convert a regular 2D image into a fully rendered 3D model. Named as the Copilot 3D, the new tool is claimed to be designed to make 3D creations faster, accessible and more intuitive. With this, the tech giant aims to simplify the complex process of making the 3D assets.

The tool, which is part of Copilot Labs, is currently available for free but to a limited number of users. If you want to access it, you will have to sign in with a Microsoft or Google account and Microsoft recommends using the desktop browser for enhanced performance.

In order to get your hands on the newly introduced Copilot 3D tool, the users will have to visit Copilot.com and then open the sidebar menu. Now select Labs and click Try now under Copilot 3D. It must be noted that the tool supports PNG and JPG images under 10MB, with plans to expand file format and size support in the future.

Soon after you upload an image, Copilot 3D will generate a 3D version in seconds, exporting models in the GLB format, compatible with most 3D viewers, tools, and game engines. Models are stored for 28 days and can be viewed in the “My Creations” section.

The company also advises the users to use images with a clear separation between subject and background for best results. However, the tool may struggle with animals and certain objects, early testing shows strong performance with items like furniture, umbrellas and fruit. All creations can also be exported for Augmented Reality applications.

The company has also warned the users against uploading images of people of copyrighted material without the permissions, stating that violations can also result in account bans. The tech giant also stated that these creations will not be used to train the upcoming AI models, but illegal content will automatically be blocked.
