Griptape helps studios and artists integrate AI into structured, repeatable, secure, and controllable workflows.
AI is changing how creative work gets done, but bringing it into real production pipelines can be difficult. Instead of relying on one AI model at a time, Griptape enables you to connect multiple models, tools, and processes inside a Node Graph, making it easier to build workflows that can be reused, refined, and shared across teams.
Backed by Foundry’s 30 years of production experience, Griptape is especially useful in Animation and VFX across asset creation, concept design, and pre-production, from compositing and clean-up in Nuke, plus look development and lighting in Katana, to texture generation in Mari.
With Griptape, teams can explore ideas faster, automate repetitive tasks, and keep AI workflows consistent, flexible, and production-ready.
