What AO.Hub needs

AO.Hub is the installer and account bridge for AO Studio Tools. Keep the setup simple: install it once in Maya, then let the Hub handle tools, updates, and access.

Autodesk Maya

AO Studio Tools run inside Autodesk Maya. Download the ZIP, extract it, then drag the installer into Maya as described below.

One account

Use one email address for free tools, paid entitlements, commercial access, and future updates. Verified users can log in directly.

Current package

The download button points to the current AO.Hub package configured on the server, so this page does not need a manual edit for every release.

Returning users: if your email is already verified, go straight to Login. You do not need to register a second time.

Register, login, or use the commercial flow

Most people only need one of these three paths. Follow the account flow that matches your access.

New here?

Use Register inside AO.Hub, create your account, confirm the email once, then log in and install what is available to you.

Already verified?

Use Login and continue directly. AO.Hub will sync the tools tied to your account without making you repeat registration.

Commercial or studio?

If you need commercial access, seat setup, or a studio-specific entitlement, use the dedicated commercial flow.

Need the commercial path? Open Commercial Access. Want the legal or privacy details first? See Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.

Common install questions

Do I need an AO.Hub account?

Yes. AO.Hub uses your account to connect installs, available tools, commercial entitlements, and updates to the right email address.

Should I register again if my email is already verified?

No. Use Login inside AO.Hub. Register again only if the verification email has not arrived after 20 minutes; check spam and carefully re-enter the email address.

Is the download button always current?

Yes. The page uses the current AO.Hub download endpoint, which redirects to the latest configured package.
