Create stunning photorealistic images and videos from any CAD system, real life photo, or even a quick napkin sketch.
IMAGE RENDERS COMPLETE IN 60 SECONDS.
Scenario is a creative AI platform for game, media, and marketing teams that generate images, video, 3D assets, audio, textures, and skyboxes from prompts, references, and custom-trained models. It is built for style-consistent asset production and automated creative pipelines rather than CAD screenshot enhancement.
Scenario is best when a game, media, or marketing team wants to generate new style-consistent assets with custom models, references, editing tools, and API automation. RENDERCAD starts from an existing CAD viewport, product image, architectural view, or design screenshot and turns it into a polished still render without training a model or rebuilding the scene. Choose Scenario for asset generation and pipeline automation; choose RENDERCAD for fast presentation renders from designs you already have.
Scenario and RENDERCAD overlap around better visuals, but Scenario is a creative asset production platform. Its workflow usually begins with prompts, references, or training image sets, then uses model selection, optional custom training, generation credits, editing operations, upscaling, and asset management to produce images, videos, textures, skyboxes, audio, or 3D meshes. That is useful for teams that need repeatable art direction and programmable generation across a game, media, or marketing pipeline.
RENDERCAD is narrower and lighter: upload a CAD viewport, product screenshot, architectural image, or design view and get a refined still without setting up a game asset pipeline, preparing training data, automating an API workflow, or tuning renderer materials. It will not replace Scenario's generative model library, custom style workflows, 3D mesh generation, or batch creative automation, but it is a better fit when the source design already exists and the goal is a clean photorealistic presentation image. Teams that want API-driven RENDERCAD workflows can start at RENDERCAD developer documentation.
Screenshot the CAD viewport you already have, render in the browser, and download a client-ready still or video without exports, plugins, or GPU setup.

RENDERCAD uses a maintained selection of image-generation models for different rendering tasks. Results can vary by model and input, so compare generated output with the source design before relying on geometry, materials, or dimensions.

Get StartedCommon questions about RENDERCAD vs Scenario
Yes. Request a golden-hour look and describe the mood or direction you want. The generated warmth, shadows, and light direction can vary between results, so compare important design details with the source image.
Describe an environment such as a sunny forest or urban street and use a reference image when needed. Image renders complete in 60 seconds without building a local scene file or environment map.
RENDERCAD's Create Video workflow generates a video from a single image and provides Camera and Product Motion controls. Videos complete in 2-5 minutes.
RENDERCAD can generate orbit-style motion from a single image using a Camera option. Because the motion is inferred rather than rendered from a complete 3D model, review geometry and hidden-side details before publishing the result.
Usually. Generation runs in the cloud, so it does not occupy a local renderer. Keep the relevant browser workflow available as required, and expect normal network and browser resource use while the job is submitted and results are loaded.
RENDERCAD processes generation in the cloud, so it does not require a dedicated local rendering GPU. You still need a supported browser and internet connection, and normal browser, upload, and download activity can use local device resources.
RENDERCAD avoids much of the scene, shader, and local-renderer setup used by traditional rendering tools. Users still need to prepare a useful source image, choose suitable options, describe the intended result, and review generated details.
RENDERCAD starts at $9/month with credits that refresh monthly - predictable costs with no upfront investment or perpetual license fees.
RENDERCAD is designed to create more polished, realistic-looking presentation images from a source view. Results vary by input and settings, and generated images should be checked against the original model before they are used to communicate exact design details.
RENDERCAD can generate a visual interpretation of a described or referenced material without requiring shader parameters. It does not guarantee physically measured or specification-accurate material behavior, so validate critical color, grain, reflectivity, and finish details against approved references.
Describe the wood species and finish you want, and provide a reference image when scale or grain direction matters. RENDERCAD can generate a wood-like visual treatment, but it does not replace model-level texture mapping or guarantee an exact, repeatable grain pattern.
With RENDERCAD, upload or snip a clear image, describe carbon fiber, and add a material reference when exact visual direction matters. Image renders complete in 60 seconds.
