Create stunning photorealistic images and videos from any CAD system, real life photo, or even a quick napkin sketch.
60 SECONDS. ZERO CONFIGURATION. STUNNING RESULTS.
Vectary is a browser-based 3D and AR design platform for creating, importing, editing, sharing, embedding, and publishing interactive product visuals.
Vectary is strongest when you need to build, edit, annotate, share, embed, or publish interactive 3D and AR product experiences in the browser. RENDERCAD is the lighter option when the asset already exists as a CAD viewport, product model screenshot, or design review image and the goal is a polished photoreal render, not an interactive web scene. Use Vectary for configurators, hotspots, AR links, and team review; use RENDERCAD for fast visual upgrades, concept variants, and client-ready stills from existing views.
Vectary gives teams a no-code browser workspace for importing models, editing materials and lighting, adding interaction, sharing links, embedding 3D viewers, and publishing AR-ready experiences. That makes it a better fit for product pages, configurators, manuals, and collaborative 3D presentations where the viewer needs to rotate or interact with the model. RENDERCAD does not replace those publishing and scene-authoring tools. It focuses on turning a supplied viewport or product visual into a more photorealistic still render with minimal setup. For teams using Vectary, RENDERCAD can sit earlier or later in the workflow: quickly explore presentation styles from screenshots, improve marketing visuals, or generate stills for proposals without building a full interactive scene.
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.

Get StartedCommon questions about RENDERCAD vs Vectary
Yes. The Seamless Loop option ensures the last frame matches the first for perfect looping - ready for social media, websites, and displays.
RENDERCAD creates videos from a single image in 1-2 minutes using AI. Upload a CAD screenshot, real photo, or hand drawing, select Image to Video, and choose a camera movement - no animation timeline required.
RENDERCAD still-image jobs usually complete in about 10 - 60 seconds. Competing real-time tools may preview quickly, but final output speed still depends on scene complexity, hardware, export settings, and output quality.
Yes. RENDERCAD runs independently as a browser app or overlay, so you continue modeling while renders process in the background.
RENDERCAD works from 2D images. Upload a CAD screenshot, real photo, or hand drawing - no file conversion, no exports, no compatibility issues.
Minimal. RENDERCAD uses natural language prompts anyone can use immediately - no technical sliders, shader graphs, or render settings to learn.
RENDERCAD excels at rapid client presentations. It delivers impressive photorealistic results in seconds, enabling real-time feedback sessions during design reviews.
For product marketing, client presentations, and concept work - yes. The Realistic engine is designed to improve lighting, materials, and presentation quality while keeping the original design recognizable.
Yes. Select the Realistic engine, set Condition to Clean, and type "Brushed Aluminum." The AI applies correct texture orientation to your geometry automatically.
RENDERCAD generates unique, non-repeating grain patterns that follow your object's form. Prompt "Oak Wood" and the engine handles scale, direction, and variation automatically.
RENDERCAD handles studio lighting automatically - select a Gradient or White background for a clean studio look. No manual light placement or HDRI setup needed.
Yes. Add "Golden Hour" to your prompt and the AI handles warm color temperature, long shadows, and soft light automatically.
