Turn Modo Professional viewport captures into polished render visuals with RENDERCAD.

Foundry Modo 3D modeling, surfacing, animation, lighting, and rendering workflow
Modo Professional users often work through direct and procedural modeling, MeshFusion-style hard-surface forms, UV cleanup, Shader Tree materials, cameras, and Advanced Viewport previews before a scene is ready for a full render pass. RENDERCAD fits the review moment: capture a clean Modo viewport, camera view, product turntable angle, environment blockout, game prop, packaging concept, or architectural study and turn it into a polished render-style image with clearer lighting, material cues, shadows, and presentation context. It is especially useful for existing Modo projects where the model is readable but the team needs client review images, art-direction options, portfolio tests, or marketing drafts without rebuilding the scene in another renderer.
Frame the model in Modo using a camera view, Advanced Viewport, RayGL-style preview, or shaded perspective view that clearly shows the surfaces and silhouette. Capture the viewport after the geometry, material tags, Shader Tree work, and basic composition are in place, then use RENDERCAD to generate a cleaner presentation render. This keeps Modo as the source for modeling, UVs, surfacing, and animation decisions while RENDERCAD handles fast visual options for reviews, pitch images, portfolio updates, and early marketing stills.

It acts as a powerful upscaler. It takes a jagged, low-res CAD screenshot, real photo, or hand drawing and reconstructs it into a sharp, 4K render in 10-60 seconds.
It calculates "Ambient Occlusion" (shadows in cracks) and "Soft Shadows" simultaneously, grounding the object so it doesn't look like it's floating.
Agile teams need speed. The ability to upload or snip an image, prompt, and share keeps the design conversation moving faster than traditional rendering pipelines.
It shifts the workflow from "Computing Physics" to "Describing Intent." It is the natural evolution of how we interact with digital 3D data.
In Realistic mode, click the Reference button below your image to add a reference photo (like real carbon fiber). Add a text instruction describing how to use it, and the AI applies those material properties to your model.
Mask individual components and assign specific color prompts or color reference images to each. Perfect for brand-accurate multi-color products.
Yes. Save successful reference images in organized folders. Over time, you build a personal material and style library for consistent rendering.
Prompt for "Anodized blue aluminum" to get that specific metallic matte sheen often found in consumer electronics.
Instead of fighting exposure sliders, re-render the image in RENDERCAD. The AI automatically balances exposure to ensure your product is bright and visible.
Use RENDERCAD's "Gentle Orbit" camera setting in the Image-to-Video tab. It generates a subtle rotating view from a single static image.
Use RENDERCAD's History page. You can upload CAD screenshots, real photos, or hand drawings from different angles and re-render them one by one using your credit balance.
You must upgrade your plan or wait for your monthly refresh. Choose a plan before rendering.
