For jewelry designers, the creative process doesn't end when the CAD model is finished. A new journey begins: presenting that digital file in a way that does justice to the design and convinces a client. Historically, this has been a slow, multi-step process involving different software and technical expertise.
The Old Workflow: A Tale of Friction
- Export & Prep: Export your model from Rhino or Matrix, often requiring cleanup and format conversion.
- Import & Re-Materialize: Import into a rendering program like Keyshot. Re-apply all your materials from scratch, trying to match the look of real-world metals and gems.
- Render & Wait: Set up lighting, select a camera angle, and begin the rendering process, which can take hours for a single high-resolution image.
- Repeat: Need a different angle? A different metal? A small design tweak? Go back to step one.
This friction-filled workflow stifles creativity and slows down sales.
The Vanilla Workflow: Fluid and Instantaneous
Our platform re-imagines this entire process to be a fluid, single-session experience entirely within your browser.
- Import: Drag and drop your native
.3dm,.glb, or other model file directly into the Vanilla editor. - Art Direct with AI: Use natural language to apply materials from our expert-curated library. Tell the AI, "Make the center stone a 2-carat emerald and the band 18-karat brushed yellow gold."
- Stage: Adjust the real-time, dynamic lighting to get the perfect reflections. Add post-processing effects like depth-of-field to create a cinematic look.
- Publish: Click one button. Your scene is optimized, packaged, and published to a secure, shareable link. That's it.
The result is a fully interactive experience you can send to a client in minutes, not days. This isn't just a faster workflow; it's a new way to design, present, and sell your work.
