Facetra is an AI-powered jewellery design workflow platform for Indian ateliers. It converts hand sketches into photorealistic renders, multi-view technical sheets, live-gold-rate Bill of Materials, and downloadable 3D meshes (GLB/STL/OBJ/FBX). Built for Jadau, Polki, Kundan, Meenakari, Temple and Rajwadi styles.

Does Facetra replace CAD software like Rhino or MatrixGold?

No. Facetra is a workflow layer that produces the reference material (renders, multi-view sheets, BOM, 3D mesh) a CAD operator uses. Your CAD bench continues to use Rhino, MatrixGold or JewelCAD to retopologize the mesh into a cast-ready model.

What jewellery styles does Facetra support?

Traditional Indian styles: Jadau, Polki, Kundan, Meenakari, Temple, Rajwadi. Modern styles: solitaire, halo, cluster, tennis, cocktail. The rendering vocabulary understands craft terms like chaton, bezel, prong, jaali, nakashi and meena work.

What 3D formats does Facetra export?

GLB (default), STL, OBJ, FBX, USDZ, GLTF and 3MF. Two quality tiers: Standard (25 credits, 4K PBR) and HD (35 credits, native 8K PBR).

How much does Facetra cost?

Credit-based pricing. Studio render 1 credit, multi-view sheet 4 credits, CAD-ready 1 credit, 3D mesh 25-35 credits. Credit packs: Starter ₹1,500 for 100 credits (₹15/credit), Studio ₹7,000 for 500 credits (₹14/credit), Atelier ₹15,600 for 1,300 credits (₹12/credit). New signups get 10 free credits.

Is my design confidential on Facetra?

Yes. Every design lives in a private per-user storage bucket. Nothing is public, nothing is shared with other users, nothing is used to train shared AI models.

AI Render from CAD Image for Jewellery

Upload a Rhino, MatrixGold or JewelCAD screenshot — Facetra returns a photoreal, client-ready jewellery render in 40 seconds. Silhouette-locked to your CAD, fluent in Kundan / Jadau / Polki / Diamond / Temple, and now aware of the difference between a raw production CAD and a render-ready one.

Start rendering — 10 free credits How it works

Every atelier has the same bottleneck: the CAD is done in Rhino / MatrixGold / JewelCAD, but the client wants a photoreal render before they approve manufacture. The traditional path is either (a) a ₹80,000-1,50,000 KeyShot / V-Ray / SolidWorks Visualize licence plus 2-4 hours of a rendering artist's time per piece, or (b) an outsourced render at ₹1,500-4,000 per piece and a 24-72 hour turnaround.

Facetra Render-from-CAD collapses that to 40 seconds and ~₹12 per variant. Upload one to six CAD screenshots (any viewport — perspective, top, front, ISO), pick your style + metal + optional prompt override, and Facetra returns photoreal renders that stay silhouette-faithful to your CAD. The output goes straight to your client's WhatsApp, or into a Facetra multi-view sheet + BOM + CAD-ready kit if you want to close the loop end-to-end.

What is AI render-from-CAD for jewellery?

AI render-from-CAD is a workflow that converts a screenshot of your jewellery CAD file (from Rhino, MatrixGold, JewelCAD, Matrix, ZBrush, or any 3D viewer) into a photoreal client-ready render. Unlike KeyShot / V-Ray / SolidWorks Visualize (which require you to import the STL, apply materials manually, set up lighting, wait for a 20-40 minute path-traced bake, and cost a licence), an AI render-from-CAD tool works from the 2D screenshot directly, applies style-aware materials from a prompt, and returns the render in under a minute. Facetra is the only such tool built specifically for Indian and modern jewellery vocabulary — it understands Kundan chatons, Polki foil-backing, meenakari reverse, temple nakashi and modern diamond setting geometry.

What Facetra Render-from-CAD delivers

Silhouette lock — the render matches your CAD outline pixel-faithfully. No proportion drift, no invented details, no deleted features.
Style-aware prompts — Kundan / Jadau / Polki / Diamond / Temple / Meenakari / Antique / Rajwadi / Bridal / Lightweight / Modern Fusion, each with its own tuned material vocabulary.
Metal control — 22kt / 18kt yellow, rose or white gold, platinum, palladium, silver (each renders with karat-accurate warmth).
Rhodium-white prong auto-applied on every diamond seat (regardless of body metal colour) — the industry-standard finish generic AI tools miss.
Production-CAD vs Render-Ready toggle (Diamond only) — trims tall prong tips and bezel walls to finished-product height when your CAD is a raw casting file. Prong tips finish smooth-polished with a small overlap onto the diamond crown.
Batch mode — upload up to 6 CADs at once, choose grouping (separate images or sibling variations of one piece).
Free-form prompt override — add e.g. "heavier meenakari reverse", "emerald centre instead of ruby", "warm golden hour light" to layer on top of the style preset.
Downstream: the finished render feeds directly into Multi-View Sheet + CAD-Ready + BOM + 3D Mesh — one CAD upload becomes a full client CAD kit.

The Facetra workflow (six steps, one afternoon)

Take a screenshot from your CAD software (any viewport — Rhino perspective, MatrixGold ISO, JewelCAD top, ZBrush turntable frame).
Open Facetra Studio → Render from CAD → upload up to 6 CAD images.
Pick style (Diamond / Kundan / Jadau / Polki / Temple / Meenakari / …) and metal (22kt yellow / 18kt white / platinum / …).
For a Diamond render, pick CAD file type — Render-Ready (default) or Production (trims tall prongs + bezel walls to finished-product height with smoothed, overlapping tip caps).
Optional: add a free-form prompt override (e.g. "heavier meenakari reverse").
Hit Render — 40 seconds later, download the photoreal renders or send them to the Multi-View + BOM + CAD-Ready + 3D Mesh pipeline.

Frequently asked questions

What CAD software does Facetra Render-from-CAD work with?

Any CAD viewer that can produce a screenshot — Rhino, MatrixGold, JewelCAD, Matrix (Gemvision), ZBrush, Fusion 360, SolidWorks, KeyShot's viewport, even a screen-recorded frame from a turntable video. Facetra works from the 2D screenshot, not the underlying 3D file, so there is no import / plugin step and no format compatibility risk.

How is this different from KeyShot, V-Ray or SolidWorks Visualize?

KeyShot / V-Ray / SolidWorks Visualize are full path-traced rendering engines — you import the STL, hand-assign materials, position lights, and wait 20-40 minutes for a bake. Each licence costs ₹80,000-1,50,000. Facetra is an AI render that reads your 2D CAD screenshot and returns a photoreal image in 40 seconds at ~₹12 per variant. It won't replace KeyShot for a museum catalogue where physical accuracy of every reflection matters, but it eclipses KeyShot for the 95% use case: a client-approval render for a WhatsApp thread the same afternoon.

What if my CAD is a raw production file with tall prong tips?

For Diamond style, pick the CAD file type as Production CAD before rendering. Facetra's prompt engine will trim the extra-tall prong tips to finished-product height, cap them with a small mirror-polished overhang onto the diamond crown, and reduce over-tall bezel walls to sit at the girdle — exactly what the goldsmith does at the finishing bench in real life. For non-Diamond styles (Kundan / Jadau / etc.), the toggle is hidden because those settings don't use prongs.

Will the render change the silhouette of my CAD?

No. The prompt engine enforces a STRICT GEOMETRY LOCK — silhouette, shank, halo, gallery, side stones, prong count, prong position, prong thickness all stay pixel-faithful to your CAD outline. Only the material appearance (metal warmth, stone brilliance, backdrop, lighting) and the finishing pass (production-CAD trim, if selected) change.

How much does a Render-from-CAD render cost?

1 credit per output image (~₹12 at the Atelier pack rate of ₹15,600 for 1,300 credits, or ₹15/credit on the Starter pack). Batch of 6 CADs with 3 variants each = 18 credits ≈ ₹216. New signups get 10 free credits which is enough for a full CAD test drive.

Can I chain the render into a full CAD kit for my client?

Yes. After the render finishes, hit Multi-View Sheet (4 credits) for silhouette-locked 0°/45°/90°/180° views, then CAD-Ready (1 credit) for a bare-metal casting reference, then BOM (1 credit) for a live-rate cost sheet, then 3D Mesh (15 Standard / 25 HD) if you want GLB / STL / OBJ / FBX / USDZ for retopology in Rhino or MatrixGold. Full CAD kit: ~22 credits Standard (~₹264) or ~32 credits HD (~₹384).

Does it handle multi-CAD sets like a bridal necklace + earring + tikka?

Yes. Upload up to 6 CADs in one submission. Pick grouping = "separate" for independent renders (each CAD gets its own variants) or "siblings" for coordinated visual treatment across the set (matched lighting, backdrop and metal-colour balance).
