A CALCULATION YOU CAN DEFEND
Compare complete processes, not render minutes alone.
True production cost includes scene preparation, materials, variants, error review and rework. This tool turns every stage into hours so you can validate the estimate with a real model.
Count the volume
Use the real product and deliverable count from your next project.
Measure the process
Include preparation, rendering, corrections and export time.
Run a benchmark
Test the same model and acceptance criteria in both workflows.
FAQ
How to read the result.
Which costs are included?
The estimate uses setup time per model, time per image and hourly labour cost. Licences and hardware are excluded, so you can add them separately when relevant.
Are the Neexis timings guaranteed?
No. The starting values are editable assumptions. The correct decision method is to benchmark one simple file and one difficult file against the same quality bar.
Can I compare KeyShot, Blender or CAD rendering?
Yes. The current workflow can represent KeyShot, Blender, V-Ray, Visualize, Inventor Studio or an external rendering service.
