Every custom jeweler knows the pain: you have a beautiful CAD model, but your client needs to see a photorealistic render to feel confident. Traditional rendering software costs hundreds per month and requires specialized skills. Not anymore.

HeyGema's CAD-to-Render tool is 100% free, runs in your browser, and produces photorealistic jewelry renders in seconds. No software to install, no rendering skills required.
How It Works
- 1Screenshot your CAD model — Just take a quick screenshot of your 3D model in whatever software you use (Rhino, MatrixGold, CounterSketch, etc.)
- 2Upload and choose specs — Select metal type, main stone, and side stones. Add custom prompts for milgrain, specific cuts, or finishes
- 3Generate and download — AI creates a photorealistic image in seconds, ready to send to your client
