About KeyShot
KeyShot is the first real-time ray-tracing application built on a physically correct render engine, based on scientific research in accurate material representation and global illumination. It addresses the visualization needs of designers, engineers, marketing professionals, photographers and CG specialists — turning 3D digital data into photographic images and animations.
KeyShot Subscription brings all the advanced features you need to create incredible visuals. KeyShot includes:
- Drag and Drop Materials and Lighting
- Create Your Own Materials and Lighting
- Add Product and Studio Variations
- Animate Cameras, Models and Materials
- Render on CPU or GPU in Minutes
Features
Focus on your design, not software
Extremely easy to learn and use to achieve photographic results in minutes, through a simple, workflow-based interface with advanced capabilities for the most experienced render professional.
Present your ideas sooner
Visual speed and agility across the product development process, with the widest 3D file format support for a fluid workflow from concept to final product.
Make it more realistic
Materials go beyond physical appearance, providing scientifically accurate properties for the highest quality visuals — use a preset, an exclusive partner material, or create your own.
Access complete computing power
The power and choice to render on CPU or NVIDIA GPUs, with the capability to scale linearly for unmatched performance.
Workflow Automation
Workflow Automation lets you automate KeyShot workflows via the KeyShot Scripting Console (with a user interface) or Headless Scripting Mode (without one) — automating render output, speeding up product-variation generation, and more.
Load It
KeyShot includes native support for over 30 leading 3D file formats. Free plugins offer one-click loading, while LiveLinking keeps your design in sync across applications — whether it's a small gadget or a massive assembly, using KeyShot means less time loading and more time creating.
Endless Possibilities
KeyShot is used across industries — and beyond — to create the powerful visuals that communicate endless possibilities, from the minute detail in textures to bathing a scene in the perfect lighting.
KeyShot Plugins
Plugins link your CAD software and KeyShot, making use of LiveLinking for a faster workflow — keeping your design in sync across applications as it changes.
