Eler

Eler is a rendering tool that turns a 3D model into a photorealistic image in about a minute, built for architects and interior designers. It targets professionals who currently wait days for a visualization studio or pay $200 to $500 per image to a third party, letting them render every camera angle themselves instead.

A user uploads a SketchUp, FBX, 3DS or GLB model, or starts from a photo or sketch, then picks camera angles and adds style references or a moodboard before rendering. Eler runs in the browser and processes renders in the cloud, so no GPU, plugin, or local rendering software is needed, and a finished render takes about a minute, after which the user can describe a change in plain language to adjust materials, mood, or lighting.

Eler keeps every angle of a render consistent, so materials match across multiple views of the same model, and edits made in plain words keep the rest of the picture intact. Standard models are used on every plan for 3D-model renders and edits, while Pro and Studio plans can also choose premium models, each of which counts as 3 renders, and every render, on any paid plan, can be used commercially in client presentations and marketing.

Eler has three monthly plans: Starter at $15 for 40 renders and 1 seat, Pro at $39 for 130 renders with access to premium models, and Studio at $99 for 350 renders and 3 seats. A one-time pack of 20 renders costs $9 with no subscription, top-up packs of 50 or 200 renders can be added mid-month, annual billing gives 2 months free, and a 7-day Pro trial with 20 renders is offered in some countries.

Use cases

• Replacing a visualization studio for architecture renders
• Skipping paying $200-500 per image to a third-party renderer
