Real-time ray-traced renderer aimed squarely at architectural visualisation.
Why we recommend it
D5 has taken significant share from Lumion and Enscape by pairing genuine real-time ray tracing with a free tier that is actually usable for client work.
Strengths
- Real-time ray tracing with RTX hardware
- Strong asset and vegetation library
- Capable free tier
Keep in mind
- Windows and NVIDIA only
- Younger product with a smaller community
