Live Inside SketchUp
Rayscaper syncs your model, camera, materials, sun and Skatter objects as you work. Move a wall or change a material and the render follows. No exporting, no second program to learn.
No Gaming GPU Needed
Rayscaper renders on an NVIDIA GPU when you have one and on the CPU when you don't, so it runs on laptops and office PCs. On a Mac it uses the GPU of Apple silicon.
Photoreal Light
A path tracer simulates how light really bounces, for natural shadows, reflections and glow. An AI denoiser removes the grain while the render refines.
Lawns and Gardens
Paint a face with Grass and it grows a lawn of real blades. Scatter plants and rocks from your own components, in the render only, so your model stays light.
Every Scene, Not Just One
Render all your SketchUp scenes in one go, each saved under its own name. Animate between scenes or a Fredo6 Animator clip, or render 360° panoramas.
1,000+ Materials and Skies
Poly Haven materials and HDRI skies and Rayscaper's own material library are built in. Drag a material onto the render or change the mood of a scene in one click.
