Fast rendering for Blender
Start by uploading a .blend file.

“I'm glad you guys seem to be taking the approach of making something simple that works really well, and adding features slowly.
I love being able to rely on Blendergrid to 'just work' when I need it to.”
“Yeah! I’ve been really enjoying Blendergrid! I thought about buying a massive expensive PC for my rendering... but why? This is faster and maybe even more cost effective.”
“I’ve been using Blendergrid for a few years now. You have by far the ugliest interface among render farms, but you provide the simplest and best results ;) I don't know why, but with other render farms, there are always problems, and the render results never match my file. With you, I've never had these issues. So in short: I'm super happy with you :)”
“Without a shadow of a doubt the best render farm I've ever used. The customer support has been absolutely incredible, and they've gone above and beyond to help me with every single question I've had. Not only an amazing render farm, but also quite clearly run by incredible people!”
“We use the Cycles render engine through Blendergrid. The dynamic price quote is what I love the most. Everything is almost real-time. We are working on our original content and will definitely need services from Blendergrid again.”
“I have tried other Render Farms in the past and Blendergrid is by far the easiest to use and the price was amazing! Blendergrid also provided a helpful, friendly and prompt customer service. Since Blendergrid ran my entire render my computer was free to work on other projects. I am very excited to upload more Blender projects in the near future. Thank you, I highly recommend your service to others. Keep up the amazing work!”
“I'm in love with Blendergrid right now. The other day, I tried out another rendering farm (a Blender-focused competitor to Blendergrid). I rendered two angles of the same model - one with Blendergrid and one with this competitor (was it Render Avenue? Boulevard? I can't remember ;p). I got my render back from Blendergrid about 10 times faster and 5 times cheaper than the competitor, and the whole process was way easier with Blendergrid. Keep it up. You're a king in the marketplace.”
“Tonight I submitted two renders and (without my knowledge) I had appended an unwanted node-string in the compositor, which ruined my renders. I emailed support - not expecting any reply at least until morning - and within minutes Richard replied. Minutes later he had found a way to stitch together pre-composited snippets, which he transferred immediately, saving my skin. This goes well past my experience of other cloud rendering services and exceeded all my expectations. Thank you for humanity and a wonderful service!”
“The process was quite smooth and clear - it doesn't cause any special limitations to our creativity. Moreover, it is very important to get excellent hi-res frames during the process. In 3D productions you're never 100% sure about the final results until you see it fully rendered. And we also experienced a good level of assistance and care of our demands. After going through this process will this be something you plan on continuing to do in the future.”
“After testing Blendergrid for the first time I have to say that it met all of my expectations. The price was reasonable and my 3D animation was rendered very quickly (in less than five hours). Had I used my personal computer, it would have taken several days. Thumbs up! I'll be back!”
“Thank you so much! I can't tell you how much of a lifesaver this has been for us! Our computers wouldn’t have been able to handle this many frames in the amount of time we had. Your farm was fast and affordable, and next time we have a project this big, I think we’ll probably use your service again instead of trying to scramble to get things done. Thank you again!”
“Blendergrid really saved my neck recently. I had to release a YouTube video with the deadline of 24 hours and when I began rendering my 3D models only then did I realize it would have taken 5 days to render. I did a lot of research and it seemed blendergrid was the best option out there. 2 hours later I had four completed 3D animations and I could finally stop sweating. Highly recommended!”
Frequently asked questions
Have a different question? Check out our entire FAQ page.
- What's the maximum file size I can upload?
- The current limit is 5 TB (with a capital T) which should be plenty. But if you have trouble uploading, you can always share the file with us in a different way. Please contact us if you need help getting a large file uploaded.
- Can I upload multiple Blender projects at once?
- Yes, all .blend files you upload, whether they are in a .zip file, or uploaded as a folder, can be turned into render projects.
- How does pricing work?
- After you upload your Blender project at the start page and click "calculate price", we run some benchmarks. Based on the complexity of the scene, resolution, samples, number of frames, we send you an exact price quote.
- Can I do a test render first?
- Yes, we automatically do a few test renders for you when you create a price quote for your project. These test renders are typically done at a lower resolution and lower Cycles samples to speed them up. If you want to render a specific frame or at higher resolution, you can duplicate your project, change the settings, and render it the usual way.
