Private beta · The render system for architects
Render. Compare. Approve.
Tell Ply what to change and what to keep. On a Verified Render, Vel reviews the result against your approved image, and every completed render comes with a signed receipt.
Invite-only. In your browser, nothing to install.
The protected layer, on the included example
The approved image. The included pavilion, rendered by Plyvel from its model at day. Every render of this view starts from it.
The included pavilion, rendered by Plyvel from its model; its numbers are its own measured checks. Not a client project. A rendered or edited image of an architect’s design; not a photograph; not a certification of the built work.
Ply creates. Vel verifies.
You stay the owner of the design: you choose what to change and what to keep, and you decide what happens when Vel cannot decide.
- 01
Ask Ply
Describe the change in plain architectural words: what to change, where, and what to keep.
- 02
Ply creates
Ply, the render agent, makes the render from your approved image and the elements you protected.
- 03
Vel verifies
Vel, the reviewer, compares the result with your approved image and your request. It does not edit the image.
- PASSVEL VERIFIEDIts defined checks passed.
- FIXPly correctsPly corrects it against the approved source, and Vel reviews again.
- UNCERTAINYou decideVel could not decide, and says so.

- Email sign-in
- Projects and views
- Uploads
- Render requests
- Signed receipts
Still being finished
- Ply’s render engine
- Vel’s review
Until they land, a render in the beta returns your source image unchanged, and Vel is a stand-in reviewer that answers from a fixed script: its decisions there say nothing about the image. Credits there are test credits.
What stayed protected?
On a Verified Render, Vel checks the elements you kept against your approved image. Its checks are visual, not measurements.
Camera
The viewpoint and the framing of your approved image.
Massing
The volumes of the building, as designed.
Openings
Windows and doors: their size and their place.
The requested change
That the change you asked for was made, where you asked.
Artifacts
Faults the render itself added, such as a smear or a repeated detail.
Protected regions
PROVISIONAL. Mark an area to keep on the approved source: the request and the receipt record it, but Vel does not check regions yet.
A receipt, not a certificate.
A record of what changed.
Every completed render comes with a signed Render Receipt: the request, what you kept, what Vel found and the file delivered. Anyone can check that it has not been changed.
This receipt records Plyvel’s visual checks. It is not structural, engineering, building-code, construction, or dimensional certification.

† Eligible new users can receive 30 one-time promotional credits. No card required. Offered only while the promotion is on, once per eligible new account, under Plyvel’s anti-abuse policy; a new email address does not mean another grant.
Private by default.
- Sources, references and results are kept in private storage. In the app, only members of your workspace can open them.
- Each image opens through a signed link that expires after a few minutes. Upload links work once.
- Plyvel trains no AI model on your projects.
- Export a project with every file and receipt. A deleted project’s files are erased after a recovery window, and you can ask to delete your account.
Need a check today?
A hand-run CHECK compares your render with its reference image, on the founder’s computer in Iraq. A studio’s first CHECK job is free for up to 3 pairs; further pairs are quoted per pair.
Render with control.
Apply for the beta with your own project. Ply makes the change, and Vel checks what should stay untouched.
Questions
By invitation. Apply with a few lines about your work; an invited account signs in with an email link. Buying credits is not open yet: credits are added by Plyvel during the beta.
Email sign-in, projects and views, uploads, render requests and signed receipts. Ply’s render engine and Vel’s review are still being finished: until they land, a render returns your source image unchanged, and Vel is a stand-in reviewer that answers from a fixed script.
Ply makes only the change you ask for, from your approved image, and the elements you keep are written on the receipt. On a Verified Render, Vel checks them. Protection is a request and a check, not a promise: compare the result yourself before you use it.
No. This receipt records Plyvel’s visual checks. It is not structural, engineering, building-code, construction, or dimensional certification.
In private storage. In the app, only members of your workspace can open them, each through a signed link that expires after a few minutes.
A separate service, available today: your render compared with its reference image, on the founder’s computer in Iraq, with a receipt that states what was measured and what was not. A studio’s first CHECK job is free for up to 3 pairs.
