What Chaos Envision is

Chaos Envision is an architectural visualization tool for architects and archviz specialists creating real-time 3D assemblies, immersive experiences, photorealistic output, and animations. It handles scenes with trillions of polygons in real time and provides ray tracing for real-time and offline output. Users can make unlimited variations of adjustable objects, materials, lights, and assets. Animation tools cover cameras, vegetation, wind, crowds, traffic, proximity, and environmental effects. Envision loads .vrscene files and supports workflows from Enscape, V-Ray, Corona, Revit, SketchUp, and Rhino. Chaos Cosmos integration provides up to 12,000+ ready-to-use 3D assets, with availability varying by Solo and Collection versions. Chaos Cloud supports sharing, communication, design reviews, and interactive virtual tours. A 14-day trial is available, but there is no free plan. The Enscape Collection costs $60.90 a year, billed as one license annually at $730.80, excluding taxes. Professional use only is permitted. Envision requires Windows 10 version 10.0.19041 or newer, at least 8 GB of GPU VRAM, and a DXR-compatible discrete GPU.
