Monitor Rendering Progress
You can track your rendering jobs in real-time, with a detailed breakdown of each frame status (enqueued, processing, or succeeded).
Important: Pictor AI Core Verification: An essential part of the rendering process is the Pictor AI Core Verification. As part of ensuring quality and correctness, the AI Core system scans each frame to verify whether it has been rendered correctly. This step is essential for generating the Proof of Work, confirming that the rendering job meets your requested rendering requirements.
Review Results
Based on our extensive experience in 3D rendering, we have observed that while 95% of tasks are rendered correctly, there is a 5% chance of inaccuracies. To address this, Pictor employs an additional layer of quality assurance. You can review the render results and confirm which frames are rendered correctly to accept and which frames are rendered incorrectly to request re-rendering.
Download Results
After the rendering job is completed and you have accepted it, you can download the final results directly to your devices.
