Three of the batchmates upon graduating from the premier engineering institutes of India, started an XR studio. We started Convrse.ai as a three-man army including Anshul Padyal (CTO), and Vishesh Khatri (CBO) shoulder to shoulder, each bringing their unique expertise to the table.

For almost 6 years we faced Manual 3D Mesh Optimization for real-time deployment as our biggest and most consistent bottleneck. We spent more than 30% of our time manually drawing out meshes.

Since most default decimators in 3DS Max/Blender could not help, we sought to build an intelligent solution ourselves. We launched Convrse.ai later last year.

A brand new approach to an age-old problem of making your 3D projects lightweight. With a laser focus on mesh decimation, we built an intelligent model that had vertex level control and could precisely identify which triangles are important for a model’s shape and which ones can be removed.

This gave magical results with roughly ~3x better shape retention than any generic decimation tools for the same level of reduction. We built a scene-level context understanding on top of it, which allowed users to define target optimization for entire scenes.

Convrse.ai would intelligently distribute the mesh density across all the assets, giving a fairly well-homogenized scene output. 3D creators loved it, to say the least. Over 2,000 of them from 30+ countries have removed over 1 billion triangles from their assets thus far! The intuitive Canva-like workflow for such a boring and difficult problem amazed them.

Over 100 of them shared their appreciation personally with us and followed that with feedback and recommendations that could 10x their productivity boost. We heard diligently.

Moreover, I also introduced Convrse.ai to 170 enterprises and large XR studios personally and got their 3D teams to try it out for a few weeks. The excitement in the calls was infectious and a lot of them introduced us to their friends in other organizations. Each trial was followed up with detailed reports on the projects they ran, the hits and misses, and the roadmap to making this a success in their organization.

The deeper we got into it, the problems became exponentially more complex to solve. What it also meant was that once solved, the impact was also higher. Interestingly what we observed was pur decimation is just 50% of the optimization process.

There are 8 other things that 3D creators do, to bring their scenes to the desired polybudget. Over the last 75 days, we have worked tirelessly to automate all 8 things an artist does manually and evolve convrse.ai into an enterprise-grade tool. Today I am happy to introduce Convrse.ai Pro.
