Trezi FAQs

Find answers to your questions on Trezi or VR

Is there a Trezi SDK?

Yes- it includes the Trezi C API, full documentation and example projects. It is currently available for Windows. Contact support@trezi.com for more information.

The Trezi Update is not downloading/taking a long time.

Issue: The Trezi Launcher performed a background auto-update then proceeded to download the Trezi software. During the download of the software the download stops or hangs.

Cause: The Trezi Launcher is built to stay up-to-date automatically to ensure that product software, updates, and fixes may be downloaded and available for the user to install / apply. The downloads are managed by the Trezi Launcher to ensure any Internet connection issues are silently handled. However, this is not always the case.

Solution: When the download does become stalled, using the Pause / Resume button will trigger the Trezi Launcher to stop and restart its Internet connection. Typically this will resolve the stalled download and it will continue. As well, the user may cancel the download until a more convenient time.

The Trezi Software may still be used while the download is happening and should not be affected. Go to the Folder icon on the left of the Trezi Launcher to Create or Open and existing Work Space.

Is the trial really free?

Yes! You don’t need a credit card to start a trial, just a valid email account.

How does the 14-day free trial work?

Click the Get Started button for the Free Trial on this page and follow the directions to setup your Trezi account and download the software. During your trial, you’ll have access to the complete product without restrictions.

My trial is about to end – how do I continue using the software?

At any point during your free trial, you will have the ability to subscribe to an annual or monthly subscription of Trezi. To subscribe, simply log into your account, select the subscription plan you want and follow the prompts to set up your billing information.

Can multiple users in my firm share a Trezi subscription?

No. Each Trezi subscription is assigned to a single user. Therefore, if you have 5 members of your firm for whom you wish to use Trezi, then you will need to purchase 5 subscriptions.

How do I cancel my subscription?

For complete instructions and information, refer to the Pricing & Cancellation Policy.

How much training will I require to learn Trezi?

New users will typically require a couple of hours to get used to being in a VR environment and become familiar with the Trezi UI and navigation. Users with prior VR experience should be up and running within an hour.

Do I need a dedicated space to install the VR hardware and set-up?

For the best VR experience, we recommend a clear space of 8’ x 8’. Base stations need to have a clear line of sight to each other. Avoid any shiny surfaces in front of the base stations. Users risk bumping into any furniture in the space with the VR headset on. Other devices that use IR (e.g. remotes) may not work when the base stations are on.

Will SmartVizX procure the VR system for me?

Testimonials

Physical catalogs and mockups; multiple customer iterations; last minute changes and requests - we have long endured these pain-points and still continue to. A virtual reality product like Trezi has helped us move towards being sustainable and in controlling costs which arise due to multiple and distributed stakeholder. We can now virtually decide what works and prevent real, cost-inducing errors

Praveen Rawal Managing Director, India, Singapore and SEA. Steelcase Bangalore, India

From my internal team to my customers, everyone totally believes that this is how designs have to be developed and reviewed. From pitches to design development, we have replaced all static visualization with Trezi. We now aim to extend Trezi’s application to vendors and suppliers we work with. Product selection will benefit immensely from Trezi.

Bhupendra Kumar Founder and CEO, Aeforia Architects New Delhi

We have been working with SmartVizX team on early access preview of Trezi to assess the product’s applicability beyond the design phase, in the construction process. The potential here is immense.

Asheesh Bajaj Project Manager, Hensel Phelps Austin

3D is a big part of my design thinking. While I find it easy to think in three dimensions, my customers do not necessarily have that ability. I do not blame them, they are not trained design minds. For long, I have been looking for a design product that can help me make my customers and suppliers walk and experience the design and environment I have generated. With Trezi I finally have what I have been looking for.

Sombat Ngamchalermsak Co-Founder Paperspace Asia Bangkok

I undertake projects the world over, from India to Europe, Africa and North America. I have been consistently looking for a common vocabulary to present my design thoughts to my clients from different parts of the world. After trying out multiple design visualization tools to help achieve this, I must say that Trezi is the product that is helping me finally get there.

Pranav Iyer Design Principal, Ground 11 Architects Pune

With Trezi, we no longer need to carry sheets and sheets of paper for a design review with our clients. All the sheets of paper do not ensure that clients fully understand the changes and the associated impact. Helping clients, engineering services consultants and building product manufacturers walk through and experience the proposed design in Trezi reduces many errors that typically creep later into construction.

Kulin Kapadia Founder, Alcove Design Consultants Mumbai

I am no longer explaining to my team what I want in a design. Before Trezi, I would ask my team members to build physical models to show what we wanted our customers to experience. But no more. Now, we build real-scale models for ourselves and our clients. And now, there are no errors in design when I say to the team ‘move the pergola further back and see how it feels’. We now experience it accurately, first-hand.

Prashant Kumar Founder, Studio One New Delhi

Virtual reality has become one of the most exciting new technologies. As a leading multinational office furniture manufacturer, we have been searching for virtual product simulation tools that allow customers to acquire deeper product information, reduce our mockup turnaround time and improve our marketing and sales efforts. With Trezi, we achieve all of that. Not only do our customers get to access our products and visualize them in the context of their proposed design, we are also able to provide product information in VR without the need of unnecessary physical mockups.
