1. SIGNUP - Create Your Free GridMarkets Account. Once you create your GridMarkets account,  5 free credits (enough to produce 100 frames at 2 minutes/frame using GM1600) will be added to your new account to trial our service.  These credits expire if unused +14 days from account creation.​ 

2. SETUP - Download/Install Our Render Manager: Envoy. Envoy is used to install the plugins for your modeling software to submit jobs and view & manage your jobs.  Envoy also up/downloads your files - now 20x faster with our recent Envoy improvements.  There's also a mobile-friendly version to view your files and submissions on the go.

​

Envoy download buttons follow as does a "Getting Started Video" (with "Setup Suggestions" at the video's end).

3. SUBMIT - Launch your Render or Simulation to GridMarkets.  See our pages specific to each service, Houdini, Maya, Cinema4D, 3dsMax and Blender for a video on how to submit.
