'Using Octane has been at the cornerstone of swatchbook's material visualization for years. Moving to Octane X on macOS Metal has been totally seamless. Integrating OTOY's rendering technology natively on Apple hardware, and empowering hundreds of millions of potential new creators, is a huge step towards realizing this dream - one we've been working on for nearly a decade to make happen here at OTOY.' 'I started OTOY to democratize content creation, imagining that artists might one day render 3D graphics at the same fidelity as Hollywood blockbusters – but on any budget, in real time and from anywhere in the world.

'Like so many Octane artists, I began my journey in computer graphics on the Mac,' said Jules Urbach, CEO of OTOY.
