JANCTION Render is a Model Context Protocol server whose tools render Blender on JANCTION GPUs. It complements Blender MCP servers that edit a scene inside a running Blender: those need Blender and a GPU on your machine, this one needs neither. Remote URL: https://render.janction.jp/mcp. Each new key starts with a welcome credit of up to 500 JPY (100 JPY with no card, 400 JPY more after registering a card, which is not charged) (14 days); after that, previews stay free up to 2 GPU-minutes a day and finals cost 0.1 JPY per GPU-second.

What it does From an AI app over MCP: the bpy script the AI wrote, or your own .blend or 3D file, rendered on a cloud GPU. Preview, fix, estimate, then the final. The price is shown before rendering, and a paid render starts only after you approve it. Without a connector, let the AI write the script and paste it at /start.
What it does not do Not a tool for editing 3D inside that app (a local Blender is driven by a separate MCP such as blender-mcp). Until it is connected and authenticated, the AI cannot render.

Browser only; no connector or CLI needed. A 100 JPY welcome credit for a new key (14 days, no card; one per network every 30 days, further keys on the same network share what is left), and 400 JPY more for saving a card that is not charged (once per card); after that, previews stay free up to 2 GPU-minutes a day and finals cost 0.1 JPY per GPU-second.
Most Blender MCP servers (BlenderMCP and others) connect an agent to a Blender running on your machine so it can build and edit a scene. Rendering still happens on your machine. JANCTION Render is the other half: it renders. Use both together: build the scene with a local Blender MCP or a bpy script, render it here.

Scenes are sent as scene_script (bpy code as text), scene_url (https link to a .blend, .py or 3D file) or scene_id; results are an inline image plus links valid 24 hours (fresh links on request while the files are kept, 7 days, normally, for keys that have paid 500 JPY or more in total). For Claude.ai, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor.uvx --from janction-render janction-render-mcp. Reads local files and saves results next to your project. For Claude Code, Codex and other terminal agents.| tool | what |
|---|---|
| scene_info | read the scene without rendering: cameras, frame range, resolution, objects, missing files |
| render_preview | fast preview, 1-4 frames tiled in one image (720p budget), returned inline |
| render_estimate | how long it will take and whether it fits the free GPU time left (the welcome credit while it lasts, then up to 2 preview GPU-minutes a day), before rendering |
| render_final | final frames (PNG / EXR) or a video (MP4 / WebM / ProRes), rendered in chunks, with a time estimate |
| render_status / render_download / render_cancel | progress and remaining time, files or links, cancel |
| billing / render_info | the free GPU time left (the welcome credit while it lasts, then up to 2 preview GPU-minutes a day) and credit; workers online, queue, supported inputs and environment presets |
| render_share / render_unshare | public page for a finished render (/r/<id>), or take it down; listed=true asks for the gallery |
| asset_search | CC0 models, textures and HDRIs from Poly Haven by name ('polyhaven:<id>' in asset_urls) |
Read-only tools carry readOnlyHint; only render_cancel is destructive. Every tool has a title and a description that says when to use it.

The GitHub repository is also a plugin marketplace for Claude Code and Codex (/plugin marketplace add JasmyLab-JANCTION/janction-render).
Pricing (since 2026-10-08): Each new key gets 100 JPY of GPU time free with no card (1,000 GPU-seconds, 14 days) for previews and finals, and 400 JPY more once a card is saved on a Stripe page that charges nothing (once per card): up to 500 JPY in all. After it is used up or expires, previews are free up to 2 GPU-minutes per key per day and final renders are paid from prepaid credit at 0.1 JPY per GPU-second. Top-ups (paid) start at 100 JPY. The first top-up during the 14-day welcome period counts 1.5x, with the bonus capped at 500 JPY (100 JPY buys 150 JPY of credit). Top-ups of 2,000 JPY or more get 10 to 20% extra (not combined with the first-top-up bonus; the larger one applies). Top-up bonuses are separate from the welcome credit and the card-saving credit. Payment is on a Stripe Checkout page. One full welcome credit per network every 30 days; further keys from the same network use what is left of that network's credit. A job without enough credit gets HTTP 402 payment_required with a checkout_url. Final renders go up to 3,000 frames per instruction (automatically split internally under one job id), 1080p (1920x1080) on free time and up to 4K (3840x2160) on prepaid credit. The free preview time resets at 00:00 UTC (09:00 JST). No sign-up: connecting creates a key. Inputs and results are deleted 24 hours after last use (normally 7 days for keys that have paid 500 JPY or more in total) and never used for training.
No. BlenderMCP (ahujasid/blender-mcp) lets an agent control a Blender running on your computer. JANCTION Render renders scenes on JANCTION's GPUs. They work well together.
Pressing Connect in Claude.ai or ChatGPT opens a consent page that creates a free key for you. Claude Code and Cursor can also send an existing key as a Bearer token.
