Ruby Kinglet vs TiaraCAD

Ruby Kinglet is a browser-based AI workbench for jewelry design, product imagery, CAD workflows and storefront customizers. Design tools provide component builders for settings, stones, metals and findings, plus an AI Studio with more than 20 editing tasks. Users can access more than 6,000 community templates, create personal templates and train models on their own jewelry portfolios for use across the platform. Photoshoot tools create product images and video with controls for lighting, angles, scenes and skin tone. STL or 3DM files can be render inputs, with geometry stated to remain exact in resulting imagery. CAD workflows generate and edit STL and 3DM files; supported formats include STL, 3DM, OBJ and GLB. Storefront customizers import from Shopify and are described as compatible with Webflow, Wix and Woo. Plans have monthly usage limits except Studio. Personal costs $7 a month, Professional 35.00 USD and Studio 179.00 USD, with a 14-day trial.

TiaraCAD is jewellery CAD software for designing rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and custom diamond jewellery. It works as a plugin for Rhino, and Rhino 8 is required to evaluate it. The product describes its design approach as “Stone-First,” building metal around a stone and generating only the metal required by the design. Its tools include gem settings, modular design, detailing, and support for multiple open files. Users can import company gem charts, metal density charts, and setting parameters for default use. TiaraCAD can generate a bill of material report for a quotation in one click, and release notes say version 2.6.5 added JewelCAD file import. It is offered for macOS and Windows; the features page says TiaraCAD 2.0 works natively on macOS. A 15-day evaluation is available, with no free plan. Continuous internet access is not required, though license validation needs an internet connection once, or once every 14 days with Cloud Licensing. Listed one-time plans include TiaraCAD 2 for Rhino 8 users at $995, paid once, and TiaraCAD 2 with Rhino 8 Commercial at $1,990, paid once.
