Show buyers what the configured product actually looks like

The same rules that validate a configuration also drive 2D and 3D views. Sales, dealers, and buyers see the product update with each option, and the same visuals can embed in quote PDFs without a separate design pass.

Real projects

Visual quality from real projects

Automotive configurators, industrial machinery, building products, and kitchen manufacturing, all driven by the same CPQ configuration state.

What you get

Visual output from every configuration

Selections, rules, and materials feed one visual model. Buyers see the configured product; sellers use the same view in the session and in outbound documents.

Real-time 3D views

3D models update as options, sizes, materials, and accessories change in the configurator.

Immediate visual feedback

Each selection updates the view in the session, without page reloads or offline render jobs.

Materials and finishes

Surface materials, colours, and textures reflect the configured specification, not a generic catalogue shot.

Multi-angle inspection

Rotate, zoom, and inspect the configured product before the quote is sent.

On-site AR preview

Where it fits the product, buyers can place the configuration in their environment via tablet or mobile AR.

Quote and proposal embeds

Configured visuals can embed in PDF quotes, proposals, and shareable links from the same configuration state.

Where visuals help

Three places visuals reduce friction

Industrial buyers often approve capital equipment they have never touched. Visuals turn option codes into something the procurement team can review without calling engineering.

Buyer review

Procurement and project teams can compare options visually instead of decoding BOM lines and spec tables alone.

  • Options shown in context
  • Same view in quote PDF
  • Fewer post-quote clarifications

Complex option sets

Long attribute lists are hard to sell on paper. Visuals show how combinations change size, layout, or finish.

  • Multi-option products
  • Dealer and direct sales
  • Self-service where enabled

Field and remote sales

Share a configured view on site, in a video call, or inside the proposal document.

  • Shareable configuration links
  • AR where supported
  • CRM and portal embeds

How it works

Visuals tied to CPQ rules, not a separate tool

Mercura renders from the configured product state. When rules hide an option or swap a component, the visual follows.

01

Live updates in the session

Each valid selection refreshes the 2D or 3D view so the buyer sees the consequence of the choice immediately.

02

Manufacturing-grade detail

Materials, finishes, and assembly context reflect the configured BOM, not a marketing render disconnected from the quote.

03

On-site AR where it applies

For equipment and building products, buyers can preview fit in their space via tablet or mobile.

04

Same view in the document

Configured screenshots and renders can flow into quote PDFs and proposals without manual export from another system.

Visual pipeline

From configuration to every channel

One configured product state powers the web configurator, sales portal, quote PDF, and AR experiences. When rules change the BOM, the visual follows.

What changes when buyers see the configuration

Visual CPQ does not replace technical validation. It reduces misunderstandings between sales, buyer, and engineering about what was quoted.

01

Clearer buyer sign-off

Project and procurement teams review a configured view alongside price and BOM, not option codes alone.

02

Less rework after the quote

Shared visuals cut the back-and-forth when buyers assumed a different layout, finish, or scope.

03

One visual source in every channel

Web configurator, dealer portal, and quote PDF can show the same configured product state.
