How to download, install and activate your license

Check the minimum requirements

First, make sure your computer meets the minimum requirements to run RhinoArtisan.

Create your account

Sign up for the free trial at rhinoartisan.com and fill in the form. You get full access to every tool for 15 days, no credit card required.

Download RhinoArtisan

Once your account is created, go to your account. There you’ll find your license key and the Download installer button for the latest release.

RhinoArtisan requires Rhino — if you don’t have it yet, you’ll find a Rhino trial linked from your account too.

Install RhinoArtisan

Locate the installer you just downloaded, open it and follow the on-screen instructions. Close Rhino first if you have it running.

Activate your license

When you buy RhinoArtisan — even for the evaluation — you’ll receive a product key to activate your license. RhinoArtisan has its own license system, and also integrates with Cloud Zoo, Rhino’s license manager. Both are covered in the License page:

License — how to activate

Open RhinoArtisan

The installer leaves two shortcuts on your desktop and in the Windows start menu. Open Rhino 8 to work with the Artisan toolbar inside Rhino, or RhinoArtisan 7.0 to get the dedicated interface with all the panels laid out for jewelry. See Rhino and RhinoArtisan interface for the difference between the two.
