01W01 — W15
The 15-week format
Each stage has one job: introduce the trainees, test them as a group, then let the fan vote narrow twelve down to five.
| Week | Stage | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| 1–6 | Reveals | Two trainees are revealed each week, one on Monday and one on Thursday, until all 12 are known. |
| 7 | Group show | All 12 trainees perform together. Nobody is eliminated this week. |
| 8–13 | Eliminations | Every week, the trainee with the fewest votes is eliminated. |
| 13 | Revival | Fans vote to bring one eliminated trainee back into the competition. |
| 14 | Final | Seven finalists compete for five places. Two leave. |
| 15 | Debut | The final five debut as RENDZE's first virtual boy group. |
02VOTE
Voting rules
Voting is free, and the rules are the same for every fan in every country.
- Log in with LINE, Google, X or email.
- One account = one vote per day. Votes reset at 00:00 Thailand time (GMT+7).
- You can vote for a different trainee every day.
- Duplicate and automated accounts are removed, and their votes do not count.
- Votes cannot be bought. A vote that comes with a digital product is a bonus, not a purchase.
03FAIR PLAY
Fairness and transparency
A vote only matters if you can trust the count, so PROJECT RENDER is built to be checked.
Vote receipts
Every vote gets an anonymous receipt code, so you can confirm your vote was counted.
Daily published hash
Each day we publish a cryptographic hash of the full vote file, so the record cannot be changed later without anyone noticing.
Open vote files
Anonymized vote files are released after each elimination for anyone to audit.
No live numbers
Totals stay hidden during the week to avoid bandwagon voting. Results are announced at each elimination.
04RENDER METER
The render meter
Every trainee starts the show 20% rendered. Fan votes unlock their debut readiness step by step, up to 100%.
- 20%Base model: silhouette and three hints
- 40%Voice tuned: first vocal clip unlocked
- 60%Choreography unlocked: first dance practice
- 80%Stage look: styling and outfit revealed
- 100%Debut-ready: final look and full performance
The meter shows progress, not exact vote totals.
How many trainees debut in PROJECT RENDER?
Five. Twelve trainees enter, six are eliminated in weeks 8–13, one returns in the week 13 revival, and the week 14 final takes seven finalists down to five.
How often can I vote?
Once per day per account. Votes reset every day at 00:00 Thailand time (GMT+7).
Can I see live vote counts?
No. Live totals are hidden to keep voting fair. You can check your own vote with its receipt code, and the daily hash and open vote files let anyone audit the result.
What is the revival week?
In week 13, fans vote to bring back one trainee who was already eliminated. That trainee joins the remaining six, making a final of seven.
Can I buy votes?
No. Votes cannot be bought. If a digital product ever includes a vote, that vote is a bonus on top of the product, not a purchase.
