Frequently asked questions

What inputs does Sketch to Render accept?

Anything visual — SketchUp screenshots, Rhino viewport captures, Revit exports, hand sketches, site photos, or even napkin drawings. The AI analyzes your input and generates a photorealistic architectural render in the style you choose.

How fast is AI architectural rendering?

About 20 seconds per render. Upload your input, pick a style and view type, and get a publication-quality architectural image. That's roughly 300× faster than a traditional rendering pipeline.

What render styles are available?

8 curated architectural styles: Ando Light (minimal concrete), Zumthor Material (textured realism), Shulman Dusk (dramatic golden hour), and 5 more. Each style controls lighting, material rendering, atmosphere, and camera behavior for architecturally accurate results.

Is Sketch to Render free to try?

Yes. Every account gets 5 free renders on signup — no credit card required. One render uses 1 credit. That gives you enough to test multiple styles across different inputs before deciding on a plan.

How does this compare to V-Ray or Enscape?

Traditional renderers like V-Ray require full 3D models, material libraries, lighting setup, and hours of render time. Sketch to Render works from any 2D input — a sketch, a screenshot, a photo. You go from concept to photorealistic image in seconds, not days. It's not a replacement for final construction docs, but it changes how fast you can explore and present ideas.

Can architecture students use this?

Yes — Sketch to Render is heavily used by architecture students. Get portfolio-ready renders from SketchUp models without needing a V-Ray license or render farm. Educational pricing is available — email daan@gaia.computer with your university affiliation.
