    How Sketch & 3D View works

    1. 01

      Export a view from SketchUp, 3ds Max, Revit or Lumion, or photograph a sketch.

    2. 02

      Upload it and set what your input is: a 3D model view or a sketch.

    3. 03

      Pick the store type, so the right product goes on the fixtures: footwear gets shoes, not bags.

    4. 04

      Choose the render style and how closely to follow your layout. Precise keeps your geometry; Creative treats the view as a guide.

    5. 05

      Set light, people and merchandise, describe the materials, and press Generate.

    Open Sketch & 3D View

    What it costs

    A render costs 25 credits, so you can test two or three finish directions on one view before you commit to a long render.

    Good to know

    A render is an AI image, not a drawing. Small details can move, so compare it with your view before you show a client, especially fixture positions and openings.

    Frequently asked questions

    What formats can I upload?+

    Upload an image of a hand-drawn or digital sketch, or a view exported from SketchUp, 3ds Max, Revit or Lumion.

    How detailed should my sketch be?+

    Even rough sketches work! Just include basic shapes, walls, and furniture placement.

    Can I modify the rendered output?+

    Yes. Describe a change in a sentence and keep refining the result.

    Do I need to be an architect?+

    No! Any sketch style works. Our AI understands hand-drawn lines and rough proportions.

    How many renders can I create?+

    Every render costs credits, and the cost shows before you generate. New accounts start with 50 free credits, no card needed. Paid plans add a monthly credit allowance, commercial use and watermark-free downloads, and you can buy credits once too.
