Archome AI
What Archome AI is
Archome AI creates architectural renders from photos, sketches, floor plans, CAD screenshots, viewport captures and prompts. It runs in a browser and says a render takes about 30 seconds; no GPU or local installation is required. For image-to-image work, its structure lock keeps massing, openings, proportions and camera position fixed while materials, lighting and atmosphere change. Tools include interior and exterior rendering, sketch and plan rendering, masterplans, materials, inpainting, landscapes, detail work, 2D-to-3D, video and upscaling.
Free plugins connect Archome to SketchUp 2021 and newer on Windows and macOS, Rhino 7 and 8 on Windows and macOS, and 3ds Max 2021 and newer on Windows. A public REST API accepts a base64 PNG, tool and prompt, then returns a render URL. API calls use the web app's credit balance; image data is limited to about 10 MB, calls are rate-limited, and the API exposes interior, exterior and sketch_to_render tools. A free trial includes 100 credits for three renders. Paid choices include one-time credit packs and monthly plans, with commercial-use rights included in the listed paid packs and plans.
Who it suits
Archome AI suits architects, designers and property professionals who want to turn visual references or design views into architectural renders. It may also suit teams connecting supported SketchUp, Rhino or 3ds Max versions, or developers using its rendering API.
