Frequently Asked Questions

Will the render maintain my sketch's design intent?

Yes, our AI analyzes your sketch to understand design intent, proportions, and key elements. The photorealistic render maintains these aspects while adding realistic materials, lighting, and environmental context. Your design vision is preserved while bringing it to life in a realistic setting.

What types of sketches work best?

Clear, well-defined sketches with visible architectural elements work best. Pencil drawings, pen sketches, or digital concept drawings all work well. The more clearly your design intent is visible in the sketch, the better the AI can capture it in the photorealistic render.

Can I use hand-drawn sketches?

Absolutely! Hand-drawn sketches work perfectly. Simply photograph or scan your sketch and upload. The AI analyzes the drawing to understand design intent and creates a photorealistic render that brings your hand drawing to life while maintaining your design vision.

Is this suitable for client presentations?

Perfect for client presentations! Transforming sketches into photorealistic renders helps clients visualize design concepts in realistic settings. This bridges the gap between concept sketches and reality, making design concepts more tangible and easier to understand.

Can I refine the render after generation?

The initial render captures your sketch's design intent. You can use other tools to refine materials, lighting, or details. Many designers use this as a starting point, then refine details using other tools or by creating more detailed sketches for re-rendering.
