RNDRS + Archicad

Archicad views without the render queue

CineRender is capable but slow, and deadlines don't wait for photon maps. RNDRS renders an exported Archicad 3D view photorealistically in around eleven seconds — fast enough to show three facade options in this afternoon's client call.

From Archicad to photoreal

01 · Export

Save the 3D window view as an image — white model or basic surfaces

02 · Upload

Drop it onto the RNDRS canvas in your browser

03 · Prompt

"Lime plaster, timber shutters, Mediterranean noon light"

04 · Render

Photoreal image, BIM geometry preserved

Faster than CineRender setup

No surface catalogs, no lamp placement, no render settings dialog. The prompt is the entire setup, and the first result lands before CineRender finishes its first pass.

BIM accuracy, rendered mood

Your Archicad geometry is preserved — our architecture-trained engine dresses it in materials, daylight and landscape. The model stays the single source of truth.

Options without re-modeling

Same view, three prompts: render brick, render plaster, render timber. Compare them side by side on the node canvas and let the client point at the winner.

Frequently asked questions

Does RNDRS need an Archicad add-on?

No add-on. Export your 3D window as a PNG or JPG and upload it to RNDRS in the browser. Works with every Archicad version, on Mac and Windows.

Can I render white-model Archicad views?

Yes — white models are the perfect input. The AI reads the geometry and applies materials from your prompt, so you skip surface mapping entirely.

Will renders match my BIM geometry?

RNDRS preserves the structure of the uploaded view — openings, massing and proportions stay faithful to your model while materials and atmosphere are generated.

Is RNDRS a replacement for CineRender?

For concept iterations, client reviews and most marketing images — yes, and it's dramatically faster. For physically exact lighting studies you can still fall back to CineRender; many practices use both.
