2D in, photoreal out
Use clean linework to guide a conceptual facade image. Describe the materials and setting, then review generated storeys, openings and rooflines against the original.
RNDRS + AutoCAD
AI rendering from AutoCAD drawing exports
Export an AutoCAD elevation, section or model view as an image. Use Studio to explore materials and atmosphere, then check openings and proportions against your drawing. RNDRS does not read or edit the DWG file.
AI rendering that works from the image you already have — a sketch, a model view, a photo. Ask for the change, keep every version. In the browser, no plugin, no GPU. From $19 a month, or $99 once — credits never expire. 5 free renders. No card. Failed renders are refunded automatically.
Studio is available to everyone. Create an account to get started.

The lines become a photoreal facade with AI
What to consider
Choose the workflow around the image you need to deliver and the control your project requires.
Sections with atmosphere
Explore a sectional visualization with material and light. Keep the original section alongside it so reviewers can distinguish the design information from the generated interpretation.
Iterate without re-drafting
Change material, season or context by editing a sentence, not the drawing. The DWG stays untouched while you explore how the design photographs.
Can AI really render a flat 2D elevation?
Yes. Export the elevation as an image and the AI interprets openings, levels and proportions to produce a photoreal facade. Clean linework with clear openings gives the best results.
What AutoCAD outputs work best?
Elevations and exported 3D views work best. Plot to PNG at 1500px or wider, with linework dark on light. Floor plans are better served by our floor-plan render tool.
Do I need AutoCAD 3D or Civil 3D?
No — plain 2D AutoCAD or even AutoCAD LT output is enough. RNDRS does the leap from drawing to image; you never have to model in 3D.
Will the render respect my drawing's proportions?
AI generation can change geometry or introduce details. Compare the output with your source and verify dimensions separately. The image is a visualization, not measured documentation.
