Vizbase

Vizbase turns screenshots of 3D model views from tools like SketchUp, Revit and Rhino into photorealistic renders. Users set materials per element in plain language, with no GPU needed, and export up to 8K. A free tier is available.

Vizbase is a web-based AI rendering tool aimed at architects and interior designers who need client-ready images without setting up a traditional render pipeline. The workflow starts with a screenshot of a 3D model view, taken from SketchUp, Revit, Rhino or any other modeling program, and ends with a photorealistic image. No GPU, lighting rig or render settings are involved, because the processing happens on the service's side. In practice, a user uploads a PNG, JPG or WebP view, optionally masks specific objects or areas, and describes the textures or interior elements wanted for each one in plain language. A render mode is then chosen and the image is generated. Smart auto-masking uses object detection to speed up selection, while smart inpainting lets a designer mark a region and describe a change without redoing the whole image. Outputs can be exported at 4K, 6K or 8K, up to 7,680 pixels on the long edge, and the renders can be used commercially. The per-element material control is what sets the approach apart from generic image generators. A designer can show a client the same living room with different flooring, cabinetry or wall finishes by changing the description for just those surfaces, which suits early design discussions where several options need to be compared quickly. Showcase examples cover residential, commercial and exterior scenes. Pricing is credit-based. A free tier gives 5 credits per month, which the site says covers up to 10 renders, and paid plans start at 29 euros per month for freelancers. Higher tiers add team seats, additional plugins and dedicated support for studios and larger firms. A SketchUp plugin is included from the Starter plan. Within the field, Vizbase sits between full desktop render engines, which offer precise physical control but demand hardware and setup time, and general-purpose AI image tools, which lack awareness of a project's geometry. It fits freelancers and small studios who value speed and presentation-ready visuals over physically exact simulation.
