What is Archi AI?

expand_more

Archi AI is a serverless web application that transforms CAD architectural drawings and sketches into stunning, high-quality AI-generated renderings. We utilize advanced AI models like Google's Imagen 3 and specialized architecture-tuned models to provide professional visualizations in seconds.

Where can I find my previous renderings?

expand_more

All your renderings are automatically saved in your History page. You can access it via the History icon in the sidebar. The history is divided into "My Renderings" (your personal generations) and "Shared With Me" (content shared with you by others).

How long do renderings typically take?

expand_more
  • Images (1K/2K/4K): Most images are generated within 30 to 60 seconds.
  • Video Generation: Cinematic videos typically take 2 to 5 minutes to complete. You don't need to stay on the page; we'll notify you when it's ready.

bolt Advanced Features

What is "Edit Region" (Masking)?

expand_more

The Mask Editor allows for "Inpainting." If you like a rendering but want to change a specific part (like the roof material), you can paint a "mask" over that area. Provide a new prompt for just that section, and the AI blends the change seamlessly into the rest of the image.

How does the Prompt Builder Wizard work?

expand_more

The Wizard is a step-by-step tool that guides you through selecting building types, materials, lighting, and environments. It then compiles these choices into a professional-grade prompt that AI models can interpret with high precision.
