SilpuAI Studio+ turns your SketchUp, ArchiCAD or Revit model — or even a plain screenshot — into a magazine-grade render on the spot. Built by a practising designer, it's tuned for how Sydney actually builds: Federation and Victorian terraces trimmed with iron lacework, Sydney sandstone and face brick, rendered-masonry and fibre-cement additions, and light-filled coastal-modern homes wedged onto tight inner-west and eastern-suburbs blocks. From A$1.50, with no studio queue and nothing to wait on.
Free to try — no card. Then A$1.50 a render, credits never expire.
Drag in a model view — or send it straight from the free SketchUp, ArchiCAD or Revit plugin with one click.
Photoreal, golden hour, dusk, or a concept style. Set the sun, the time of day, the mood — no scene setup.
A magazine-grade render in seconds. Relight, restyle, add interiors or landscape, and download. Priced per render.
A single hero shot for a harbourfront flagship? Worth commissioning. But the concept passes, DA option studies, heritage-context views and listing images — the everyday volume that quietly swallows your week — belong on your own screen, turned around in seconds and reworked as often as you like, at no extra cost.

Generic AI guesses — it swaps rooflines, dreams up balconies and repaints materials it never understood. Studio+ pins geometry and materials to your model instead, so your Federation face brick stays face brick, your Sydney sandstone stays sandstone, your rendered masonry stays rendered, and your fibre-cement clad addition reads as fibre-cement rather than a phantom rebuild. On a Paddington or Balmain block where the terrace next door sits in a heritage conservation area, that accuracy is the difference between a render you can hand to a client, a heritage consultant or the council with your DA — and a pretty picture you can't stand behind.
“Render exactly as modelled” isn't a setting. It's the whole point.
Sydney render studios generally charge A$250–A$900 for a single image, with a three-to-seven-day turnaround and more again for a full set or a rush job. SilpuAI Studio+ is A$1.50 per render, GST included, generated in seconds, and your credits never expire — so a full page of DA options costs a few dollars instead of a few thousand. It's free to try first, no card needed.
It's built to. Studio+ pins geometry and materials to your model, so it renders your terrace parapet, your sandstone, your face brick and your setbacks rather than inventing them the way a generic image tool does. Even so, AI can drift — an eave line or a window head can shift — so always check the render against your drawings before you rely on it for a DA lodgement, a heritage report or a client sign-off.
Seconds. Upload your model or push the view straight from the plugin, pick a look, and generate. Trying a harbour view at dusk or three cladding options is instant — no re-queue, no re-quote, no email chain with a studio.
Free plugins for SketchUp, ArchiCAD and Revit send your view across with one click. You can also drop in any 3D screenshot, a photo of an empty room, or a product shot — no render farm and no scene setup, which matters when a DA deadline on the NSW Planning Portal is bearing down on you.
For a signature hero image on a harbourfront or awards project, a specialist studio can still be worth the fee. For concept passes, DA options, heritage-context views and real-estate listings — the everyday volume — you render them yourself in seconds and keep control of the file.
No card, no studio queue, nothing to wait on. Sign in, upload your model, and watch your terrace, your addition or your harbour home turn photoreal in seconds. A$1.50 a render after that, and your credits never expire.
