Gendo

What is Gendo?

Gendo is an AI design canvas built for architects and architectural visualisation studios. You bring a sketch, a model export or a text description, and Gendo renders it, with dedicated tools for changing materials in a selected region, transferring styles, adding people, enhancing quality and upscaling to 2x or 4x. A chat-based assistant edits the scene from plain requests such as changing the time of day or the cladding while the geometry stays fixed, and parallel rendering produces several variations at once. Projects live on a shared canvas with history, team roles and private by default workspaces on paid plans, and Studio adds a commercial licence and no watermark. Video generation is sold by the second through packs. The Free plan costs £0 and includes a watermark; Studio is £66 a month billed annually, Studio Scale is £299 a month, and Enterprise pricing is custom.

Use cases

Why use Gendo
