# Maquete

> Photorealistic AI architectural rendering for architects and designers. Upload a SketchUp viewport, Archicad or Revit export, and get a DSLR-quality interior or exterior render in ~30 seconds. Engineered for geometry preservation — walls, openings, and proportions stay faithful to the model.

Maquete (also known as Maquete AI or Maquete.ai) is operated from England and Wales. The platform combines a native SketchUp plugin with browser-based rendering, supports interior and exterior architectural scenes, and offers 15+ named lighting presets, material-specific prompting, AI video walkthroughs, and client-sharing project links.
