SketchUp / Rhino / Blender

ZirenAI: block out the massing, array the seating, sort out the layers and assign the materials inside the SketchUp or Rhino file you already have open

It works in the model you already have open. No export, no download, no merge. It installs each plug-in and runtime itself, and re-checks the connection before every run.

It finds the SketchUp, Rhino and Blender on your machine and sets each one up — one click per application.

What it does

Four jobs, and what each one costs you in time.

Not "faster and smarter". Four specific jobs, each with a number you can hold us to.

Floor plan to massing

One floor plan, massing with openings, [4] minutes

Drop in a PDF, a photo or a CAD export and tell it the floor height. It reads the wall lines, cuts the door and window openings, and groups the result against your tag standard.

The most-used workflow, and the one we tune hardest

Arraying

120 seats laid out in [1] minute

Seating, lighting, planting, façade panels. Give it the spacing and the grid; every item comes back as its own component, not a flattened mesh.

Work where being 80% right is still useful — exactly what should be handed over

Layer cleanup

Someone else's file, on your office standard, [10] minutes

Regroup, rename and clear stray geometry against your practice's naming rules. Store the standard once and every file after it gets the same treatment.

The job nobody wants, that takes longest, and that a machine will not get bored doing

Materials

A whole apartment, [2] minutes

Floors, walls and ceilings assigned by room type. Change your mind later — "make the main bedroom floor oak" — and it touches only the faces that should change.

The difference

Cloud tools hand you a new file. We edit yours.

Every AI modeler built on a cloud session has the same last step: you download a fresh file and merge it into the project you were actually working on. That step is where the time goes.

A cloud modeling agent

builds somewhere else
  • 01You describe what you want
  • 02It builds geometry in a session on a server
  • 03You download a new file
  • 04You import it, re-scale it, re-layer it, and fix what it broke
What you get A new model, next to the one you were working on.

ZirenAI

builds where you are
  • 01You describe what you want
  • 02It runs against the model open on your screen
  • 03Ctrl+Z undoes it like any other edit
  • 04Your layers, components, scenes and materials stay as they were
What you get The model you already had, changed.
Setup

Three steps. No terminal.

The open-source MCP servers are genuinely good — if you are willing to install a package runner, edit a JSON config, and match Python versions. Most designers are not. That is the part we did for you.

01

It sets itself up

ZirenAI finds the modelling software you have installed and sets each one up for you — plugin, runtime, the lot — one click per application.

02

Pick your app

Choose SketchUp or Rhino in the composer. The connection is re-checked every time, and if it breaks you are told which part broke.

03

Describe the work

Plain language, reference images, a floor plan. It runs against your open model and shows every step it took.

Supported software

Built per application, not one generic bridge.

Each application gets its own plugin, its own tool set, and its own prompt tuning. A SketchUp group is not a Rhino block, and pretending otherwise is why generic tools produce geometry you have to clean up.

Before you buy

What it is good at — and what it is not.

Geometry that is 80% right is often worse than no geometry, because cleaning it up takes longer than modelling it yourself. So we point it at the work where being 80% right is still useful, and say plainly where it is not.

Worth handing over

  • Floor plan to massing — walls, openings, floor heights
  • Arraying and spacing — seating, lighting, planting, façade panels
  • Layer and naming cleanup against your office standard
  • Batch material assignment by room or element type
  • Swapping a component everywhere it appears

Keep doing yourself

  • Detailed furniture and joinery modelling
  • Topology decisions on curved and organic surfaces
  • Anything a drawing set gets stamped on
  • The design itself — it moves geometry, it does not have taste

Questions

The ones people actually ask.

Does it change my existing model, or make a new one?

It changes the model you have open. The plugin runs inside SketchUp or Rhino on your machine and issues the same operations you would — which is why undo works and your tags, components and scenes survive. Prompts, reference images, tool results and related context needed for AI requests may be sent to model providers. See our Privacy Policy for details.

How is this different from the official SketchUp AI connector?

Trimble's connector builds in a cloud SketchUp session and gives you a finished .skp to download. That is a good fit for starting something new. It is a poor fit for a project file you already have open with a hundred components in it — which is most working days.

Do I need a Claude or OpenAI subscription?

No separate model subscription is needed to use points in the client. Model usage is deducted from your point balance.

Which versions are supported?

SketchUp 2021 and newer, Rhino 7, 8 and 9, on Windows. macOS is in testing. Blender is not supported yet — the open-source route is good enough there that we would rather finish SketchUp and Rhino first.

What happens when it gets something wrong?

Undo. Every run is a normal undo step, and the app shows each operation it performed so you can see where it went off. Model usage that has already been settled may still cost points if a task fails.

Can it read my floor plan?

Yes — drop in a PDF, a photo, or a CAD export and describe what you want built from it. This is the single most-used workflow, and the one we tune hardest.
