INK TO BRICK vs Archome AI: plans, editing and renders

Archome AI includes an editable Plan & Render workflow alongside image and video tools. Compare the plan editor and model handoff, not only the appearance of a render.[1][4]

Your taskINK TO BRICKArchome AI

Price and accessYour first floor is built in 3D free. Pay to edit it and save. Floor packages start at USD 4.99; check purchased-floor and subscription access for the intended handoff.[3]Offers starter credits and paid plans. Reading a plan and rendering are separate credit operations.[1]

Scale the planVerify dimensions against a known source measurement before evaluating furniture clearance.[4]Plan & Render asks for building width in centimeters.[2]

Edit the resultUse chat and Expert tools for supported elements, then save different layout options.[4]Describes an editable 3D scene with walls, openings and furniture.[2]

Use an existing modelImport supported building or object models and preserve the distinction between native and mesh editing.[5]The reviewed Plan & Render tool begins with a plan image or PDF screenshot; its photo-to-GLB tool is a separate workflow.[2]

See the editing workflow

For a workflow that includes editable geometry, compare the specific objects you can change and the views you can use to inspect them. These INK TO BRICK examples show a native wall operation and linked plan/3D views. Compare those tasks with the model editor or file delivered by the selected vendor workflow; image tools and model tools within a suite can produce different outputs.

The demonstrations use native elements in the sample duplex authored in INK TO BRICK.

Walls, fences and columns

Draw walls corner by corner, control snapping and continuation, reshape a wall, and draw fences and columns.

A wall being drawn on the plan beside the sample duplex, its running length printed next to it as the cursor moves along the grid. — The length follows the cursor until the next click fixes the wall.

Views and screenshots

Switch between plan, 3D and split, change how walls and levels show, preview and walk through the home, and save a picture of the view.

The sample duplex in Mixed view: the ground-floor plan on one side and the 3D model on the other. — Mixed keeps the plan and the model side by side.

Follow the specific tool through to its deliverable

A product offering image-to-3D in one tool does not establish the export behavior of every other tool. Test a wall correction, saved reopening and the final file in the same workflow. For presentation-only work, evaluate the image tools on that requirement.

What we reviewed

We reviewed the product and Plan & Render pages. We did not process a private plan, test a paid render or verify a model export from that editor.[6]
