Research-based review. Features and prices are checked on the vendor's own website, and the score is worked out from those facts. We haven't tested it hands-on yet.

The verdict

Spacely AI is worth it for firms that rely on SketchUp or Rhino plugins and want a genuine free plan, though mnml.ai adds video walkthroughs and single sign-on that Spacely still lacks.

Pros

  • The free plan costs nothing forever and needs no credit card.
  • Even the free plan includes watermark-free exports and a commercial license.
  • Renders can start from a sketch, a 3D model, a room photo or a floor plan.
  • Official plugins exist for SketchUp and Rhino.
  • Downloads go up to 4K on the Personal plan and above.
  • Team Canvas provides real-time collaboration on the Studio and Agency plans.
  • A Style Transfer tool matches a render's look to a reference image.
  • An Agency-plan private API key lets Spacely's rendering be pulled into another workflow.

Cons

  • Personal is capped at one seat; a second seat requires upgrading to Studio.
  • Studio covers only up to two seats and Agency up to five, with no plan in between.
  • Only SketchUp and Rhino are confirmed as live plugins, though Revit and AutoCAD are listed as integrations.
  • There is no video-rendering feature.
  • There is no single sign-on option.
  • A private API key is available only on the Agency plan.

How the Spec Score works

Scored from what Spacely AI publishes on its own site. Not a hands-on test.

Compared with 2 AI room and building renderers. Facts checked 20 Sep 2026.

A fact the vendor does not publish gets half the points, or the typical value for a number, and says so. It never counts as a no. How we score.

Spacely AI turns a sketch, a 3D model, a room photo or a floor plan into a photorealistic interior or exterior render, with a permanent free plan that already includes commercial use and watermark-free downloads. What decides whether it suits you is whether the official SketchUp and Rhino plugins fit your existing workflow, since other 3D programs need an exported image rather than a live model.

What is Spacely AI?

Spacely AI runs only in the browser. Its own Trust Center states there is no mobile app for iOS or Android and no general browser extension. Renders are generated from a written style prompt applied to an uploaded sketch, 3D model or room photo; the vendor's pages do not name the underlying AI model.

Rendering with Spacely AI

A render can start from a sketch, a 3D model, a room photo or a floor plan. For 3D models, only SketchUp has an official plugin: Spacely's own FAQ says other 3D programs need a 2D image exported first before it can be uploaded.

Spacely's Trust Center names official plugins for SketchUp and Rhino. Its pricing page separately lists Revit and AutoCAD as software integrations, though only the SketchUp and Rhino plugins are listed as live extensions in the Trust Center's own list.

Downloads go up to 4K on the Personal plan and above. Editing tools include Point and Edit, Empty the Room, Lighting Transfer, Enhance Quality, Auto Edit and a Background Generator, plus a style picker and a Style Transfer tool for matching a reference look. There is no video-rendering feature.

Working with other people

Team Canvas gives real-time collaboration, showing every teammate's edits as they happen, available on the Studio and Agency plans. Agency adds a private API key for pulling Spacely's rendering into another workflow. Spacely AI runs only on the web, with no mobile app and no browser extension.

Spacely AI pricing: what each plan gives

Spacely AI pricing screenshot
Spacely AI, Pricing

The free plan costs nothing forever and needs no credit card, with 40 credits to try the tools. Even on free, Spacely includes access to every feature, high-resolution download, private mode, a commercial license and watermark-free exports.

Personal costs $25 a month, or $20 a month billed yearly, for one seat and 500 credits a month, about 250 renders. Studio costs $50 a month, or $40 a month billed yearly, covering up to two seats for that one price. Agency costs $100 a month, or $80 a month billed yearly, covering up to five seats for that one price.

Privacy and support

Commercial use is included on every plan, including the free one. There is no single sign-on option.

Support runs through a Discord community on Personal, and email support on Studio and Agency, replying within 48 hours on Studio and 24 hours on Agency.

Who Spacely AI suits

Spacely AI suits architects, interior designers and real estate professionals who work in SketchUp or Rhino and want a free plan that already includes commercial rights and full features, plus teams that want to review renders together in real time through Team Canvas.

It suits less well anyone who needs a native plugin for Revit or AutoCAD, since only SketchUp and Rhino are listed as live extensions, or a video walkthrough of a render, since that feature does not exist. Teams that need single sign-on for account administration will not find it here.
