SketchUp Extension + Online Portal

Consistent AI Renders of Your SketchUp Designs, Scene After Scene

Most AI renderers reinvent your room every time you render. FOCUSED AI Rendering keeps the same materials, products and look in every scene, because they are assigned to the objects in your SketchUp model. Then manage the project, create new views and share it with your client on the web.

FOCUSED AI Rendering inside SketchUp: a photoreal kitchen render over the SketchUp model

What It Is

One Tool for the Render and Everything After It

Most render tools stop at one picture. FOCUSED AI Rendering renders the whole project consistently, then keeps going: the project, the variations, the client presentation and the feedback.

In SketchUp

The extension

Pick a scene and render it photoreal without leaving SketchUp. Your real products, finishes and paint colors, for interiors and exteriors.

On the web

Your project portal

Every render lands in its project automatically. Organize by level, space and design option, make new camera angles, and keep paints, files and clients together.

For your clients

A page for each project

Send clients their own page with your logo: the approved renders, videos and design documents, with comments, approvals and downloads.

The Rendering Engine

Consistent Renders, Scene After Scene

A client presentation is a set of renders of one design. Every view has to show the same room. That is exactly where AI rendering has always fallen apart, and where FOCUSED AI Rendering was built to win.

The problem

AI forgets your design between renders

A typical AI renderer starts from scratch every time: a screenshot and a sentence of text. It has no idea what the walnut, the marble or the sofa were in the last render, so it guesses again. It was the biggest problem with AI rendering from day one, and with most tools it still is.

  • ✕The island is walnut in one view and oak in the next.
  • ✕The marble veining, the tile and the paint color drift from scene to scene.
  • ✕The pendant you specified becomes a different light; the sofa changes shape.
  • ✕Windows, moldings and furniture appear that you never drew.
  • ✕You re-roll until it looks close, and the client still asks why the kitchen changed.

The FOCUSED solution

Your design lives in the model, so every scene gets it

In FOCUSED AI Rendering you assign the design to SketchUp itself, once, and every render reads it from there:

  • ✓Materials: a photo of the real walnut, marble or tile is attached to the SketchUp material, so every surface painted with it renders the same finish, in every view.
  • ✓Products: the photo of the actual pendant, faucet or stool is attached to its component, so that exact product appears wherever the component does.
  • ✓Paint colors: brand, name, color code and sheen, per material.
  • ✓One look: pick one finished render (or any photo) as the look, and every scene matches its lighting and color grading.
  • ✓Design options: each option keeps its own set of finishes, so "Light and bright" and "Dark and moody" never mix.

The FOCUSED AI Rendering Framework

Every Render Is Built From the Same Blocks

A render is not a screenshot and a hopeful sentence. For every scene, the extension assembles the same structured request, in the same order, from what you assigned in the model. The AI gets the same instructions and the same references every time, so it gives the same answer every time.

This is my FOCUSED AI Rendering framework and its prompt block structure, built into the software: you do the design, it writes the prompt.

  1. Image 1 The SketchUp viewA clean export of the scene: the geometric truth. Walls, openings, cabinets and furniture stay exactly where and how big you drew them.
  2. Image 2 The material mapThe same view with each finish painted a flat color, and a key naming every one, so the AI knows which surface is which finish.
  3. Image 3 Product calloutsNumbered markers on the products in view, matched to their photos.
  4. Boards Your real materials and productsThe photos you assigned, laid out as swatch boards: the actual grain, veining, weave and products to copy.
  5. Look One photographic lookThe render or photo every scene matches for light, exposure and color grading.
  6. Rules Guard railsPrompt blocks that keep the room honest: add no windows or fixtures, copy each pattern exactly, keep plants and paving as drawn, light it for the time, weather and season.

The SketchUp Extension

Render Without Leaving SketchUp

Pick a scene, click render. No exporting, no second program, no render engine to learn. The render opens over your model so you can compare the two.

  • Your model stays the boss: walls, windows, cabinets and furniture stay where you drew them, at their real sizes.
  • Give it photos of the actual sofa, tile, fabric or fixture you specified, and it renders those.
  • Paint colors by brand and code, and the sheen per material: flat walls, semi-gloss trim.
  • Time of day, weather and season for every scene; outdoors, shadows follow the sun for the time you choose.
  • Design options ("Light and bright", "Dark and moody") rendered from the same model.
  • Upscale the render you love for print, turn it into a short video, or fix one object that came out wrong.

The Online Portal

Manage Every Project on the Web

Your projects live at projects.focusedsketchup.com. Link a SketchUp model once and everything you render files itself in the right place.

Every render, filed

Renders upload to their project as drafts. Approve the ones the client should see, from the web or from SketchUp: approvals sync both ways.

Levels and spaces

File renders, plans and photos under Basement, First floor, Kitchen, Home theater. One room or fifty, it stays tidy.

Design options

Keep each look of a project apart. The client sees a tab per option and approves each one.

Paint colors

A paint list per project with brand, name, code and color, picked with an eyedropper.

Files and documents

Plans, elevations, PDFs, spreadsheets and Word files beside the renders. Paste a screenshot straight into a project.

Clients and teams

Your clients in one list, each with their own link. Studios share projects, clients and paints with their team.

Eight new camera angles of one kitchen render, made from the website: aerial, close-ups, high and low angles
One render in, eight new shots out: aerial, close-up, extreme close-up, high angle, low angle, medium close-up, medium long and point of view.

Variations From the Website

New Camera Angles of the Same Design

On the website, tick the renders you like and choose Create variations. Pick the shots you want, and the times of day, weather and seasons, and they render side by side.

  • Real camera moves, not crops: a true aerial, a close-up of the island, a low angle.
  • Every object stays the same: the same cabinets, the same count of stools, the same finishes.
  • Only your approved renders of the same design option guide the new ones, so a "Dark and moody" option never leaks into "Light and bright".
  • Interiors and exteriors: street, corner, drone and twilight shots for the outside of a house.

Collaborate With Clients

Feedback Right on the Render

Your client opens a render and marks exactly what they mean: a pin, a circle or a freehand drawing, with a comment. No more "the light on the left, no, the other left".

  • You get an email with a link straight to that render; they get one when you reply.
  • Comments work on videos too, at the moment in the video.
  • An approval box per design option, so "yes, that one" is on record.
  • You review on the same page, signed in, and see every comment in one place.

FAQ

Questions, Answered

What is FOCUSED AI Rendering?

A SketchUp extension that turns your scenes into photoreal renders with AI, plus an online portal where every project, render and client lives. You design in SketchUp; it handles the picture and the presentation.

How does it keep every scene consistent?

Your design is assigned to the model, not typed into a prompt. Material photos are attached to SketchUp materials, product photos to components, paint colors to materials, and one finished render or photo sets the look. Every scene is then sent with the same structured request (the SketchUp view, a material map with a key, product callouts, swatch boards of your real materials and products, the look and the rules), so the same walnut, marble and pendant come back in every view.

Why are other AI renders inconsistent?

Most AI renderers start from scratch on every image: a screenshot and a line of text. They do not know what the materials or products were in the last render, so they guess again, and finishes, fixtures and even windows change from view to view. FOCUSED AI Rendering never asks the AI to guess what you already decided.

Will the AI change my design?

No. The SketchUp model is the geometric truth: walls, openings, cabinets and furniture stay where you drew them, at the sizes you drew them. The AI finishes the picture with real light, materials and detail.

Can it render the products I specified?

Yes. Attach a photo of the actual sofa, light, tile or fabric to the component or material in SketchUp, and the render uses it. Paint colors go in by brand, name and code.

Does it do exteriors?

Yes. Every scene has a time of day, weather and season. For exteriors, shadows follow the sun for the time and season you choose, and the surroundings are filled in around your model.

Do I need a powerful computer?

No. Renders are made on our servers. SketchUp only exports the scene, so a regular design laptop is fine.

Can I make videos?

Yes. Turn a render into a short video for your client or your social media, and upscale stills for print.

Does it come with FOCUSED Scene Manager?

Yes. FOCUSED Scene Manager comes in the same download, and every plan and the free trial unlock the full version. It replaces SketchUp's row of scene tabs with your scenes organized by floor, space and category, and sends the ones you mark straight to render.
