AI Models
Archvisio offers several AI image models, each strong at something different. Pick one in the model selector when you generate or edit a render, or leave it on Auto. The credit costs below are for a 1K render; higher resolutions cost more (see Credits & Plans).
Render Models
| Model | Best for | Credits (1K) |
|---|---|---|
| Auto | Picks the model for you from your inputs (see below) | depends on the pick |
| Nano 2 | Best all-rounder, native 4K output, up to 14 references | 220 |
| Nano 2 Lite | Fastest, low-cost drafts | 60 |
| GPT Image 2.5 | Richest materials and staging, up to 16 references | 170 (medium quality) |
| Seedream 5 Pro | Cinematic light and atmosphere, up to 10 references | 190 |
| Flux 2 Pro | Photorealistic results, up to 8 references | 180 |
| FLUX 3 | Stays most literal to your drawing, up to 10 references | 140 |
| Z-Image Sketch | Geometry-locked renders from a single sketch | 40 |
Nano 2 costs 330 credits at 2K and 440 at 4K. Flux 2 Pro and FLUX 3 cost 300 at 2K. GPT Image 2.5 has a low quality tier (50 credits) and a high one (550 credits). Very expensive settings can be restricted for team members by a workspace admin.
