New Rendair review: editing, models, Boards and 3D by David Parra
David Parra reviews the new Rendair: multi-area editing, material swaps, sessions, Boards and early 3D tools, plus what he likes less about the interface.
David Parra, who covers AI tools for architecture and interiors, returns to Rendair to review its new version. He sorts the changes into three groups: the editing and model updates he rates highest, the 3D tools that are promising but not ready for client work, and the parts he is less convinced by. That structure makes this a balanced review rather than a feature list, and it is useful if you used the earlier version and want to know what changed.
What you'll see
- Annotate Image, marking several areas of a kitchen and giving each its own prompt in a single run.
- Change Materials with an uploaded floor tile image, checking that the tile's texture and sheen carry over while the rest of the image stays the same.
- Sessions, which keep every version of a piece of work so you can branch from any earlier image, here making a kitchen into an evening view.
- Rendair's updated in-house model alongside external models such as Nano Banana Pro.
- Image to Video with the Kling model on architecture images.
- Boards, in beta, set up as a repeatable workflow: sketch to render, then people and decor, then an interior mood board, rerun by swapping the base image.
- Image to 3D Model on a teapot, Image to Scene on a kitchen photo, and 3D Model to Render from an uploaded OBJ file you can rotate and frame.
- The advanced editor (Edit Canvas), with brushes, a polygonal lasso, frames, text, shapes and a model picker in one place.
Takeaways
- He considers editing Rendair's main strength and sees multi-area annotation as something he had not found elsewhere.
- He was most impressed by how faithfully Change Materials matched the reference tile.
- He called sessions the most useful addition, even if not the most eye-catching.
- He is candid that Image to 3D Model works for small objects and Image to Scene still has many errors, so both are for exploring for now.
- He finds the new interface busier than before, with apps that seem to repeat. His tip is to go straight to the advanced editor, which covers most editing in one tool.
Try it yourself
Annotate Image and Change Materials cover the editing he rates highest. If you repeat the same steps across projects, build them once in Boards and swap the starting image.
