Rendero and Veras AI at a glance
Chaos Veras supports images and model-based workflows through its web app and design-tool integrations. Its public materials describe sketch-to-image, model-to-image and selected-area rendering. Available controls vary by engine and version, so confirm the workflow supported by your host application.

Rendero
- Input
- An architectural image and a specific area to revise, such as a wall finish or planting bed.
- Editing workflow
- Select a scene region, then guide the change with the prompt and reference controls supported by your chosen engine.
- Design review
- Inspect the selected boundary before rendering and compare nearby details afterward. A selection guides the edit; openings and adjacent surfaces can still change.
Veras AI
- Input
- Sketches, images and views from supported design applications
- Editing workflow
- Smart selection and prompt controls; availability depends on version and engine
- Design review
- Compare the generated image with the source design

How credits work
Free accounts receive 50 starting credits once at signup. These credits do not refill each month.
Rendering charges vary with the model, resolution and, for some engines, processing time. Upscaling uses additional credits. The app shows your remaining balance.
Allow for retries and edits when planning a project. A credit balance does not represent a fixed number of finished images.
Named selection controls
Chaos documents Smart selection in Veras 4.5 for isolating an object, material or space. Its release notes identify the version that introduced the control. Check the version installed in your host application before following a tutorial or comparing editing steps.
Rendero uses scene segments for selected-area refinement and accepts reference guidance. Inspect the selection before asking for a material change, then compare the result with the source at windows and adjoining finishes. Available engines and resolutions depend on the Rendero plan.
Preparing a view from the model
The Veras product page lists web access and integrations with applications including Revit, SketchUp and Rhino. A browser alone therefore does not distinguish the products. For Rendero, export the camera view as an image; with Veras, check the supported route for your host and version.
Keep the export tied to a model revision so a later edit does not start from an old window layout or massing study. After generation, review the image against that revision. A connection to modeling software does not verify the generated detail.
Chaos also documents image-to-3D asset workflows in newer Veras releases. Evaluate those separately if you need geometry to bring into a model. This comparison concerns architectural images and their editing controls; Rendero's product facts describe its image workflow.
Export a view for Rendero with the SketchUp guide, Revit guide (in English) or Rhino guide (in English).
