Problem
Architects and marketing teams face a time-consuming and complex process in generating high-quality visualizations from 3D CAD and BIM models. Traditional rendering solutions often require specialized expertise, significant computing power, and manual effort, leading to delays and increased costs in project presentations and marketing efforts.
Solution
Pelicad is a cloud-based platform that leverages AI to automate the creation of architectural visualizations from 3D CAD and BIM data. By uploading an .ifc file, users can automatically adjust materials, integrate the model into a 3D Google Maps environment, and render scenes using text prompts or reference images to define the desired atmosphere and style. The platform's AI algorithms interpret architectural data and metadata from BIM files to generate accurate and consistent visuals, eliminating the need for extensive manual design work or specialized rendering skills. Pelicad enables users to create high-impact visuals for concept studies, client presentations, and marketing materials in a fraction of the time compared to traditional rendering methods.
Target Audience
Pelicad is designed for architects, urban planners, marketing teams, and real estate professionals who need to quickly generate high-quality architectural visualizations for presentations, marketing, and client communication.
