LookX
LookX is a cloud-based AI visualization service for architecture and interior design that turns sketches and text into renderings, with optional SketchUp and Rhino plug-ins and tools for video and style control.
LookX markets its cloud workspace to architects and interior designers who want quick image and video outputs from prompts, reference images, or uploaded sketches. The public site lists RealTime generation, video clips from stills or text, model training on reference sets, and plug-ins for SketchUp and Rhino alongside the browser workflow (LookX, 2026).
Feature areas include style adapters that follow a reference image, upscaling, duplication of community prompts, architectural vocabulary templates, and a prompt assistant that expands short briefs into longer text. These pieces target teams that iterate visuals during early design rather than replacing full BIM authoring.
Pricing detail is not spelled out on the English marketing pages reviewed in April 2026 beyond a free entry point, so treat paid tiers as account-specific and confirm inside the product or vendor contact paths before you budget firm-wide (LookX, 2026).
Use LookX output the way you would any AI image tool: check dimensions, code, and material intent against your model of record before you label images as contract documents.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Browser access lowers the bar for quick studies without a full render farm.
- SketchUp and Rhino paths help teams who already model in those hosts.
- Style and vocabulary tools aim prompts at architectural language rather than generic stock art.
Cons
- Public pages reviewed in April 2026 lacked detailed list pricing; expect to verify quotas in-product.
- AI images need human review against code, accessibility, and client briefs.
- Plug-in coverage does not replace a full BIM coordination stack on its own.

Host plug-ins: Downloadable extensions for SketchUp and Rhino to send context from desktop models.
Style adapter: Steer outputs with a reference image instead of long text alone.
Upscale: Refine resolution and detail on results you already generated.
Prompt tooling: Architectural vocabulary templates and an assistant that expands short prompts.
Custom models: Train styles from a batch of reference images when your plan supports it.

Frequently asked questions
Is LookX free?
The marketing site promotes getting started for free, but exact quotas and paid tiers are defined inside the account or updated offers. Check lookx.ai after you sign in for current limits.
Does LookX work with SketchUp?
Yes. The site advertises multi-platform plug-ins that include SketchUp so you can connect desktop modeling to the LookX workflow. Download versions from the official plug-in page and match them to your SketchUp year.
Does LookX support Rhino?
The same plug-in section references Rhino integration. Install the build that matches your Rhino version and test on a small model before you rely on it in production.
Can LookX replace Enscape or V-Ray?
LookX focuses on AI-generated imagery and quick iteration rather than full physically based lighting rigs inside Revit or Rhino. Many studios pair it with traditional engines when they need calibrated materials and exact camera matches.
What file types can I upload?
Marketing copy centers on sketches and reference images for RealTime and style workflows. Confirm accepted formats and size limits in the upload UI because they can change between releases.
Does LookX produce construction documents?
No. It produces visualizations and related media. Construction documentation still belongs in BIM or CAD tools where dimensions, sheets, and revisions stay controlled.
