Rhino 8 plugin / Private beta
Capture your Rhino viewport and turn it into AI imagery through a simple, node based workflow. Describe it, rewire nodes, and iterate fast, all inside Rhino.
The difference
Other AI render tools make you export screenshots and wrestle with one long prompt in a separate app. RhinoFrame captures your viewport and lets you compose the render as a node graph, right inside Rhino, the way you already think in Grasshopper.
Capabilities
Compose your render from prompt, style, reference image, edit, and sketch nodes. Add a node, swap a node, rewire the graph, and iterate, the same way you already work in Grasshopper. No other AI render plugin works like this.
DifferentiatorShaded, rendered, line, depth, and material passes from your active viewport, in one click. Everything the model needs to work from your scene.
Capture, prompt, render. A few controls and a safe-frame preview. For when you just need the shot.
Compose with prompt, style, edit, reference-image, and sketch nodes. Build exactly the render you want.
Routes to best-in-class providers so you never settle on quality or speed.
Lives in a dockable panel inside Rhino 8. History, re-runs, and save-back to your document, without ever leaving the model.
How it works
Frame your shot in the viewport. RhinoFrame grabs the passes it needs from your Rhino scene.
Add prompt, style, reference image, and sketch nodes. Build exactly the render you want.
RhinoFrame renders on the best model for the job and brings the result back into your canvas.
Swap a node, compare variations, and save results straight back into your Rhino document.
Two ways to work
Capture, pick a model, hit render. A safe-frame preview, a credit estimate, and a result. Nothing between you and the shot.
A node canvas where viewports, prompts, styles, references, edits, and sketches connect into a workflow you can save, reuse, and share.
Advanced mode
Advanced mode gives you a node canvas where viewports, prompts, styles, references, and sketches connect into a workflow. Change one node and re-render, compare variations side by side, and save the setup to reuse on the next project. If you know Grasshopper, you already know how this feels.
Try it in the betaPrivacy & control
CAD viewports can carry confidential IP. Bring your own provider key for sensitive jobs, keep captures scoped and short-lived, and choose exactly which model sees your model. A local, offline mode is on the roadmap.

The education brand thousands of Rhino designers already learn from. RhinoFrame is built by people who use Rhino every day, for people who do the same.

RhinoFrame runs on Rhino 8 on Windows today. Rhino 7 and Mac support, plus Grasshopper components, are planned for later phases.
You compose the render as a node graph, so you control the prompt, style, reference images, and how the scene is interpreted. Iterate quickly by changing nodes and re-rendering until it looks right.
Captures are scoped and short-lived, and for sensitive client work you can bring your own provider key so the job runs on your own account and terms.
Each plan includes a monthly credit allowance for AI renders; you can top up with credit packs at any time. [ Exact allowances and pricing TBD. ]
Bring-your-own-key is supported for free providers today. A fully local, offline rendering mode is on the roadmap for a later phase.
