Hi everyone,
I wanted to share a quick update. Last week, I presented AI Enhance 1.1 at the SketchUp 3D Summit in Denver, where I talked about making AI rendering more practical inside SketchUp workflows.
The goal with AI Enhance is to create a better AI rendering tool and experience while staying inside SketchUp.
A lot of AI rendering workflows still involve exporting screenshots, jumping between tools, rewriting prompts, and trying to keep the result close to the original model. AI Enhance is focused on reducing that friction by letting users generate and refine AI visuals directly from their SketchUp views.
Version 1.1 is now live and includes:
- Prompt Builder
- Look Builder
- Markup and editing tools
- Shared team credits
- General workflow improvements
The main focus is control: keeping the image closer to the model, the camera view, and the design intent while making the workflow faster and easier to use.
I’d love feedback from SketchUp users on where AI rendering fits into your workflow and what would make this type of tool more useful inside SketchUp.

Thanks,
Daniel Brown
PS. Like others, I’m experiencing a significant delay in the review time when submitting it to the Extension Warehouse. I’ve released the signed version of 1.1 on my site but it is frustrating not know how long the review from Trimble will actually take.
