    The problem

    Populating renders is slow, manual, and disconnected

    Hours spent on manual placement

    Sourcing cutout people, scaling them, matching lighting, adjusting shadows — for every single view.

    Disconnected tools

    Exporting to Photoshop, placing stock figures, re-importing — a fragmented process that breaks flow.

    Flat, unconvincing results

    Generic stock cutouts rarely match the scene's lighting, perspective, or cultural context.

    No diversity control

    Limited stock libraries make it difficult to represent the communities your buildings serve.

    The solution

    Quick Populate adds human context in seconds

    Quick Populate seamlessly integrates realistic, diverse people into your architectural scenes. Define demographics, cultural context, and crowd density — then generate in under seven seconds, directly on your canvas.

    People are placed with correct scale, perspective, and lighting. Your architecture stays at the centre — the figures enhance the narrative without overwhelming the design.

    How it works

    From empty render to populated scene in four steps.

    01

    Upload or select your render

    Start with any architectural render on your canvas — exterior, interior, or landscape.

    02

    Set your parameters

    Define age ranges, geographic context, diversity preferences, crowd density, and clothing styles.

    03

    Add scene context

    Optional prompts like "families with strollers", "office workers", or "evening diners" refine the result.

    04

    Generate in seconds

    Quick Populate places people naturally — correctly scaled, lit, and positioned within your scene.

    Where studios use Quick Populate

    Planning submissions

    Show how public spaces, streets, and buildings will be used. Give planners the human context they need to approve confidently.

    Client presentations

    Transform empty renders into compelling narratives. Clients connect with spaces when they can see people living in them.

    Competition imagery

    Produce populated visuals under tight deadlines without waiting for external CGI or manual post-production.

    Design reviews

    Populate early-stage renders to test spatial relationships, circulation, and atmosphere before committing to details.

    What architects are saying

    "Quick Populate — the people were so snug on the couch that I had in the render. I instantly loved it."

    Aneudy Salcedo

    Architect, Intercultural 3 Design

    "The value was immediate. The first image out of Gendo felt like a no-brainer at the price point. It's fast, architectural, and very useful in live design reviews."

    Liam Cox

    Liam Cox

    Urban Designer, MCAU

    "Client took a rendered image from Gendo from one of our hand sketches to the meeting, the planners took one look — boom. Planners on board."
