# Gendo AI for Architects: Everything You Need to Get Started

Oliver Thomas of ArchiTech Network revisits an old competition project in Gendo — new views, material edits, video, upscaling and shared boards — as a full getting-started walkthrough.

## About This Video

An independent review and walkthrough from the ArchiTech Network, using a real architectural competition project rather than a demo scene. What's covered: • Setting up a first project and finding your way around the canvas • Text-to-image generation for early concept work • Turning Rhino and Enscape exports into finished renders • Editing images, materials and details without regenerating everything • Exploring real-world materials through the Material Bank integration • Creating new camera angles from an existing image • Turning approved renders into short AI video • Upscaling and enhancing imagery for presentation • Building presentation boards and working collaboratively • How the GENDO 48 competition works Useful if you are assessing Gendo for a studio workflow and want an outside practitioner's account of how the tools fit together end to end.
