Studio Tools & Interaction
Spacebar Peek
Hold the Spacebarwhile viewing any render to instantly "peek" at the original cleaned room. This is the fastest way to compare the AI's design with the base space.
Keyboard Navigation
Use the Arrow Left/Right keys to quickly switch between different renders in the version ribbon without taking your hands off the keyboard.
Architectural Integrity
Our AI ensures that the structural layout of the room (walls, windows, doors) remains identical to the original photo, preserving the architectural depth of the property.
Architectural Marketing Copy
Altara automatically generates a professional architectural description for your renovated room. This copy is specifically written to highlight the design choices and can be used directly in your marketing materials.
The description is updated every time you generate a new renovation and is included in your client proposals.
Handling Failures
Sometimes AI generation may fail due to complexity or server issues. We've built safeguards to protect your credits:
Automatic Refunds
If a render fails for any technical reason, your credit is automatically refunded to your balance instantly. You never pay for failed generations.
Manual Retry
If a generation fails, you'll see a "Retry" button. Clicking this will attempt the generation again with the same settings.
About Credits
Each AI generation (Cleaning or Renovation) uses 1 credit. Your credit balance is shown in the bottom-left user menu. You can purchase more credits in Settings > Billing.
