Preview · First door: Rhino 8

Direct the work, don’t drive the tools.

Wrengler is a design substrate for the built world. Sandboxes assemble compute, services and AI imagery to answer one question at a time — built so agents can operate every layer. Hands-on control is right there too, on the same rails — for one designer or a whole practice.

The system

Services on one side. Sandboxes on the other.

Expertise lives in services. A sandbox is spun up per question, wired to exactly what it needs, and discarded when the answer lands — with its evidence attached.

Sandboxes

A sandbox is a project — or a mission.

Standing

The project

It lives in the system rather than in a file, from the brief to the build. Ask it anything, any time — it answers with evidence, not opinions.

Disposable

The mission

One specific case, one sandbox. It assembles the services, spends the compute, generates the imagery, returns a checkable answer — then dissolves.

Projects

The project outlives the file.

Every Rhino file you link joins a project that holds everything else the work needs — and you can ask it questions.

Link

Your Rhino file knows its project

Pick or create a project from the panel. The file remembers it — through renames, moves and Save As — and opens already linked.

Gather

One place for the work

Rhino files, drawings and specs, the facts you tag it with, the studies run against it. The same project in Rhino and on the web.

Ask

A chat that answers from the data

Ask the project from Rhino or the browser. Point a question at the project's data or the open scene; numbers are quoted from the data, never guessed.

  • Project data — tags, files, studies
  • Rhino scene — the file you have open
  • Image — generate from the view

Private by default. A copied file carries its link, never its access: only you and the people you add can open a project, and the assistant sees a summary of your scene, not your geometry.

Teams

Your practice, with its boundaries intact.

An organization holds your people and its rules. Workspaces hold the work, and only the people added to them. Projects draw on knowledge the team has already agreed.

Roles

Least privilege by default

Owners, admins, members and viewers at the organization; leads, editors and viewers in each workspace. Joining the organization opens nothing — people see a workspace only once they are added to it.

Invites

Bring the whole team

Invite colleagues by email, including people who don't have an account yet. They land with the role you chose and nothing more.

Knowledge

Facts the team has agreed

Editors propose, leads approve. Approved facts are frozen, projects pick the ones that apply, and the assistant quotes them as agreed — not as a guess.

Audit

A record nobody can edit

Membership, roles, workspaces, projects and knowledge changes are written to an audit trail automatically. Admins can read it; no one can rewrite it.

Controls

Limits and switches per organization

Usage limits that follow your plan, the assistant on or off for the whole organization, and how long the audit trail is kept.

Portable

Your data, on open ground

Standard Postgres with row-level security as the only authority. Every rule travels with the data, so no single host holds your work.

What a sandbox draws on

One engine. One contract. Room to grow.

Compute

Studies painted onto your model

Ray-based studies painted straight onto your model, on the hardware you already have. Sunlight is free and established; View and Radiation come with Pro; Daylight is planned.

Projects

One project, every door

Rhino files linked to a project, with its documents, tags and studies alongside. A chat answers from that data — from Rhino or the web — and quotes numbers as stored, never estimated.

Organizations

Access by workspace

Workspaces with roles, invites and least-privilege access. Knowledge the team has approved, an audit trail no one can rewrite, and controls set once for the whole practice.

AI imagery

Images that say what they are

Diagrams, sketches, interiors, landscapes and more, drawn from your model in the language of the brief. Every export says it is imagined and records how it was made.

Harness

One typed contract

Every action is a typed command. The panel you click and a headless run call the same contract, so anything a person can do is something a machine can drive.

Your machine

Your model stays on your desk

Analysis runs locally. Your model never leaves the desk it was drawn on, and no run waits in someone else's queue.

Sunlight runs end to end in Rhino today and stays free. View and Radiation come with Pro and are still under validation; Daylight is planned. The project assistant is an early Pro preview. Nothing here is an EN 17037 certification claim.
