AI Assistant

An in-app assistant for Rhino-based environmental design — explain results, suggest parameters, guide the workflow.

In development, not yet available. This page describes the planned experience; details may change before release.

The ray studies produce real numbers — sun-hour counts, visible fractions, irradiance. Reading them well, and knowing what to set before you run, is its own skill. The AI Assistant is a planned in-app companion for exactly that, in context, without leaving Rhino.

Planned Capabilities

Explain results — ask what an output means in plain language, grounded in the study you just ran rather than generic advice.

Suggest parameters — reasonable starting points for date range, time resolution, grid density, and scope, given the question you're asking.

Guide the workflow — from organizing geometry into groups to picking the right study for the question at hand.

The aim is a concrete helper, not a replacement for your judgment. The analysis still runs on the verified ray engine; the assistant helps you interpret and steer it.

Where it Fits

Alongside the planned AI Image Generation service: the image service helps you see design directions, the assistant helps you reason about results.

💡

Until it ships, each study's own page in the Services Overview covers its parameters and how to read the output.
