I totally respect your approach, Mike.
We're not targeting people like you for MyArchitectAI. Rather those who feel like rendering is an extra burden they can't afford to spend their time (or money) on.
So it’s kinda like iPhone vs DSLR, both have their place, just for different types of users.
Good to meet you @pixelcruncher
If you have a look at the video I linked to in my previous comment, it's very easy. You just describe it with words, and it doesn't affect the rest of the render.
ComfyUI is a tool that helps you work with AI models, so you'd need to train a model (e.g. Qwen or Seedream) to do these kinds of operations for you precisely.
Yes, we do have an API (you can test it here https://rapidapi.com/myarchitectai-team-myarchitectai-team-default/api/architecture-rendering-api) but we didn't include the editing tools in it yet as they're still in beta.

The workflow itself is a lot different than in physically-based renderers and a lot simplified, so I'm not sure if it can be used to teach rendering. Text-to-image generators are already used by many studios for concept generation, but that's a bit of a different category of software.
Re: material control, you can upload your own material swatch and apply it to the render, so you have full control over the output. Here's a quick demo of the editing tool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZPLuowA-Cc&list=PLNRL2qttoqxDrZ3AJvz6wD2FbBLO3RLnI&index=5

Hey I'm Kacper, Co-Founder of MyArchitectAI, happy to answer any questions about our tool.
@Mike-Amos "idiot box for renders" is a pretty accurate description of what we're aiming for in terms of ease of use. In many cases, you'll get a really good result just by uploading your SketchUp export and pressing 'generate." Then, you can apply any changes like test new materials, add and remove objects, change atmospheres etc.
We're not trying to replace physically-based renderers, as the level of precision of AI image models is still not there (at least for now). We do have plenty of studios that are using MyArchitectAI together with Enscape/TM/Lumion, and I'd say this is the most efficient tool stack right now.
Anyway, if you need to know anything else about our, or other AI tools, just let me know.
