Introducing Prestige: AI for Houdini

The first AI-powered assistant designed specifically for Houdini artists.

The Problem

Houdini is incredibly powerful, but its complexity can be overwhelming. Artists spend hours building networks, debugging node graphs, searching through documentation, and trying to remember the exact syntax for VEX functions.

We've all been there: you know what you want to create, but you're stuck googling "VEX noise function parameters" for the tenth time this week, or trying to remember if it's @P or v@P for that vector attribute.

Our Solution

RAG-Enhanced Docs

3k+ indexed entries including VEX functions, SOP nodes, and custom tailor-made examples with semantic search.

Context-Aware

Analyzes your current scene and provides relevant suggestions, debugging and analysis.

How It Works

Prestige uses advanced language models combined with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to understand Houdini's ecosystem.

Multi-Provider Flexibility

Choose your AI provider. You're not locked in.

Groq - Fast and free tier

Anthropic Claude - Industry-leading quality

OpenAI - GPT-4o and GPT-4o-mini

Google Gemini - Google's latest models

LM Studio / Ollama - Run offline on your hardware
