Drafted is a free AI home design platform that generates complete floor plans and 3D exterior renderings from simple inputs like room count, lot size, and style preferences. Built by a team of researchers from Stanford, Autodesk, and Brown, it produces multiple layout options in seconds. You can iterate on designs, explore 2D and 3D views, furnish interiors, and export files in PDF, CAD (DXF), and BIM (IFC) formats. Used by over 120,000 people across 194 countries, Drafted serves homeowners, architects, builders, and developers during the early design phase.

• Instant Floor Plan Generation: Enter your room count, square footage, lot size, and style preferences to get multiple complete floor plan options in under five seconds.
• 3D Exterior Renderings: Each floor plan comes with matched 3D exterior elevation views, so you can visualize the full home concept, not just the layout.
• Custom Footprint Drawing: Draw any footprint shape and generate a full home layout inside it, giving you control over the building envelope from the start.
• Design Constraints & Controls: Define lot boundaries, room placement, room relationships, square footage targets, and structural constraints that persist across generations.
• Iterative Design Exploration: Refine generated concepts, adjust direction, modify layouts, and keep building from the option closest to your goal without starting over.
• Professional File Exports: Download your designs as PDF, DXF (CAD), or IFC (BIM) files, ready to hand off to an architect, engineer, or drafter.
• Interior Furnishing: Experiment with furniture placement and materials directly within generated floor plans to visualize livable spaces.
• Community Plan Library: Browse 85,000+ AI-created house plans from other users for inspiration, filtering, and download.

• Completely Free: Generate floor plans, explore designs, and download PDF, CAD, and BIM files at no cost.
• Very Fast Output: Produces multiple floor plan options with matched 3D exteriors in under five seconds from simple inputs.
• No Design Experience Needed: Homeowners with zero architectural knowledge can describe what they want and get a usable starting point.
• Strong Export Options: Supports PDF, DXF, and IFC formats, making handoff to professionals straightforward.
• Active Iteration Workflow: You can keep refining designs without restarting, making the exploration process efficient and focused.

• Single-Story Only: Currently limited to single-level floor plans. Multi-story homes, second floors, and basements are not yet supported (in development).
• Imperial Units Only: No metric unit support at this time, which is a gap for international users across the platform's 194 countries.
• Not Construction-Ready: Generated plans are starting points for exploration and communication, not final construction documents. You still need a licensed architect or engineer.
• Some Features are Still Being Developed: Capabilities such as multi-story planning, metric support, and certain workflow enhancements are still being added to the platform.

• Homeowner Dream Home Exploration: You want a 3-bedroom home with a home office, open kitchen, mudroom, and roughly 2,400 square feet, but you don't know how those spaces should fit together. Drafted generates multiple layout options in seconds so you can bring a clearer concept to your architect or builder.
• Architect & Designer Client Collaboration: Compare early design directions with clients before heavy drafting work begins. Generate several layout concepts quickly to align on priorities like room flow, privacy, and circulation before committing resources.
• Builder Buyer Options & Pricing: Explore buyer customization options before estimating costs and starting formal drafting. Show prospective buyers different layout configurations for the same lot to speed up decision-making.
• Developer Plan Families & Site Fit: Compare plan types and test how different layouts fit specific lot shapes and boundaries before committing drafting time. Quickly evaluate which plan families work best across a development.
• Concept to CAD/BIM Handoff: Export IFC or DXF files directly from Drafted to continue refining in your preferred engineering or CAD software. Skip manual re-drawing of early concepts and jump straight into detailed design work.
