Hey everyone 👋 - Nick here, founder of Drafted. Before Drafted, we spent years helping people design and build custom homes. We repeatedly saw homeowners, architects, builders, and developers asking the same question: "Given these constraints, what could I design?" Surprisingly, answering that question is still slow and expensive. Exploring even a handful of alternatives often requires significant design work before anyone knows whether a direction is worth pursuing. We started experimenting with whether modern generative models could help. Existing image models could generate beautiful architectural images, but they struggled with floor plans because floor plans require spatial reasoning, geometry, and functional relationships between rooms. Over the last year, we've been building models specifically for residential architecture. Today, users can define room lists, square footage targets, footprint shapes, lot boundaries, and other constraints to generate complete floor plans, elevations, and 3D home designs in seconds. We'd love feedback from anyone interested in AI, architecture, construction, real estate, or design software. We'll be here all day answering questions. Feel free to email me: Nick@drafted.ai

Wow this is like really really cool. Im sorry i have no use to try it as its just not in my wheelhouse of projects / products i work with but i was just looking at the products today and i was really impressed with this. I have seen a lot of like make this room look good with Ai but you guys went to a whole other level with this.

I definitely think this project should have been upvoted higher. I feel bad as i usually test the products i feel are cool and leave feedback but just dont know where to even start with this one. I did go through the site a bit though and some small recommendation's would be the landing page maybe should have some content or pics or video (this video you have here in ph is super compelling) but all these templates that if i click on take me to a login seems a little forceful. I just feel like its hard to learn exactly what you are about without being forced to sign up. I am no marketing expert what so ever, just wanted to point that out as its just my personal feelings. I thought it was just the product hunt slug page or something but i see your real homepage is the same. Anyway best of luck really amazing stuff!
