What Drafted is

Drafted generates floor plan layouts and visualizations from a room list, house shape, lot size, and design preferences. It creates five layout options, which users can refine by editing walls, doors, and windows; a matching 3D model updates as the 2D plan changes. Users can make furnished plan views and exterior renders with selectable materials, colors, and architectural styles. Plans can be downloaded as PDF, AutoCAD DXF, or IFC, and generated directly inside Revit through a free add-in. That add-in creates editable Revit building elements and syncs designs to a Drafted account. Projects can be shared with invited collaborators using Full-Access, Review, or View Only permissions. The web and Windows product supports imperial and metric measurements. Both Drafted and its Revit add-in are free to use. Revit output is limited to single-family, single-story residential designs; it does not cover multi-story, multi-family, or commercial projects. Drafted says its plans are schematic and do not check building codes, so a qualified professional should review them before construction.

Who it suits

Drafted suits homebuyers, architects, builders, developers, and drafters who need to create and refine residential floor plans. Its Revit add-in is intended for single-family, single-story designs rather than multi-story, multi-family, or commercial projects.
