Overview

RoomSketcher brings floor-plan creation, room furnishing and 3D presentation into one home-design tool. It is best suited to homeowners and property or design professionals who need to make and present layouts; the range of output formats is a strong draw, but credit use and the inability to edit plans on phones may rule it out for some workflows.

Founded in 2007 and based in Lysaker, Norway, RoomSketcher says it serves more than 10 million users across more than 170 countries. Its audience includes homeowners, design enthusiasts, real estate professionals, agents, resellers, designers and contractors.

Key features

AI Convert turns an existing JPG, PNG or PDF floor plan into an editable project by mapping its walls, doors and windows in under five seconds. That makes it a useful starting point when a plan already exists. For capturing a property on site, FloorCapture uses LiDAR on an iPhone or iPad to create an editable floor plan.

Once a layout is ready, users can furnish and decorate rooms, then create 2D and 3D floor plans, 3D photos, AI renders, 360 views and Live 3D walkthroughs. The variety supports both planning and presentation, though credits apply to projects and many outputs and capture options: projects, 3D floor plans, 3D photos, 360 views, AI Convert, FloorCapture and ordered floor plans. Frequent use can therefore make the monthly credit allowance a practical constraint.

Cloud-stored projects are accessible across devices, and the app can work offline before syncing when it reconnects. Customers who would rather outsource plan production can upload a sketch or blueprint and receive completed 2D and 3D floor plans by the next business day.

The service offers chat, email support with a stated 1–2 business-day response time, webinars and a Help Center. Business users can also get 1:1 training. Mspecs and Vitec integrations support ordering, delivery, editing and downloading floor plans; API integration is an Enterprise feature. RoomSketcher says it uses physical, electronic and procedural safeguards, encrypts transaction information over industry-standard connections and limits access to authorized personnel with a legitimate need to know.

Pricing

The Free plan costs 0.00 USD per free and includes two starter credits, one free AI floor plan conversion, 2D and 3D floor plans, 3D snapshots, AI Render and the option to add credits. It is a way to try the core workflow, but the initial credit supply and single conversion make it a limited choice for ongoing production.

Pro is aimed at individual users who need more presentation options. Both billing choices include five credits every month, the complete furniture library, 3D floor plans, 3D photos, 360 views, branding, print-to-scale output, measurements and total area. Pro (annual billing) is 12.00 USD per month, billed as $144 per year and renewing annually. Pro (monthly billing) is 24.00 USD per month, billed as $24 per month and cancellable anytime. The annual option costs less per month but commits the buyer to yearly renewal; either option still has a five-credit monthly allowance.

Team adds collaboration and support for a group: five users, 20 credits every month, a dedicated customer manager, 1:1 onboarding and training, a larger project archive and project collaboration. Team (annual billing) is 35.00 USD per month, billed as $420 per year and renewing annually. Team (monthly billing) is 70.00 USD per month, billed as $70 per month and cancellable anytime. The larger allowance and included seats make it the more relevant tier for shared work, while the annual price carries the same renewal trade-off.

Enterprise has custom pricing and includes unlimited users, unlimited customer profiles, API integration, custom branding setup and priority support with a custom SLA. It is for organizations that need those account-level capabilities rather than a fixed-seat plan.

Platforms

RoomSketcher supports Android, iOS, macOS, web and Windows. Its app is available on Windows, Mac, iPad and Android tablets, but phones use the web portal and cannot draw or edit floor plans in the app. That distinction matters for field work: an iPhone or iPad can support LiDAR FloorCapture, but phone-based plan editing is not part of the app workflow.

Who it's for

RoomSketcher is a strong fit for homeowners, interior design enthusiasts and property professionals who need to build layouts and communicate them through more than a flat plan. Real estate agents, resellers, designers and contractors can also benefit from its presentation formats, ordering service and collaboration options. It is less suitable for users who need to edit plans on a phone or expect high-volume use to fit within a small credit allowance.

Pros and cons

Pros: Several presentation formats, including AI renders, Live 3D walkthroughs and 360 views, let users take a design beyond a basic floor plan.
Pros: AI Convert and LiDAR FloorCapture offer distinct ways to turn an existing plan or an on-site scan into an editable project.
Pros: Offline work with later cloud sync is useful when a project takes place away from a reliable connection.
Cons: Credits cover projects as well as capture and output options, so the included five monthly Pro credits may limit users who rely on these functions often.
Cons: Phones cannot draw or edit floor plans in the app, making a tablet or computer necessary for that work.
Cons: Monthly billing costs more than annual billing for both Pro and Team; choosing the lower monthly rate means accepting annual renewal.

Alternatives

For a different focus, consider CMS IntelliCAD, ProfiCAD, OpenPlan3D, Floorplanner, NASJI, magicplan, nanoCAD or AutoCAD.

Choose CMS IntelliCAD if DWG, DXF or DWF viewing on Android or Windows is the priority: its free ETOOLBOX CAD Viewer covers 2D and 3D viewing. ProfiCAD is an option for someone who wants to try a full version free for 30 days without a credit card, or use its free Home license.

OpenPlan3D is worth considering if open-source software is important; its editor is available under the MIT License. Floorplanner may suit users who want a free account with up to five projects, three floors and three designs per project, accepting SD exports with a watermark.

NASJI is another freemium option. magicplan may suit project-based work where plans start at 10 new projects per month and include unlimited users. For Windows drafting, compare nanoCAD; for a paid CAD alternative with Android, iOS, Mac, web and Windows platforms, consider AutoCAD.

Readers comparing the broader categories can also browse 2D CAD Software, AI Floor Plan Generators, 3D Home Design Software, Floor Plan Software and 3D Visualization Software.

Verdict

RoomSketcher is a solid choice for homeowners and property or design professionals who need editable plans and a broad set of ways to present them. Its strongest reason to choose it is the combination of plan creation, capture and 3D visualization in one workflow. Look elsewhere if phone-based editing is essential, or if recurring credit use and annual billing do not suit the way you work.
