How it works

One real sketch, start to finish

A real 1922 sketch, read by Planel. Nothing retouched.

  1. A 1922 floor-plan sketch of a small teacher's house

    Bring the sketch

    A photo, scan, PDF, DXF or SVG, printed or hand-drawn.

  2. That sketch read into editable walls, doors and windows

    Check the plan

    Walls you can drag. Rooms appear where walls close.

  3. That sketch built as a 3D model

    Walk around it

    The 3D model follows every edit.

Questions

Is it free?+

Your first conversion is free with no account. A free account gets 3 credits every month; a credit converts one drawing. Free PDF and PNG exports carry a small Planel mark.

Do I need CAD experience?+

No. If you can sketch a room and click its corners, you can use Planel. When you need real CAD, export a DXF.

What makes a drawing convert well?+

A flat, well-lit photo from straight above, with clear wall lines. Writing the main sizes on a sketch lets Planel size it exactly.

Will it get every wall right?+

Not always. Printed plans read well; hand sketches vary. Anything uncertain is listed for you to check, and every wall stays editable.

Can I use feet and inches?+

Yes. Each project is stored in metres or feet, and you can switch how sizes are shown at any time.

Who can see my projects?+

Only you. Projects are private, and you can delete them, or the whole account, at any time.

Can I cancel a paid plan?+

Yes, from Settings. You keep access until the end of the period you paid for.
