Maket 2.0 is an AI home design studio that turns a plain-language description into an editable residential floor plan, then renders rooms in 3D. Built by Montreal startup Maket (founders Patrick Murphy, Stephane Turbide and Simon Vallee, public since 2023 with 1M+ registered users), it targets homeowners, renovators, builders and real-estate professionals who want architect-quality layouts without CAD software or a design degree. The October 2026 release adds conversational plan editing and a Regulatory and Zoning Assistant.
Core Features
- Conversational floor-plan generation: describe rooms, square footage and floors, and the assistant asks clarifying questions before drawing a build-ready layout.
- Chat-based editing: type "add a bedroom" or "make the kitchen 20 percent larger" and the canvas updates while keeping circulation and room adjacency coherent.
- Upload existing plans: import a PDF or image of a current layout and convert it into an editable Maket project for renovations.
- 3D Virtual Designer: render any room in styles like Minimalist or Scandinavian, or use your own reference image.
- Export and compliance: save plans as PDF or DXF for CAD, and the Zoning Assistant flags local building-code issues early.
Use Cases
- Homeowners planning a renovation, garage conversion or basement project.
- Builders and developers testing several layout options before committing to drawings.
- Real-estate agents producing quick visual concepts to show prospects.
Pricing
Maket 2.0 uses a credit system. A free plan gives 30 one-time credits with no card. The Homeowner plan costs $20 per month for 300 credits; the Pro plan is $100 per month for 3,000 credits, with custom pricing for larger teams. Generating or uploading a floor plan uses 20 credits, a render uses 10, and a layout optimization uses 5.
Our Take
Best for homeowners and small studios who want to explore layouts before hiring an architect. The trade-off is that Maket is explicitly a pre-design tool — a licensed professional must still review and stamp anything headed for construction. If you need production blueprints, pair it with a real architect rather than treating the export as final. Browse more options in our AI design tools directory.
