Y Combinator's Drafted Compresses Hours of Home Design Work Into Seconds

Drafted, a Y Combinator P26 company, generates complete floor plans and exterior elevations in seconds from inputs including square footage, footprint shape, lot boundaries, and room constraints. The tool outputs designs in both 2D and 3D formats. Single-family residential design has resisted software productivity gains for decades, relying on 2D CAD and plan catalogs. Drafted's embedding of lot boundaries as a core input—rather than a post-design check—targets genuine workflow friction in early-stage constraint satisfaction.
