New Tool Designs Houses in Seconds Instead of Hours

Drafted, a startup backed by Y Combinator, creates complete home floor plans and exterior designs in seconds. You feed it your lot size, shape, property lines, and room needs—it outputs finished plans in both flat drawings and 3D models. Home design has relied on manual work and old software for decades. Drafted's breakthrough: it bakes property boundaries into the design process from the start, rather than checking them afterward, cutting out a major time sink.
