In many cases, yes. Drafted helps with early-stage ideation and planning clarity, to make the process more efficient and more personal. Architects, builders, engineers, and other professionals are still important for permitting and final project execution.

Drafted's AI floor plan generator does not use a free-form text prompt; it generates plans from structured inputs including a room list, lot size, house shape, and optional room placements on a canvas. This gives users more control than prompt-based floor plan generators because the AI is guided by explicit spatial and design constraints.

Important layout decisions include flow between rooms, privacy, openness, natural light, storage, bedroom placement, indoor-outdoor connections, and how daily routines move through the home.
