Sketch to Floor Plan for Architects — Site Sketches to Clean Digital Plans
Roomagen Sketch to Floor Plan for Architects enables instant digitization of site visit sketches, preliminary layouts, and design explorations — replacing hours of manual CAD redrawing with 90-second AI conversion.
Architects sketch constantly — during site visits, client meetings, design charettes, and brainstorming sessions. These sketches capture valuable design thinking but remain trapped on paper until a junior architect redraws them in CAD (2–4 hours per plan). This digitization bottleneck delays client presentations and wastes skilled labor on routine tracing. Roomagen digitizes architectural sketches in under 90 seconds for 2 credits, freeing junior architects for design work.
Features
Convert site visit sketches, early layouts and design studies into clean digital floor plans with AI, usually in under a minute, with no redrawing by hand.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Roomagen
Junior architects spend 2–4 hours per plan redrawing sketches in CAD. Roomagen does this in 90 seconds. A firm producing 10 sketches per week saves 20–40 hours of junior staff time weekly.
Yes. Photograph sketch pages from notebooks, trace paper, or field books. The AI extracts floor plan layouts from any sketch medium, regardless of paper type or drawing tool.
Yes. Trace paper sketches are common in architecture. Photograph with good lighting (backlit if possible) to ensure line visibility. The AI handles the semi-transparent medium well.
Yes. Design charettes produce multiple quick layout options. Photograph each sketch and digitize the full set. Compare 10+ schematic options as clean digital plans in under 15 minutes.
Roomagen output is a clean digital image with straight lines and room labels — presentation quality for client meetings. For dimensioned construction documents, CAD remains necessary.
The output is a high-resolution image that can be imported as a reference layer in AutoCAD, Revit, or ArchiCAD. This reference underlay reduces CAD redrawing time by 60–80%.
Very. Design competitions require multiple layout explorations. Digitize all sketch options quickly and select the strongest for detailed development. Speed advantage allows more exploration before deadlines.
Common symbols — door swings, windows, stairs — are interpreted when drawn clearly using standard conventions. Specialty symbols may need manual addition in the final document.
Yes. The BUSINESS plan supports firm-wide workflows. Partners, project architects, and designers can all submit sketches for digitization under one account.
PRO plan ($29/month, 200 credits) covers 100 sketch digitizations. BUSINESS plan ($79/month, 700 credits) for larger firms. Compare to $80–$320 per sketch in junior architect CAD time.
