Maket has released AI Editing, a conversational floor plan editing layer that lets users modify residential layouts by typing plain-language commands inside the platform. The feature is live and available to all users, marking the most substantial update in the platform's v2 rollout that began in the first quarter of 2026.

The workflow starts with plan generation. A user describes their requirements to the AI: total square footage, preferred room count, lot shape, and any specific spatial needs. The system produces a complete, dimensioned layout within two to three minutes. AI Editing then takes over. Commands such as "add an office," "swap the kitchen and dining room," "rotate the plan 180 degrees," or "make the living room bigger" are interpreted by the system, which applies the structural changes to the canvas in real time. The AI explains its reasoning as it works, flagging spatial trade-offs like reduced corridor access or altered room adjacency, so users understand the consequences of each change before committing. The exchange reads less like software operation and more like a back-and-forth with a designer.
Until this update, editing a generated floor plan meant dragging walls manually on a canvas, a workflow that loses coherence when multiple rooms are in play. The conversational editing layer removes that barrier for homeowners, residential builders, and real estate professionals who need to iterate at speed during the exploration phase. Patrick Murphy, Maket's CEO, has described the platform as handling roughly 70 to 75 percent of the schematic work, with the final structural review and code compliance remaining in the hands of licensed professionals. AI Editing is the part of that 70 percent the company is betting will be most visible: the moment a user types a change and watches the plan respond.

The feature sits within the broader v2 workspace, which also covers interior visualization, style application, and CAD-compatible DXF export for professional handoffs. The next announced capability is the ability to upload an existing floor plan and edit it through the same conversational interface, extending AI Editing from new construction to renovation scenarios where users are working from a layout that already exists.

Maket was founded in Montreal in 2020 by CEO Murphy, COO Stephane Turbide, and CPO Simon Vallee, who previously held senior product roles at Figma and Slack. The company raised $3.7 million CAD in seed funding led by Amiral Ventures, with participation from Blitzscaling Ventures, BY Venture Partners, Hidden Layers, and Spatial Capital. It has grown to more than one million registered users since its public launch in 2023. The v2 platform is available on a free trial with paid plans starting at $20 per month, targeting consumers, builders, and prefabrication manufacturers who currently rely on separate tools across each stage of early residential design.
