Planner 5D alternative: Styly compared (2026)
Planner 5D is a home and floor-plan design platform for non-professionals, with AI features added. Styly generates redesigns from a photo. Here is how they compare.
What Planner 5D does well
Planner 5D has been around since 2011, runs on web, iOS, Android, Windows, macOS and visionOS, offers a free plan with no time limit, and has had AI floor-plan recognition since 2019. It is available in French and in 13 languages overall.

Why pick Styly
- You want your uploads kept out of AI training: Planner 5D’s policy says anonymised user content may be used to train its AI; ours are not retained or used for training.
- You are a student: our free credits are available to students directly with their school address; Planner 5D’s education accounts are held by schools or teachers.
- You want a render of your own room from a photo rather than a floor-plan workflow.
And if Planner 5D fits you better?
If you want to lay out a house or garden in 2D and 3D across web, mobile and desktop apps, Planner 5D is built for that and Styly is not.

How this comparison is made
Every row about the other tool comes from its own public pages (pricing, privacy, terms, about, FAQ), read on the date above. “Not stated on the pages we checked” means we did not find it there; it is not an accusation. Prices and terms change, so confirm them with the vendor before deciding. We do not publish verdicts on a competitor’s output quality, because we have not measured it under the same conditions.
