Ritn3D vs Planner 5D
Ritn3D and Planner 5D both produce 3D interiors, and both now let you draw a plan from scratch. The difference is what happens around the drawing. Ritn3D adds AI conversion — upload a floor plan photo or PDF and get a walkable 3D interior in under two minutes with no drawing at all — and its drawing editor is free forever with unlimited plans and no watermark on exports. Planner 5D is the deeper interior-design studio, with a far larger decor and furniture catalog for styling a space. Ritn3D is also the only floor plan to 3D tool built for phones, with native iOS, Android, Windows, and web on one account. This page compares them side by side.

Pricing Comparison
Ritn3D Pro is $9.99/month with a 7-day free trial and includes 20 AI-powered renders, Full HD textures, walkthrough mode, and 90-day cloud sync. Ritn3D Pro+ at $19.99/month adds STL downloads for 3D printing and GLB exports. The free tier offers 3 renders per month at standard quality. Planner 5D's Premium plan is $19.99/month when billed monthly — the same price as Ritn3D Pro+, but without AI floor plan detection or STL export. Planner 5D does offer a lower annual rate ($59.99/year), but if you already have floor plans and need fast 3D visualization or physical models, Ritn3D delivers more value for the same monthly spend.
When to Use Each
Choose Ritn3D if you already have a floor plan and want to see it in 3D quickly, or if you want to draw one without paying. Real estate agents, architects reviewing existing plans, and homeowners with printed blueprints benefit most from the AI conversion workflow — upload an image or PDF and get an interactive 3D model in under two minutes with no manual drawing. If you have no plan, Ritn3D's editor lets you draw or trace one for free, with unlimited plans and unwatermarked JPG and PDF exports, then convert it to 3D. Choose Planner 5D if the job is interior decoration rather than the floor plan itself. Planner 5D's furniture and material catalog is substantially larger, and its decoration tools are better for experimenting with styling, colour schemes, and furnishing a space in detail.
Our Verdict
Both tools let you draw a floor plan from scratch, so the choice is no longer about whether you have a plan. Ritn3D wins on two things: AI conversion of an existing plan into a walkable 3D model in under two minutes, and a genuinely free drawing tool with unlimited plans and no watermark on exports. It also exports STL for 3D printing, which Planner 5D does not. Planner 5D wins on decor depth — its furniture and material catalog is far larger, and its free tier watermarks every render and locks about half that catalog behind Premium. If you want fast floor-plan-to-3D or a free unlimited drawing tool, pick Ritn3D. If you want a full interior-design studio to furnish and style a space, pick Planner 5D.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know. Can’t find the answer you’re looking for? Feel free to reach out.
Planner 5D does not offer AI-based floor plan detection from photos or images. It is primarily a manual design tool where you create room layouts by drawing walls, placing doors, and adding furniture using its built-in editor. Ritn3D is specifically built around AI-powered conversion of existing floor plans.
Planner 5D allows you to use a floor plan image as a background reference that you trace over manually. However, it does not automatically detect walls or rooms from the image. You still need to draw the layout by hand on top of the reference image.
Ritn3D generates accurate 3D architectural models from floor plans, and Pro and Pro+ subscribers can drag and drop furniture — sofas, beds, tables, chairs and more — straight into the rooms. Planner 5D has a larger interior-design decor library, so for browsing thousands of decor items it is broader, but Ritn3D lets you furnish the model you already generated without redrawing anything.
Yes. Ritn3D runs as a web app at app.ritn3d.com and has native iOS, Android, and Windows apps — start a plan on your phone and open it later on desktop. Planner 5D is available on iOS, Android, and web with its full design toolset.
Ritn3D Pro+ ($19.99/month) includes 10 GLB or STL downloads per month, so you can take the geometry into other 3D software or send an STL straight to a 3D printer. Ritn3D Pro ($9.99/month) does not include downloads — Pro users share via an interactive link instead. Any tier can export the 2D floor plan itself as an unwatermarked JPG or PDF. Planner 5D offers HD image and video rendering of your designs rather than downloadable 3D geometry, and does not export STL for 3D printing.
You can draw from scratch. Ritn3D's floor plan editor lets you place walls, add doors and windows, and label rooms on your phone or in the browser, with automatic room detection as you close each loop. It is free forever with unlimited plans and no watermark on JPG or PDF exports — you only need a free Google or email sign-in. You can also import a photo, PDF, or MLS listing image and trace over it. An existing floor plan is only required if you want to skip drawing entirely and let the AI detect the layout for you.
Ritn3D's editor is free forever with unlimited plans, unlimited JPG and PDF downloads, and no watermark. Sign-in with Google or email is required to save your work and access the editor — no card, no phone number, takes about 10 seconds. Planner 5D's free tier is unlimited projects but every render is watermarked and low-res, and only about half of the catalog is available on free. Removing the watermark and unlocking the full catalog requires Premium at $4.99/month or $59.99/year (roughly $5/month annual). Only 3D conversion in Ritn3D is metered (free 3 per month, then Pro at $9.99/month) — drawing itself stays free forever.
