| Summary | We have used PlanFinder with reasonable success as a plugin to Revit within our tests to create automated residential designs ….. |
|---|---|
| Accessibility | Very easy - however base data must be tidy enough for the algorithms to interpret. |
| Limitations | Operates from within an established CAD environment and is therefore not easily combined with other AI-Tools. |
| Specifics | One can presume, that the tool does not comply with any German building regulations. |
| Q&A | Developer -Team appears generally available for inquiries. |
| Manuals - There appears to be no specific documentation on the website. However - we didn’t have the need for one during testing. | |
| Videos - There are various videos on YouTube - (external link) | |
| Last evaluation | 02 April 2024 |
| Status | Candidate for retesting in 2025 |
| Note … | the range of functions might have evolved since our review! |
