Key Takeaways & FAQs
Can AI really turn a rough sketch into a professional map?
Yes. Modern AI is trained to interpret hand-drawn floor plans. It identifies walls, doors, rooms, and creates a clean, professional evacuation map from even rough sketches.
How detailed does my sketch need to be?
Basic is fine. Include walls, doorways, and approximate room shapes. The AI fills in the rest. Labels help but aren't required.
What if I draw something wrong?
You can request revisions, or simply sketch again and re-upload. The AI is forgiving of imperfect drawings.
