Planby Technologies

Planby Technologies is a web-based, SaaS spatial design platform for architects, interior designers, and retail organizations that uses generative AI to speed up early-stage architectural planning and visualization. Planby Technologies develops an AI-powered platform called Plana (formerly Planby Studio) that generates photorealistic 3D renders, architectural drafts, and virtual renovations from simple text prompts or reference images in under a minute.

Key capabilities include:

• AI visualization and rendering that turns sketches, reference images, or models into consistent, production-usable visual materials
• Retail and pop-up store concept generation, producing alternate design directions from minimal inputs such as brand colors and design keywords, while accounting for physical space constraints
• Bird’s-eye views and floor plans to support layout exploration and faster stakeholder alignment
• Architecture ontology (knowledge system) that structures project data (for example, regulations, RFIs, defects, and project records) so teams can search, reuse, and apply it across workflows

Pricing: Unknown.

What makes it notable is its focus on AI-first spatial workflows for B2B retail and AEC teams, including specialized models trained on existing retail store designs to generate brand-consistent alternatives, plus options to operationalize outputs as a standardized internal workflow rather than a one-off visualization tool.
