Roomantic vs. Planner 5D
A Planner 5D alternative that starts from your room
Planner 5D is a polished mass-market design studio: draw or AI-recognize a plan, furnish from a large catalog, and render it photorealistically. Roomantic starts from the other end — your actual room, scanned, with the actual product you're buying.

The Roomantic difference
The furniture listing belongs on the floor plan
Across the products reviewed for these comparison pages, Roomantic was the only one whose public product workflow centers on pasting a retail furniture URL and placing the listing's measured footprint directly on the room plan.
01
Scan beats redraw
Planner 5D can recognize a floor-plan image you upload, but it can't capture the room itself. Roomantic measures the actual space with LiDAR, so the plan starts from reality rather than from a drawing of it.
02
The store page is the catalog
Even a 10,000-item catalog can't include the exact sofa on your shortlist. Roomantic imports the retailer listing you're considering and places its published footprint on the plan.
03
No unlock ladder for the basics
Half of Planner 5D's catalog, floor-plan recognition, and CAD export sit behind Premium or Professional. Roomantic's product import, room analysis, and plan exports are part of the core workflow.

Questions
FAQ
Is Roomantic a Planner 5D replacement for 3D design?
No. Planner 5D is the stronger and more appropriate choice for 3D decorating and photorealistic visualization. Roomantic does not currently offer 3D room viewing.
Can Planner 5D scan my room?
Its official pages describe uploading a floor-plan image or CAD file for AI recognition, not scanning a room with your phone. Roomantic's core workflow is a LiDAR scan that produces a measured 2D plan.
Why choose Roomantic instead of Planner 5D?
Choose Roomantic when the goal is a fit decision: a measured plan of your actual room with the actual product's published dimensions on it, plus room analysis and PDF, PNG, and DXF exports.
