Synaps
Synaps is a browser-based architectural design canvas that combines AI-assisted drafting, floor plan tracing, asset libraries, and presentation-ready visuals so teams can explore layouts on one shared surface.
Synaps markets itself as an AI canvas for architectural design where users draft, visualize, collaborate, and present without jumping between disconnected viewers (Synaps marketing site, 2026).
The pricing section lists a freemium entry with monthly or yearly billing, a Pro tier at $35 per editor per month on a monthly bill, and a Studio tier at $75 per editor per month with higher limits and support options (Synaps pricing section, 2026). Credit allowances and export limits differ by tier, so confirm the current feature matrix on the site before purchase.
Feature blocks describe an AI floor plan tracer that turns raster references into walls, AI-assisted draft-to-scene workflows, drag-and-drop asset libraries, and collaborative sketching with comments on a shared canvas.
Because the experience is web-first, teams can trial flows quickly, though heavy models and offline use should be validated against the vendor???s stated limits for each plan.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Synaps cost per editor?
The public pricing block lists Pro at $35 per editor per month billed monthly and Studio at $75 per editor per month, with a free tier that includes limited credits and libraries. Confirm current numbers on synaps.app because offers change.
Does Synaps replace Revit or Archicad?
Synaps is positioned for AI-assisted canvas work, tracing, and presentation. Most firms will still use a BIM authoring tool for construction-grade models, sheets, and fabrication data.
Can Synaps open DWG or IFC files?
The marketing page stresses image tracing and canvas workflows rather than full CAD or openBIM exchange. Ask the vendor for the latest import and export list if you need specific formats.
Is Synaps only for solo designers?
Studio pricing references multiple editors and collaboration features. Small studios and larger teams are both named, but seat math should match how you run critiques and production.
Does Synaps run offline?
The product is presented as a web application, so offline use is unlikely unless the vendor documents a desktop or offline mode. Treat it as online-first.
