How it works

From a bare site to a buildable sheet, in four moves.

Draw your site

Trace the boundary or drop in a survey. Set the scale once.

Set your zones

Paint planting areas and pick a palette of climate-adapted plants.

Generate a plan

PLAEON lays out a naturalistic, non-overlapping planting, instantly. Reshuffle until it sings.

Export pro sheets

Dimensioned, title-blocked, to scale. PDF and PNG, with plan and elevation views.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What plants are in the library?

Native and climate-adapted species, each with a plan symbol and a realistic render. We're starting with California and expanding region by region.

What can I export?

Dimensioned, title-blocked sheets drawn to scale, with plan and elevation views, as PDF and PNG. A sheet your installer can build from.

How much does it cost?

The private beta is free. Join the waitlist and you'll help shape pricing before public launch.

Do I need to be a landscape designer?

PLAEON is built for pros, but the flow is simple: draw, zone, generate. Anyone comfortable sketching a site can use it.

Can I use my own site plan?

Today you trace the boundary and set the scale by hand. Scaled site-image import and guided onboarding arrive in open beta.

Does it work on mobile?

The mobile experience is still in development. You'll be able to review a plan, make quick edits, and share a PDF right from the field. For now, PLAEON works best on desktop.
