Pricing & licensing
How much does AI garden design cost?
The short answer
AI Garden Design starts at $19/month (Personal, billed yearly) and scales to $199/month for the largest plan. For comparison: Yardzen costs $1,500–$8,000 per project; a local landscape designer charges $2,000–$10,000 per plan; iScape Pro is roughly $300/year for AR placement.
AI design tools are dramatically cheaper than the alternatives. The cheapest reasonable alternative. Tilly Design's entry package, starts around $649 for a single project. AI Garden Design's Pro plan, with 1,000 designs per year, commercial license, no watermark, and highest resolution, costs $828 for a full year of unlimited use.
The pricing trade-off is what you get for the money. Yardzen, Tilly, and a local landscape designer deliver a finished design package, a custom plant list specified to your climate, and (sometimes) a contractor matchmaking service. AI Garden Design delivers a photoreal visualisation of any style you can imagine, on any photo, in any number of iterations.
Many homeowners use both. AI Garden Design upstream to explore styles cheaply and lock in the direction, then a Yardzen or local designer downstream for the build-ready documentation. The combined cost is still less than commissioning the human designer from scratch and the first draft hits the brief.
Related questions
Is AI Garden Design free?
The AI design generator is a paid tool: plans start at $19/month billed yearly (Personal, 250 designs/month) and run up to $199/month (Team, 5,000 designs/month, five seats). If you only want feedback on your space, our AI garden design advice tool is free with no signup.
AI Garden Design vs Yardzen, which is better?
Yardzen is better if you want one finished, build-ready plan from a human designer and have $1,500+ to spend. AI Garden Design is better if you want to explore many styles quickly, iterate without limits, or preview many styles cheaply before committing to a build. Many users do both.
What is the cheapest way to design a garden?
The cheapest reasonable path is to use AI Garden Design ($19/month) to lock in the style, then DIY the build with planting from a local nursery and second-hand furniture. Total design cost: roughly $0–$228 depending on whether you subscribe.
Can I use AI Garden Design output commercially?
Yes, on the Pro and Team plans. Pro ($69/month yearly) includes a commercial license, no watermark, and highest-resolution exports, built for landscape designers, contractors, and real-estate professionals. The Personal plan is for non-commercial personal use.
