Looking for a Room Planner Alternative?
Intero offers free AI-powered room redesign with 30+ styles, style matching, and a native mobile app.
Room Planner is a useful app for visualizing IKEA furniture in your space, but it limits you to a single brand ecosystem and a manual placement workflow. Intero opens up the full spectrum of interior design — 30+ styles, AI-powered transformations, and brand-agnostic inspiration that helps you discover your aesthetic regardless of where you shop. If you want design ideas beyond the IKEA catalog, Intero is the broader, smarter alternative.
Why Choose Intero Over Room Planner
Brand-Agnostic Design
Room Planner is tied to the IKEA catalog. Intero generates style-based designs that inspire purchases from any store, giving you more creative freedom.
AI-Powered Instant Redesign
Instead of manually placing individual IKEA products, Intero transforms your entire room into a cohesive design in seconds using AI.
30+ Design Styles
Room Planner shows you IKEA products in your room. Intero shows you 30+ complete design aesthetics — from minimalist and japandi to art deco and industrial.
Style Discovery
Intero helps you discover which design styles work in your space before deciding where to shop. Room Planner assumes you already know you want IKEA.
No Manual Placement
Intero AI handles furniture arrangement, color coordination, and accessory styling automatically. Room Planner requires dragging and positioning each item manually.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1 Can I buy the furniture I see in Intero?
Intero generates design visualizations as style inspiration, not linked to specific products. Use the AI results as a visual shopping guide at any furniture retailer — IKEA included.
Q2 Is Room Planner better for IKEA shopping?
Yes. If you specifically want to preview IKEA products in your room, Room Planner is purpose-built for that. Intero is better for exploring design styles first, then deciding where and what to buy.
Q3 Does Intero have AR features like Room Planner?
Intero uses photo-based AI transformation rather than AR product placement. The approach is different — Intero shows you a complete styled room, while Room Planner lets you place individual products in your space.
