  • Every change arrives as a proposal you review before anything moves
  • Apply it in one step, and undo it in one step
  • Works on blank maps, existing maps and imported drawings

What You Can Ask For

  • A Floor Plan From One Sentence

    Describe the hall, walls, doors, halls and booths in one message. The assistant builds it in phases you approve one at a time.

    “Build a 300 by 200 ft hall with two halls and 10x10 booths numbered from 100.”

  • Compare Layouts Before You Commit

    Get two or three versions side by side, measured on booths, sellable space, revenue at list price and walking distance.

    “Show me 3 options for filling Hall B.”

  • Complex Layouts, Zero Drafting

    Centerpieces, rings around a stage, cross aisles and a mix of booth sizes, laid out clear of everything already on the floor.

    “Put a 30x30 in the middle of Hall B, 10x10s all around it, and aisles leading in.”

  • Price Premium Inventory in Seconds

    Create booth types with their price and put them on the right booths by name: corners, islands, end-caps or a whole hall.

    “Make every corner booth in Hall A Premium at $3,200.”

  • Catch Problems Before Exhibitors Do

    Check the map against your own rules for aisle widths and door clearance, then fix every problem in one click.

    “Check my map against our 12 ft aisle rule, and fix it.”

  • Turn a Drawing Into a Live Map

    Import your venue's floor plan and the assistant traces the walls, doors, halls and numbered booths onto the map for you to review.

    “Trace this floor plan drawing.”

And much more:
  • Attendee walking paths
  • Tables and seating
  • Sponsor images
  • Hall labels and arrows
  • Exhibitor assignments
  • Sale status and holds
  • Numbering by aisle
  • Undo by asking
  • Insights from last year

What is Map D's AI Floor Plan Assistant?

It's an AI assistant built into the Map D floor plan editor. You describe what you want in plain English, like the hall size, the booth layout or prices, and it drafts the change on your map. You can build a floor plan from scratch, edit an existing one by name, compare layout options or check the map for problems.

Does the AI change my floor plan without asking?

No. Every change arrives as a proposal that shows exactly what will be added, moved or repriced, with before-and-after numbers. Nothing changes until you apply it, you can leave out individual changes, and one undo reverses the whole change.

Can the AI work from my venue's existing floor plan?

Yes. Import the venue drawing into the map editor and ask the assistant to trace it. It reads the walls, doors, halls and booth numbers and drafts them onto the map for you to review.

What is interactive floor plan software for trade shows?

It’s a digital, zoomable map that shows every booth’s size, price and status in real time, letting exhibitors and attendees explore the hall online before the event.

How does Map D’s interactive floor plan software work?

Drag-and-drop tools let organizers design halls, set pricing tiers, and publish instantly. Exhibitors click to purchase; the plan updates automatically—no double booking.

Can exhibitors reserve or upgrade booths directly on the map?

Yes. Self-service checkout with secure payment lets exhibitors select, pay and receive confirmation in minutes, reducing back-and-forth emails.

Does the floor plan embed on my association website?

Simply copy a code snippet; the map stays mobile-responsive and syncs live with Map D so data never goes stale.

Is filtering and search available for attendees?

Visitors can filter by category, company name, sponsorship level or keywords, making it easy to find the right exhibitors fast.

Will the plan update when a booth sells offline?

Admins can mark booths as sold or held; the map refreshes for all users in real time and logs the transaction.

What integrations are supported?

The floor plan syncs with AMS/CRM, registration and payment gateways via Map D’s open API for seamless data flow.
