Choose project fit first. Package access never overrides supported-scenario checks or safety stops.
Quick answer
Catio Plan Packages, explained
CatioPlanner offers Free, Basic, and Custom paths for different planning needs. Free templates remain unpublished until verified; Basic covers one supported project with core coordinated files; Custom adds expanded build files, editable project data, and more recalculations. Every option remains a planning aid and requires independent checks of dimensions, structure, anchoring, permits, and local rules.

Common questions
What is the difference between Basic and Custom?
Basic provides the core coordinated files for one supported project. Custom includes those files plus a cut list, tool list, cost range, editable Project JSON, and additional recalculations.
Are verified free templates available now?
Not yet. The Free library remains in verification, and no template is published until its measurements, materials, instructions, and safety boundaries are checked.
Does buying a package make the plan construction-ready?
No. Every package is a DIY planning aid. Dimensions, site conditions, structural loads, anchoring, permits, and local code requirements still need independent verification.
