Grok has a specific GDPR concern. No EU hosting, and training is on by default (opt-out). Less suitable for confidential or regulated data. Weigh this heavily before using it in interior design.
Confidentiality and GDPR
GDPR: CautionClient room photos are often personal data: they show the home and sometimes people, addresses or personal belongings. Check what happens to uploads in each tool. Coohom may use your uploads and outputs for model training without opt-out under its terms, RaumKI and Planner 5D use (anonymised) data for their own models, Gendo does so on the free plan and ReimagineHome only for its own models with opt-out. Archicad AI Visualizer and Veras say they do not use your data for training, RoomSketcher only with your permission. Many tools process images in the US or Asia (Coohom and Homestyler mention China). For client photos, obtain consent, remove identifiable details and choose a tool with a data processing agreement for project data.
No EU data residency; data goes to the US under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. X/Grok uses public posts and conversations for training by default, with opt-out. Subject of GDPR investigation by the Irish DPC.
