Homeowners & DIYers

From a photo to a priced, permit-aware plan.

The problem: Inspiration photos don't tell you what it costs, what to buy, or whether you need a permit.

  1. 1

    Show the real space

    Upload a photo, describe the change, and get design directions and an illustrated preview of your own room.

  2. 2

    Price it and check the rules

    Get a traceable shopping list with retailer evidence and a permit plan matched to your city or township's official pages.

  3. 3

    Build on a timeline that adapts

    Inspections land where they belong, and the schedule shifts when a step runs late.

Visual concepts

Compare directions and request a revised outcome instead of settling for one shot.

Design-to-cart traceability

See the locked design decision, measurements, waste, pack math, confidence, and retailer evidence behind every item.

Local permit planner

Trace likely zoning, code, documents, fees, and inspections to official local sources.

Jobsite + smart store trips

Compare fewest stops with lowest sourced total, then track purchased, used, returned, and still-needed materials.

What you get

What you get beyond the first plan

Compare and lock a design

Every design generation is saved as a version, so you can flip between runs and lock the concept your build starts from.

Permits as timeline steps

Permits and inspections become real steps on your timeline, and the permit packet exports as a PDF.

Chat that knows your build

Project chat answers with your photo, project details, and design directions in context.

Progress photos on the timeline

Attach photos to the steps they belong to and keep a build journal.
