HOW IT WORKS • Create a renovation project for an interior room or exterior space. • Capture a new photo or choose an existing image. • Describe the colors, style, materials, and changes you want. • Receive an AI-assisted project report. • Generate a concept image to visualize the proposed transformation. • Save projects and return to them later. PROJECT REPORTS Depending on the project details, My Reno App can provide: • Design overview • Planning-grade cost range • Estimated project timeline • Risk considerations • Suggested scope of work AI-POWERED VISUALIZATION Use written instructions to explore design directions while retaining important architectural features. Generated images are concepts and may not precisely represent dimensions, materials, construction feasibility, or the final completed result. IMPORTANT NOTICE Reports, cost ranges, timelines, risk information, scopes of work, and generated images are for preliminary planning and visualization only. They are not architectural, engineering, inspection, contractor, legal, financial, or safety advice. Verify site conditions, measurements, costs, permits, codes, and construction decisions with qualified local professionals before starting work. My Reno App helps you organize renovation ideas, explore possible designs, and prepare more informed questions before speaking with contractors and other professionals.
