Show the client what it could be.

With the client

Answer "what would it look like" in the meeting.

Render the swap while the client is still in the chair, then stage it in a room. Send a link after the meeting so they can show their partner.

Questions

Are the renders real products?

They are AI renders of a product with the change you asked for, labeled as renders everywhere. Production still starts from the maker's drawings and a sample.

How is the estimate made?

From the design's spec: materials, finish, hardware, labor and overhead at the rates in your account. It is an estimate for planning. The maker confirms the final price.

What does a render cost?

One credit per render. Analyzing an image, reviewing a board and sharing it cost nothing.

Can a design become a product I can quote?

Yes. Add it to your catalog after you confirm. It can then go into a collection or a quote.

Show your next client the idea.

$1,000 a month per showroom, setup quoted after a 30-minute call.

AI design studio

The AI design studio turns a photo or a sketch into a room board with real products from your brands, then estimates its cost.
