End Renovation Chaos
Photos to draft plans in under 60 seconds. Homeowners and contractors finally on the same page.
The $600B Misalignment Tax
Hidden inefficiencies between homeowners and contractors paralyze $600 billion in home equity.
Homeowners
- What are my real options?
- Afraid of getting ripped off
- Every contractor gives different scope
- Can't visualize the final result
Contractors
- Homeowners don't know what they want
- Every job starts correcting assumptions
- $300+ wasted per unvetted site visit
- 30–40% uncertainty baked into bids
The result: Homeowners lack clarity. Contractors waste time. Projects get delayed, budgets balloon, and $600B in home equity remains untapped.

How PlanDojo Works
From photos to actionable plans in seconds. An intelligent system that speaks both homeowner and contractor.
Homeowner Uploads Photos
Send photos of your space via web or messaging. Tell us what you're dreaming of.
AURA AI Infers Everything
Geometry, materials, depth, layout—all extracted from your photos in under 60 seconds.
Draft Plan Generated
Detailed scope, timeline, materials list, and budget estimate—all auto-generated.
Contractor Feedback Loop
Contractors review, correct, and provide expert estimates. Each correction improves the AI.
Photos to Scope in < 60 Seconds
Our inference engine builds the draft plan in the background while you interact conversationally.
Capture
Homeowner sends photos of their space
Infer
System measures: ceiling height, counters, cabinets, layout, materials
Plan
Draft scope, timeline, and budget in < 60 seconds
We are not another lead-gen platform. We build the bridge of trust through verified scope, not just qualified leads.
Example: Kitchen Backsplash Scope
This is what contractors receive. Auto-generated from photos, ready for field verification.
Before & After Reference
The images provide spatial context so contractors understand the homeowner's target look. Contractor must verify all measurements on-site before final pricing.
Existing Conditions (From Photos)
- Standard 36" countertop height
- Backsplash runs along main counter wall and wraps left side of window return
- Existing grout lines standard width (⅛")
- Substrate: Drywall (standard, no prep required)
Proposed Scope
- Remove existing backsplash tile and grout
- Prepare substrate: Clean, level, prime
- Install new subway tile with ⅛" grout lines
- Seal grout per manufacturer specs
- Window return trim finish
Timeline Estimate
- Day 1: Demolition & substrate prep (4-6 hours)
- Days 2-3: Tile installation & grouting (8-10 hours)
- Day 4: Grout sealing & cleanup (2 hours)
Budget Breakdown
🧑🔧 Contractor Notes
This scope was auto-generated from homeowner photos by PlanDojo. Use this as your baseline:
- Refine cost based on local market rates
- Verify all measurements during site visit
- Suggest material alternatives (premium tile, grout colors)
- Note any existing conditions requiring adjustment
Critical: Each correction you provide improves our AI's accuracy for future homeowners. Your expertise is the moat.
The Intelligence Flywheel
Every project tightens the loop between AI and contractor reality.
Homeowner uploads photos
AURA generates draft plan
Contractor reviews & corrects
Corrections feed back into AURA
Model improves (50% → 75% → 85%+ accuracy)
Every contractor correction becomes training data. Spatial precision improves over time, widening the gap from generalist AI.
Homeowners get clarity. Contractors get pre-scoped leads. AI gets smarter. Everyone wins.
We own the pre-bid alignment layer—the new standard between homeowners and contractors.
Why Now?
Three forces converge: better AI, frustrated contractors, and inflation-weary homeowners.
🤖 Frontier AI Models
Multimodal models now infer geometry, materials, depth, and layout from a single photo with high fidelity.
Photo → Structured Scope Plan is finally possible.
🏗️ Contractor Economics
30–40% of contractor effort wasted on unqualified leads and triage. They will engage for pre-scoped homeowners.
Clear scope = faster, better bids.
📈 Homeowner Behavior
Inflation made opaque pricing unacceptable. Homeowners demand clarity on scope before committing capital.
Equity unlock: Clarity = Confidence.
Market Positioning: We Own the Alignment Layer
Angi, Thumbtack, Houzz (low intent, high noise)
Photo-to-Scope Pre-Bid Qualification (AUTHENTICATED INTENT)
Buildertrend, Joist, Procore (project execution)
The insight: Marketplaces sell leads and hope for alignment. We sell authenticated scope and build trust. That's a different business.
Our Defensible Advantages
- Pre-Bid Intelligence: We replace "unqualified lead" with "verified scope." Contractors actually trust it.
- Compounding Moat: Each contractor correction improves AURA's spatial precision, widening the gap from ChatGPT.
- Zero-Friction Wedge: Homeowners get before/after clarity. Contractors get draft scope for free. Both come back.
