The idea for Renovate AI was born from a simple observation: while technology has transformed many industries, home renovation remains stuck in the past.

Homeowners still struggle with visualizing changes, architects spend hours on basic renderings, and contractors face constant communication challenges.

During his time at Compass, our founder Sid Sarasvati saw firsthand how crucial staging was for real estate listings, yet virtual staging remained expensive and time-consuming. Having led AI initiatives that transformed real estate transactions, he recognized an opportunity to revolutionize not just staging, but the entire visualization process for homes.
In 2022, we launched Renovate AI with a bold vision: to make professional architectural visualization accessible to everyone. Starting with a focus on exterior renovations, we built an AI system that could transform photos into realistic architectural renders in seconds. What traditionally took days and cost thousands could now be done instantly at a fraction of the cost.

Today, Renovate AI powers thousands of home transformations across the country. We work with leading architects, contractors, and homeowners to reimagine spaces and bring design dreams to life. Our enterprise solutions help businesses scale their visualization capabilities while maintaining professional quality.

But this is just the beginning. We're building a future where every home improvement decision is powered by AI, making beautiful design accessible to all.
