Money gets fuzzy
Small decisions compound into expensive surprises when the budget is fragmented across notes, invoices, and memory.
Private beta for homeowners
Renovate once. Do it well. Stay financially and emotionally in control.
Renovate is the operating system for homeowners managing a renovation together: planning, budget, documents, decisions, and contractors in one calm place.
One placePlans, costs, documents, contacts
Partner alignedShared context, fewer WhatsApp
loops
Less chaosDecisions tracked before they become
expensive
Home renovations break because information breaks first.
Budgets live in spreadsheets. Decisions live in messages. Quotes disappear in email. Contractors call when you're at work. Your partner has a different mental model than you do. Renovate brings the whole project back into one shared system.
Context gets lost
Contractor promises, material choices, and next steps vanish into WhatsApp threads and screenshots.
People drift apart
When you and your partner don't share the same plan, everything feels like firefighting instead of progress.
Everything you need to steer the renovation calmly.
Renovate is structured around the real work homeowners do: planning phases, deciding priorities, managing documents, and keeping everyone aligned without turning the project into another full-time job.
- Planning
- Organize your project by phase, room, and theme, with goals to track what "done" looks like. Everything legible at a glance, not scattered across three different tools.
- Budget & reports
- Track estimates, committed spend, paid invoices, and where the money is coming from. Burndown, cash flow, and biggest-cost reports show you where things stand before “roughly fine” becomes an expensive surprise.
- Documents
- Permits, contracts, quotes, and product sheets attached to the phase or room they belong to. One search instead of twelve threads.
- Decisions
- Log open questions with context so you can revisit why something changed, and who agreed to what.
- Contacts
- Who is responsible, when they promised something, and what still needs a follow-up call.
- Collaboration
- Invite your partner, an advisor, or a contractor, each with the right level of access. Everyone works from the same plan instead of comparing notes after the fact.
- Multiple renovations
- Kitchen this year, bathroom next year, or a whole house at once. Manage more than one project and switch between them without losing track of either.
- Reminders & calendar
- Get nudged before a payment is due or a budget threshold is crossed, and sync your renovation timeline straight to Google Calendar.
