Reasonable questions

Everything people ask before signing up, in one place.

What does free actually include?

The whole tool, for one project: budget with honest brackets, plan and schedule, cashflow, the trade pipeline, materials and the decision log, plus one full run of the kick-off wizard, so the AI drafts your first plan before you've paid a penny. After that you get 20 assistant actions a month, enough to chat to your project, have a quote read or a price checked when it matters, and notice what you'd use if it weren't metered. The £7 removes the meter. No trial clock, and free stays free.

Can you see my numbers?

Your project is encrypted, EU-hosted, and readable by your account and nobody else. Never sold, never used for adverts, deleted when you say so. The one exception is your choice: you can share what a job actually cost, anonymously, so everyone's estimates get better. That means the type of job, its size, the region and the rate, never your name, address or project. It is off unless you switch it on, and switching it off deletes what you shared.

Is the AI actually any good?

It's a well-briefed assistant, not an oracle. It prices jobs for your area within sensible brackets, spots what a quote suspiciously fails to mention, and turns "sort out the bathroom" into a task list. You stay the project manager; it just makes you a faster, better-informed one. Nothing it says replaces a structural engineer, and it will tell you so itself. Read the AI disclaimer

Phone? Mac? Windows?

Anything with a browser. The laptop for the big planning session, the phone in the builders' merchant queue. The whole household sees the same live project.

Do I need any planning experience?

No. That's rather the point. You bring the idea and the opinions; the AI asks the scoping questions a professional would, proposes the budget lines you'd forget, and drafts the task list. You stay in charge of every decision. It just makes sure the structure underneath is sound. And under the bonnet it's project-agnostic, so when you one day plan something that isn't a house or garden, it'll cope.

What's coming next?

Draft quantities read straight off your architect's drawings, a photo walk-round that becomes a snag list, sharing the project with your partner or builder (with you deciding who can touch the money), a home-screen app for phones, and guides for the common jobs. Founding prices lock in before any of it lands, which is rather the point of joining early.

Why not just use a spreadsheet?

We did. It was going fine until the second structural surprise, the fourth revised quote and the schedule slipping into a second year. A spreadsheet records a renovation; it doesn't run one. If yours is coping, honestly, keep it. Ours is exported to CSV whenever you fancy comparing notes.
