  1. A bathroom's selections laid out on marble: walnut with its cabinet pull, herringbone tile, marble, fabric and velvet.
    01

    Give your clients a digital library of their home.

    A designer handing over a whole-home remodel.

    Before
    A binder of receipts and warranties at move-in, then years of texts asking what the paint color was.
    After
    Every appliance, paint color, fabric and warranty in a library the clients keep for as long as they own the home. They look it up themselves.

    Time back Years of follow-up texts

  2. A powder room: a stone vessel sink and brass mirror on a navy wall.
    02

    Sourcing without desk work

    A designer heading to market with four rooms still open.

    Before
    A printed list, a full camera roll and an evening matching photos to rooms.
    After
    Every open selection by room on one phone. Each photo lands on its selection, so the trip is filed before they're home.

    Time back An evening per trip

  3. A living room with tall steel windows, leather armchairs and a wood coffee table.
    03

    Turn vendor wish lists into selections in one step.

    A designer with a vendor's 60-line quote as a PDF.

    Before
    Retyping SKUs, finishes and prices into the tracker, line by line.
    After
    All 60 lines as selections with the details filled in, ready for the client to review.

    Time back An afternoon per quote

  4. Sage-green cabinetry with brass pulls and a wood cart in a laundry room.
    04

    Digitize a spec sheet with your custom format.

    A designer whose builder wants specs in one exact layout.

    Before
    Rebuilding the spec sheet by hand every time a selection changed.
    After
    One sample uploaded. Spec sheets and presentations now come out in that layout in minutes.

    Time back Every rebuild after a change

  5. An entry with steel-framed glass doors under a wood ceiling and lantern.
    05

    Create a punch list from your walkthrough videos.

    A designer walking a finished job with the builder.

    Before
    Notes on a phone, photos in the camera roll, and a night typing up the list.
    After
    Each fix mentioned on the walkthrough video becomes a punch-list item, sent the same day.

    Time back A night of typing

  6. A counter vignette: a cutting board, a sconce and fresh flowers by a window.
    06

    Automate client updates.

    A designer with five clients asking “where are we?” every Friday.

    Before
    An hour every Friday piecing together what changed on each project.
    After
    A draft for each client of what changed that week, ready to edit and send.

    Time back Friday afternoons

  7. A bathroom with a hammered copper sink and a glass shower.
    07

    A portfolio of your past and current projects.

    A designer pitching a new client with three finished homes and two underway.

    Before
    Digging through old folders and camera rolls for the best photos of each project.
    After
    Finished rooms and work in progress from every project in one portfolio, shared with a link.

    Time back The night before every pitch

A garden path lined with ornamental grasses.
