Guides
Decide what to change, then see it first
Ten guides on the parts people get stuck on: photographing a room so an edit holds up, writing a note the model can follow, testing paint colors, and what this kind of editing can and can't do.
All ten guides
Start with the photo if you are about to take one; start with the notes if you have a photo and nothing is changing the way you meant.

Build the pair from one photo so only the change differs, present it on a slider, label it as a preview, and send a link rather than attachments.

Small living room changes to test in an afternoon

What AI room design can and can't do
