Pricing & Monetisation
Transparent pricing principles for governed renovation projects
SG Renovate AI is designed around transparent, governance-first monetisation rather than hidden renovation quote markups or undisclosed contractor commissions.
The commercial model is intended to keep platform fees separate from contractor project costs, avoid hidden incentives, and disclose any paid feature before use.
Controlled alpha pricing boundary
Pricing maturity
SG Renovate AI is in controlled alpha. Pricing may evolve as product modules mature. Any paid feature should be clearly disclosed before use.
Current Access Status
Free public education, staged workspace access, evolving modules
SG Renovate AI is in controlled alpha. Some public tools and educational content may be freely accessible, while workspace access and advanced features may be staged as the product matures.
What SG Renovate AI Does Not Charge
No hidden quote economics
The pricing stance is designed to avoid hidden incentives inside contractor quotations, ranking placement, or milestone payment flows.
Potential Future Paid Modules
Possible paid features, if separately introduced
Future paid modules may include software features, administrative services, partner workflows, or structured workflow products. This is direction, not a live price list.
For Homeowners
Pay only for disclosed additional tools or services
The homeowner pricing logic starts with planning and project clarity. SG Renovate AI should not hide platform economics inside contractor quotations.
For Contractors
Controlled visibility is not pay-to-rank
Contractor-facing monetisation, if introduced later, must stay separate from homeowner quote manipulation and public ranking incentives.
Partner / Platform Direction
Revenue direction without hidden commissions
The business model direction can include software tools, administrative services, partner integrations, and structured workflow products. It is not dependent on hidden contractor commissions.
