RenoGent gives Singapore HDB homeowners designer-level renders, compliance checks and contractor supervision — inside the WhatsApp you already use. The agent does the coordination; you approve everything external or irreversible — and routine decisions graduate to the agent as it learns you.
RenoGent was born from a real 9-month renovation dispute — 2,171 messages between a homeowner and an interior design firm, peaking at 715 messages in a single crisis month. Every promise that slipped, every spec that silently changed, every "can one lah" that couldn't — that's the job this agent was built to do better.
Renovation coordination in Singapore already lives in WhatsApp. So does RenoGent — it drafts inside your private console, and nothing reaches contractors until a human approves. Every approval is also a lesson: over months, your decisions train an agent that can make them for you.
Scan a QR from your phone — the exact same gesture as WhatsApp Web. That's the whole install.
A WhatsApp group for your household. Group membership is the permission system — either spouse can feed the agent and approve its actions.
Drop your floor plan and a one-line brief. Get back an audited render proof shot, structural fact layer, and green/amber/red compliance triage with verbatim HDB citations. Today’s passed proof shot is the kitchen; other rooms are surfaced as audit escalations when they do not pass.
The agent watches your contractor group, logs every promise, chases every slip — and drafts
the message. You reply ok to send it as yourself.
AI renders love to invent windows and stretch rooms. RenoGent doesn't get to: the passed kitchen render is hash-paired to a stamped copy of your plan showing exactly where the camera stands — then machine-audited in three ordered layers.
Four moments from the pipeline: brief → verified kitchen render, catalog → a decision you can make in ten seconds, the agent speaking as you in the contractor group, and the Monday report.
🤖 📍 KITCHEN — viewpoint for render #93fc293b: red dot = where you stand, arrow = where you look.1:20 PM ✓✓
🤖 📐 KITCHEN — render #93fc293b · audited against the plan, layer by layer.1:21 PM ✓✓Who’s speaking? You and the agent share one WhatsApp account — so in the console,
every agent message is prefixed 🤖, and only humans type bare text. In the contractor group it flips by design:
approved messages carry no marker, because there they are you.
Staged recreation (names invented) — the message flow, approval gate and ledger behaviour match the live system exactly.
Your floor plan becomes an immutable, metric-grounded ground truth: mm/px calibration from printed dimensions, per-room structural briefs, every overlay diff-checked against it.
Structure-locked room renders constrained by your actual walls, windows and HDB typology — generate → audit → surgical re-edit, in a loop. Kitchen is the current passed floor-plan proof shot.
👤 you sign off on tasteGreen / amber / red against a scraped hdb.gov.sg corpus. A citation gate rejects any rule quote that doesn't match the source verbatim — no hallucinated regulations.
Contractor sends a 40-page catalog? You get a top-3 with pros & cons. After a few picks the agent learns your decision profile and decides for you — stating its reasoning, one word to confirm. The path from proposer to decision maker, one domain at a time. Scope compiles into line-item RFQs with a shortlist of HDB DRC-registered contractors matched to the works.
👤 confirm → veto, as trust graduates"Tiling done by Friday" gets logged the moment it's said. Slippage detection is mechanical; chase messages are drafted for you and sent as you. Every Monday: progress, blockers and budget-vs-cap in one report — reply report for it any time.
👤 nothing sent without your okThe agent subscribes to exactly two chats — your family console and your renovation group. Everything else is dropped at the event entry point: not read, not parsed, not stored.
Floor plan → verified fact layer, audited kitchen render proof shot, audit escalations for rooms that fail, green/amber/red compliance triage with verbatim HDB citations, line-item RFQ + DRC contractor shortlist.
The WhatsApp promise ledger: every commitment logged, slippage chased with human-approved drafts, Monday report with progress, blockers, budget vs cap and acceptance checklists.
When it's already gone wrong: timeline reconstruction from your chat history, promise ledger export, and an evidence bundle — built from the same pipeline that parsed our 2,171-message dispute.
