Win the bigger job. Before anyone draws a line.
Render the finished extension, loft or porch straight onto a photo of the client’s house, see what their council is likely to flag, and send a branded quote with the scope and timeline already inside.
More quotes accepted, on average, when installers send an Unformed brochure instead of a PDF.
Based on activity from 4,200+ projects across the UK and US in 2025–2026.
The finished works, on their actual house.
Photo of the property in, the completed extension or loft out — built onto the real photo so the rest of the house stays exactly as it is. Not a generic 3D model, not an artist’s impression. The client stops trying to imagine it and starts talking about the spec.
No photo of the finished thing? Use the drawings.
Upload architect or structural drawings and Unformed renders what they describe. The client finally sees what they have been paying to have drawn — and you get a visual to quote against without commissioning a visualiser.
Know the planning risk before you price the job.
Run the scheme through an AI planning review: it checks the drawings against permitted development (GPDO) and NPPF rules, researches how that specific council has decided similar cases, and hands back a risk-ranked report of what is likely to be queried and how to address it. Walk into the quote knowing where you stand.
A quote they can actually compare.
Renders, scope of works, itemised pricing and the programme in one branded link. When the client is holding three quotes, yours is the one that shows the finished job — and the only one they can open on their phone without downloading anything.
Every project, every stage, one pipeline.
Milestone dates from survey through to completion, and each job moving from In Progress to Secured. When a client asks where things are, the answer is one link — not a rummage through the van for a folder.
Deposit requested before you are back at the yard.
Accept the quote and it becomes an invoice in the same brochure — auto-numbered, VAT handled, nothing re-keyed. One artifact the client keeps coming back to, from first render to final payment.
Planning anxiety, gone.

"I showed a homeowner their rear extension built onto a photo of their actual house. They signed the contract on the doorstep."
"We used to pay an architect just for a concept drawing. Now I render the addition from the customer's photo and quote it the same day."
"The Planning Review flagged exactly what our council kept knocking back. We fixed it before submitting and it went through first time."
