SimplyWise prices the job.
Alcovia designs and sells it.
SimplyWise is a fast AI estimating app: LiDAR-scan a room, get a line-item material-and-labor estimate, and send a branded PDF quote — it even adds a quick AI before/after image. Alcovia shares that scan-to-quote spine but centers on a photorealistic, generative remodel render and a client-facing design presentation.
An estimating app with a render vs a design-and-estimate platform
SimplyWise nails fast on-site pricing: scan with LiDAR, auto-generate a material takeoff and labor estimate from national pricing data, and produce a branded PDF quote in about a minute — plus a lightweight AI 'before & after' image where the contractor describes the change. That render is a deal-closing extra bolted onto an estimator, not a photorealistic generative design engine, and there's no inspiration-photo reskinning or full design presentation. Alcovia leads with a photorealistic generative remodel — driven by a prompt or a client's inspiration photo — wrapped in a client-ready presentation, with the takeoff and estimate alongside it.
Why contractors switch
- Photorealistic, generative remodel renders — not a lightweight before/after image
- Reskin the room from your client's inspiration photo
- Client-ready design presentation, not just an estimate PDF
- Material takeoff and instant estimate from the same scan
- Per-project pricing with your first project free
- Built around the design that wins the job, with estimating alongside

Key advantages
What Alcovia does that SimplyWise doesn't
Photorealistic generative design
SimplyWise's AI image is a contractor-described before/after bolted onto an estimator. Alcovia generates a photorealistic remodel and is built around design fidelity.
Client inspiration in, render out
Drive the redesign from a client's inspiration photo. SimplyWise has no inspiration-photo reskinning.
Design presentation, not just a quote
Alcovia exports a client-ready design presentation with renders and material breakdowns. SimplyWise's PDF is an estimate/proposal.
Same fast scan-to-estimate
Alcovia also scans with LiDAR and produces takeoffs and instant estimates — so you keep the speed and gain the design.
Per-project pricing
Pay per project (first one free) instead of a roughly $30/mo all-you-can-scan subscription.
Where SimplyWise wins
If you only need a fast number on-site, SimplyWise is lean and quick. Alcovia is for contractors who win the job on the design.
The bottom line
SimplyWise prices the job fast. Alcovia designs and sells it — photorealistic generative renders and a client-ready presentation, with estimates alongside.
Scan any room with your phone, redesign it with AI, generate photorealistic renders, and present to your client — all in one app. Try your first project free.
