Better AI renders, whole-room paint and skirting

Reno newsletter, 23rd October 2026

Check out the latest features from Reno - helping you get the results you want from your renovation projects...

AI renders just got better

It's been a long time coming - AI renders have had a model upgrade so they can look a lot better and more realistic.

They can now use the images in your mood board as well as what's in your plan, and you can tell them exactly how to use each one. You can also make several changes to a render without quality dropping.

Thank you all so much for your feedback and patience! Try it out on your next room.

Forgetting to paint the whole room?

You're not alone. Now, choose the paint, then your option, whole room or just this wall, all skirting boards or just this piece! We kept forgetting too!
