Features

What you get back

Not just an altered JPEG.

Twelve styles on their actual room

Scandinavian, modern, mid-century, coastal, traditional, farmhouse, industrial, japandi, bohemian, glam, minimalist, contemporary. On their photo, not a lookbook.

The room is not redecorated

Furniture and decor are added. Walls, flooring, fixtures and windows are left exactly as shot, because changing those misrepresents the condition being sold.

A consultation that ends in a picture

Disagreement about style is faster to settle by looking. Render two and let the client point, rather than describing a mood board.

Disclosable, and handled

Virtual staging is object insertion and is disclosable everywhere it is permitted. The pack carries the wording and the unaltered original.

Occupied rooms can be emptied first

Occupied-to-vacant strips a furnished room back to empty, including the shadows and reflections the furniture left, so staging starts from a clean room.

One photo at a time, deliberately

Each image is staged independently. Multi-angle consistency is not reliable here or anywhere, so the honest use is a hero shot rather than a room set.

How it works

Three steps

  1. Step 1

    Upload your photos

    JPEG or PNG. Free to try: 2 renders without an account, 1 more when you sign in. Your original is never used for training.

  2. Step 2

    Pick a tool, then we check our own work

    Renders that move your framing or change the house are discarded before you see them.

  3. Step 3

    Download the pair

    The edit and your original, in MLS order, with disclosure wording for each place you post it and a record of what changed.

Staging sells the room. This sells the decision.

The expensive part of staging is not the furniture, it is the round trip: a walkthrough, a proposal, a conversation about whether the client wants warm or spare, and only then a van. Most of that is a disagreement about taste that is faster to settle by looking at the room than by describing it.

Render the same room in two directions and let them point. That conversation takes a minute instead of a week, and the job you win is the one they already agreed to.

Where the line is

Adding furniture and decor to a room is staging. Changing the room is not. Duskly will insert a sofa and will not repaint the wall behind it, because paint, flooring and permanent fixtures are condition, and altering condition is prohibited in several markets even when it is disclosed.

That boundary is also the useful one commercially. A staged photo that implies a renovation the buyer will not find is the kind of complaint that reaches a broker.

On the listing rather than in the proposal

A proposal image and a published listing image are different objects. The first is a conversation aid. The second is an altered listing photo carrying a disclosure obligation for whoever publishes it, and in several markets an obligation to publish the unaltered original beside it.

If the render ends up in the MLS, buy the listing so the original, the wording and the audit record travel with the image rather than being reconstructed from memory later.

FAQ

Questions worth asking

No, and pretending otherwise would be a bad sale. A buyer walking a physically staged house experiences something a photo cannot. What virtual staging replaces is the cost of finding out which direction the client wants before the van is booked, and the cost of an empty room photographing badly on the MLS.

No. Changing paint, flooring or permanent fixtures is prohibited in several markets even with disclosure, because it misrepresents the condition being sold. That is a product refusal rather than a setting, and it applies to everyone.

Yes. A free preview runs at reduced resolution with no account, which is enough to show a client a direction. If the images end up on a listing rather than in a proposal, buy the listing so the original and disclosure travel with them.

Treat it as yes. Virtual staging is the textbook disclosable case, and several jurisdictions additionally require the unaltered original be published alongside. Some rules ask for more than a label: Canopy MLS requires the original sit immediately before or after the staged photo.

Run occupied-to-vacant first, then stage the empty result. That is two edits on one listing, which the single price covers. Both are disclosable and both return their originals.
