It provides step-by-step guidance on correct pipe sizing (1.5" vs 2"), fitting selection (Y-branch, caps), and ensures compliance with local codes, all without needing to modify existing toilet drains.
Key Features
- AR overlay to scan existing plumbing and project new drain paths
- Automated code compliance check for pipe sizing and fitting placement
- Material and tool list generation based on planned reroute
- Step-by-step 3D interactive instructions for installation
Target Users: DIY homeowners and handymen renovating bathrooms in older homes (single-family houses)
Revenue Model: $9.99 per project plan or $4.99/month subscription for unlimited projects
