Scaling renovation capacity with AI for GoSource
GoSource is an AI-powered platform for building materials, offering a turnkey renovation for multifamily housing industry.
One key feature I helped design was the Estimate Tool, built to solve a critical pain point: generating fast, accurate renovation cost estimates.

GoSource wanted to grow its renovation volume from 100 to 1,000 units. Each PM handled 45 units over 45 days, and every additional day added cost.
Our product team’s mission was to design systems that would help managers handle more units simultaneously and complete renovations faster — reducing the average timeline from 45 days to 30 days.
If we introduce a faster, more intuitive way to estimate
.... then we can reduce manual workloads for PMs — accelerating renovation timelines and delivering faster, more efficient projects.
Despite being the only designer on the team after unexpected layoffs, I helped to design the first MVP in two weeks.
The MVP allowed users to upload takeoff files, validate formats, and receive pricing results — either exact matches or smart alternatives.
