Case Study. Home services. AI lead capture.

HomeSolutions used AI backyard rendering as a lead magnet for pool companies.

I built Satellite View: a product that uses Google imagery and AI rendering to show a homeowner their backyard with a pool, spa, and outdoor features.

Why it mattered

Pool companies buy leads in a brutal market. Many leads are shared, cold, and low intent.

HomeSolutions needed a better reason for a homeowner to raise their hand. A backyard rendering is more useful than a generic quote form.

The situation

I built Satellite View for HomeSolutions.

The product uses Google imagery and AI rendering to create a visual concept of a homeowner backyard with a pool, spa, and outdoor features.

The conflict

Most lead magnets ask the user to do work before they see value.

This flips it. The homeowner gets a visual before the sales conversation. The contractor gets a lead with more context and intent.

What I did

I built the product flow around satellite imagery, design preferences, rendering, and lead capture.

The key was connecting the emotional moment to the business model. A homeowner sees the dream backyard. The pool company gets a better lead.

Resolution

Satellite View turned AI rendering into a sales asset for pool companies.

The lesson: the best lead magnets do not just collect contact details. They create desire before the first sales call.

What this proves

  • A lead magnet should give value before asking for the sale.
  • Visualizing the outcome increases intent.
  • AI works well when it makes an expensive decision feel real.

What I am building now

For the past years, a lot of my time was tied to long contracts with CGMA and Domestika. Around that work, I kept building my own products. That matters because every product forces the same work in a tighter loop: product decisions, AI workflows, onboarding, pricing, conversion, retention, and the small details that make people come back. This case study shows the client work. The projects show what I learn when I have to ship the whole system myself.
