how we make money
One sentence: you pay us; nobody else does.
what we charge
The free verdict costs nothing. The full audit is S$49 one-time. The Project Pass is S$99 one-time and covers every quote for your reno for 12 months. That's the entire business model, no subscriptions, no upsells to firms, no advertising.
what we will never do
- ✕selling your details to contractors or IDs, no leads, ever
- ✕referral commissions or success fees from any firm
- ✕featured placement, sponsorships, or ads near an audit
- ✕letting a firm pay to appear, or to disappear
- ✕contractor rebuttals or edits inside your audit
Why so absolute? Because the moment a platform earns from the firms whose quotes it judges, its verdicts stop being worth anything. Independence isn't a feature of RenoRates. It is the product.
what about your data?
Anonymised line items from audited quotes (work descriptions, quantities, prices, never names, contacts, or firm identities) build the Singapore rates database that makes every verdict sharper. That data flows one way: from quotes into benchmarks that serve homeowners. If we ever offer contractors anything, it will be aggregate market statistics about their own pricing, never your quote, never your identity, and never a way to influence what you see in an audit. This page was published before we earned a single dollar from any firm, hold us to it.
