Google has teamed up with Home Depot to launch a new AI tool called Home Depot Pro. This tool is designed to help contractors estimate the materials they need for home improvement projects. It uses artificial intelligence to analyze project details and suggest accurate material lists. Contractors can save time and reduce waste by getting better estimates right from the start.

The system works by letting users upload photos or sketches of a job site. Home Depot Pro then reviews the images and identifies key elements like room size, surface types, and existing fixtures. Based on that information, it recommends specific products available at Home Depot stores. The tool also updates suggestions in real time as project details change.
Contractors using the app can access pricing, availability, and delivery options directly through the platform. This helps them plan more efficiently and avoid last-minute trips to the store. Google says the AI was trained on thousands of real-world renovation scenarios to improve its accuracy. Early tests show users cut planning time by up to 40 percent.
Home Depot Pro is now available as a mobile app and web platform for professional users in the United States. It is part of Home Depot’s broader effort to support tradespeople with digital tools. Google provided the underlying AI technology and cloud infrastructure to power the service. Both companies say they will keep adding features based on user feedback.

The tool does not require special training to use. Its interface is simple and built around common workflows contractors already follow. Users can adjust recommendations manually if needed. Home Depot Pro aims to make estimating faster, easier, and more reliable for everyday jobs like flooring installs, bathroom remodels, and deck builds.
