How to Visualize a Renovation Before It Happens with OpenClaw

Visualize a Renovation Before It Happens with OpenClaw and ToolRouter. Upload a before photo and get a cinematic timelapse showing the transformation to a finished state.

Tool

Renovation Timelapse

Feed in multiple before photos with design briefs and OpenClaw will generate timelapse videos for all spaces in a single batch. This is right for multi-room renovation projects or property development portfolios needing visualizations for every unit simultaneously.

Connect ToolRouter to OpenClaw

1Install the CLI
npm install -g toolrouter-mcp
2Call tools directly from OpenClaw
toolrouter-mcp call web-search search --query "AI tools"
toolrouter-mcp tools

Steps

Once connected (see setup above), use the Renovation Timelapse tool:

  1. Define all before photos, their assigned design directions, space types, and output naming schema before batching.
  2. Run `renovation-timelapse` with `create` across the batch with consistent quality and style parameters.
  3. Review outputs and rerun any space where the transformation missed the design brief.
  4. Compile the full set for project presentations, marketing materials, or planning submissions.

Example Prompt

Try this with OpenClaw using the Renovation Timelapse tool
Use renovation-timelapse to generate transformation videos for all 12 spaces in this development project. Each has a before photo and design direction in the input data. Return filenames matching the space IDs, flag any image too low resolution for quality output.

Tips

  • Assign design directions at the space level before batching — generic briefs produce inconsistent outputs across a multi-room project.
  • Use space IDs in filenames so every timelapse maps directly back to the project floor plan.
  • Review the full batch as a set before presenting — different spaces should feel like they belong to a coherent design vision.
