AI pool design software for pool builders and pool salespeople

PoolCast is AI pool design software that takes one photo of your customer's backyard and puts a photorealistic pool into that exact yard: their house, their fence, their trees. You choose the build. The customer sees it before they sign.

Why pool builders use it

Most lost pool deals are not lost to another builder. The homeowner can't picture the pool, so they go home "to think about it" and never call back. A 2D plan doesn't fix that. A photo of their own yard with the pool already in it does.

How it works

  1. Stand at the back of the yard, face the house, and take one photo.
  2. Upload it and choose the shape or fiberglass model, finish, decking, spa and features.
  3. PoolCast renders the pool into that photo. Slide between before and after, download it, and put it in your proposal.

Built by a pool salesman

PoolCast was built by Russ Bourque: 26 years selling pools, more than $40 million in career sales and 2025 Salesman of the Year. Every option in it came up at a real kitchen table with a customer who couldn't picture it yet.

Questions

Can I render a specific fiberglass pool model?

Yes. PoolCast renders real manufacturer fiberglass models at their true length, width and shape, including Barrier Reef models, instead of a generic pool.

Does it work with screen enclosures?

Yes. PoolCast can add a screen enclosure that runs corner to corner off the back of the house, with the pool seen through the mesh the way it would be in Florida.

Do I need design or CAD experience?

No. You upload a photo and pick options from lists. There is nothing to draw.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Five full-quality renders are free with no credit card.

Can I use the images in proposals?

Yes, as AI-generated concept images. They are not construction drawings or engineering plans.
