Toolbox: AI Home Repair App

Something's broken in your house. Now what?

Skip the rabbit hole of mismatched how-to videos and the wait for multiple estimates. Toolbox diagnoses home repair issues from a short video in seconds.

HOW IT WORKS Record what's happening, tell us what you see, and our AI analyzes your video + narration to identify the likely cause and the best next step. You'll get a clear diagnosis with a safety rating, estimated costs, and a recommended path forward.

SAFETY-FIRST ROUTING Every diagnosis is classified Green, Amber, or Red:

Green — Safe to DIY. Low risk. Step-by-step guide to get it done. Amber — DIY with caution. Doable, but experience helps. You get the guide, with a pro on standby if you'd rather not. Red — High risk. For your safety, Toolbox doesn't show a DIY guide — it flags the hazard and matches you directly with a vetted local professional.

When something is dangerous — electrical, gas, structural — we tell you to stop and connect you with a licensed pro. Your full diagnosis is shared with them before they arrive, so they show up prepared. No wasted trips. No misdiagnosis. No surprises on the bill.

AI CHAT ON THE DIAGNOSIS — AND EVERY STEP Your diagnosis isn't the final word. Tap AI chat to challenge the result, ask clarifying questions, or share more details for an updated diagnosis. It's a second opinion that adjusts in real time as you give it more context.

Once you start a DIY guide, AI chat stays with you. Tap any step to ask about tools, alternatives, or troubleshooting. The AI knows your specific diagnosis the whole way through.

MATCHED PROS, NOT RANDOM ONES When you need help, Toolbox matches you with a vetted local pro through our Thumbtack partnership — based on your diagnosis, not just proximity. The pro gets your full diagnosis before the visit, so the quote is accurate and the work goes faster.

Already know you need a pro? Tap "Hire a Pro" right from the home screen and skip the diagnosis.
