Collov AI

AI virtual staging and interior design platform for real estate listings, restyling empty or furnished rooms into market-ready photos in seconds.

Collov AI was founded in 2021 by Xiao Zhang, who studied applied physics at Stanford, and Casey Zhou, a former generative AI engineer at TikTok, with Yale professor Rex Ying serving as chief scientist. The company is headquartered in Redwood City, California, and builds AI-powered virtual staging and interior design tools for real estate agents, brokerages, and interior designers. The core product lets users upload a photo of an empty or furnished room and receive multiple restyled versions in different design styles within seconds, along with tools to remove existing furniture, adjust lighting and time of day, and swap floors, walls, and finishes. Collov AI raised a $10 million Series A round in 2024 and markets data showing its virtual-staged listings sell measurably faster than unstaged ones. With roughly 40-50 employees, Collov AI competes with rivals such as REimagineHome and Virtual Staging AI in a crowded real estate tech category, and holds a strong Trustpilot rating overall alongside a number of complaints about billing and output accuracy.
