The record of your house

Every room, every appliance, every repair, and what each one needs next. Photograph a label and it files itself.

Your home, remembered.

On your phone, and in any browser. Not released yet.

A house keeps its facts in the worst possible places

A plate on the side of the furnace. A model number behind the dishwasher. A paint code on a lid in the basement. None of it is written down until the day it is needed, and by then the lid has gone out with the recycling.

SectionThree facts a house keeps, and the three places it keeps them.

One photograph becomes a record

Photograph the label. The brand, model and serial are read off it, anything uncertain is marked for you to check, and the finished item lands in the right room with the care interval that belongs to it.

It works with no signal. A basement with no bars is the normal case, not the edge case, so captures queue on the phone and sync when you are back above ground.

Organised around the house, not around folders

Every room knows what is in it. So does every system, every document and every piece of work anyone has done, which is why one word can reach all three at once.

A dishwasher is not an entry in a list

It sits somewhere. The record is built the way a drawing set is built, so a paint colour belongs to a wall, a window size belongs to an opening, and an appliance belongs to a room on a floor of a particular house.

StructureNothing is recorded in a place it does not belong.

What is due, and what is about to be

Care is built around the things you actually own and how old they are. Reminders arrive on your phone, or you can subscribe to the whole year from the calendar you already use.

Shared with the people who live there

Invite the household. Everyone sees the same record, and the person who changed the filter is the person the record says changed it. Roles decide who can edit and who can only read.

Yours to take with you

Export the record whenever you want it back. It is your house, so it is your file, and nothing here is built to keep you from leaving with it.

Where this is going

The record is the foundation, not the destination. Once a house knows its own rooms, the next step is for the plan itself to become the way you reach them: tap a room and get everything attached to that physical place, drag a year across the timeline and watch the house change.

Not built yet. The drawing below is the direction, not a screenshot. What ships today is everything above it.

Coming first: Ask Home

Ask the house a question in plain words and get an answer drawn from your own records and from the manuals attached to them, with a link to the exact record or the exact page it came from.

What paint is in the living room. What size filter does the furnace take. When was the dishwasher replaced.

It will only ever tell you what is in your record. If the filter size was never written down it says so and offers to find the manual, rather than guessing a number you might buy against.

Ask Home will be a paid feature. Everything above it will not be.
