After a loss, insurers ask for proof. Most people have none.
Memory fails exactly when it matters
Standing in front of a burned or flooded house, almost nobody can list the contents of their own closets from memory. The claim gets built from what you can recall in the worst week of your life.
Undocumented items get settled low
An adjuster works from evidence. Without a receipt, a serial number or a dated photo, an item is settled at whatever value can be defended — and that is rarely what you paid.
Photos on your phone are not an inventory
A camera roll has no purchase dates, no model numbers, no values, and no order. It is a pile of pictures, not a document you can hand to an insurer.
How it works
Three steps, one evening
Most households finish the first pass in a single sitting and add to it over time.
- 1
Walk through your home
Add items room by room. Drop in photos straight from your phone or camera — jewelry, tools, electronics, collections, furniture.
- 2
Attach what matters
Receipt, serial number, purchase date, estimated value, appraisal. Each item keeps its own evidence in one place.
- 3
Export the report
One click produces a PDF and CSV broken down by room and category, with photos attached — ready to send to your adjuster.
What you get
Everything an adjuster asks for, in one file
Photo catalog
Multiple photos per item, stored full-size on your own drive.
Receipts & warranties
Attach a scan or a phone photo of the receipt, warranty or appraisal to the item it belongs to.
Serial numbers
Model and serial fields on every item — the first thing an adjuster or the police ask for.
Room-by-room totals
Running totals per room and category, so you can see whether your coverage limit is realistic.
Insurer-ready PDF
A clean report with photos, values and totals, formatted the way insurers ask for it.
Encrypted local backup
One-file encrypted backup to a USB drive or your own folder. No account, no cloud.
Why people choose software over another app
Photos of your valuables should not sit in someone else’s cloud
An inventory is a map of everything worth stealing in your house, complete with serial numbers. That belongs on your own machine, not on a server you do not control.
Subscription apps disappear
Several well-known home inventory services have shut down and taken their export tools with them. A file on your PC is still readable when a company loses interest.
Hundreds of items need a keyboard
Entering a whole household on a phone screen is why most inventories stop at the living room. A big screen, a keyboard and a real table view get it finished.
