Inventory and organization system for the things in your home.
Homebox is an inventory system for the things in your house. It keeps a record of what you own, where you put it, what it cost and what it is worth now, and it is built for a household rather than for a warehouse.
Items live in locations, locations nest inside each other, and anything can be labelled. A thing gets a photo, the receipt, the manual, the serial number, a warranty date and whatever custom fields you want on it. From there it is searchable, which is the whole point: the answer to "which box in the loft has the camping stove in it" is a search away rather than an afternoon.
It also keeps maintenance logs against an item, so the boiler service and the lawnmower blade change have somewhere to live, and it can print sheets of labels with QR codes to stick on the boxes themselves.
