Features · Home Knowledge Base

Everything about your home, in one place you'll actually find later.

Most people can't answer basic questions about the home they live in — the furnace filter size, when the water heater went in, who fixed the roof, which company to call when the power goes out. The home knowledge base is where those answers live: a complete, searchable record of your spaces, structure, systems, appliances, documents, and the people who look after the place.

Room Inventory

Snap a room, get a record

Take one photo of a room and Eave fills in the floors, walls, finishes, and fixtures — each with an AI confidence level you can check. It's the fastest way to turn a house full of details into a record you can search, and every field stays editable before you save.

Later, when a contractor asks what the hallway paint is or how the bathroom floor is finished, the answer is already in your pocket.

Eave Spaces and areas: the main house, a studio, and a garden shed with their rooms, plus the front and back yard
Structures have rooms. Grounds have areas. Each one keeps its own record.

Appliance Registry

The specs, found for you

Add an appliance and Eave researches the model — pulling in the details you'd otherwise dig through a manual to find. Model number, purchase date, warranty expiry, service intervals, and a replacement forecast, filled in by Enrich with AI, so you're never surprised by an aging system.

Tasks like the furnace filter surface on their own once your systems are on file.

Structure & Systems

The house, the things that run it, and the things you'll replace.

A roof gets inspected. A furnace gets serviced. A dishwasher gets replaced. Each one needs different fields and different reminders, so Eave keeps them on separate pages.

Structure covers the envelope: roof, foundation, windows, exterior and garage doors, siding, chimney, gutters and drainage, retaining walls, fences and gates, driveway, decks and patios, insulation.

Systems is the equipment that runs the house: heating, cooling, water heater, electrical panel, plumbing, sewer or septic, solar, generator, security and alarm, audio and media, lighting control, network, irrigation, fire and life safety, water treatment, EV charging, pool and spa equipment, sump pump.

Why the split matters

A roof carries a lifespan and a last-inspected date. A furnace carries a service interval and a filter size. A dishwasher carries a warranty and a replacement cost. Separate pages mean each one shows the fields that apply to it, and the reminders that follow fit.

Documents

Every document about your house, in one place.

The inspection, the manuals, the warranty registrations, the insurance declarations page, the permits, the site plan, the quotes. Upload them once and they stay with the house.

Eave reads them. It works out what kind of document you dropped in, whether that's an inspection, a manual, a declarations page, a closing packet, or a hazard disclosure, then pulls out the useful parts, like the systems and their ages, the filter sizes, the warranty end date, and the renewal, and attaches each one to the right thing in your home. Upload the same file twice and Eave uses the copy already on file.

Stored privately. Your documents are kept in private storage and reached through links that only work for you and the people you've shared your home with. Delete one and the file itself is erased.

Big files are fine. Up to 100 MB each, which covers a full inspection report. Every plan includes storage: 1 GB on Free, 10 GB on Intelligence. How documents work →

Eave Documents page: three files on file, a storage meter showing 12.1 MB of 10 GB, and the systems each document was read into
Every document, what it was read into, and how much of your storage it uses.

Start with the folder

Most of a home's documents arrive on one day, in one folder, at closing. Intelligent Home Setup reads that folder and files what it finds, so this page fills up before you open it.

In practice
What size furnace filter do I need?

You snap the data plate on the furnace once. Eave reads it — a Carrier 59TP6, installed 2015 — and files the filter size for good: 16×25×1, MERV 11. The next time a filter change comes due, you don't measure anything or dig through a drawer for the old one. The size is already on the appliance record, the reminder already knows it, and the replacement forecast already says the unit itself is good until around 2038.

The question "what size furnace filter do I need" stops being a question. That's the whole point of a knowledge base — you answer it once, and your home remembers.

Contractor Directory

Your trusted network, not a lead-gen list

Photograph a business card, keep the contact

Snap a business card and Eave saves the contact — name, trade, and how to reach them. When something breaks, "I have no idea who to call" stops being true: your plumber, your electrician, and the person who did the roof are already here, tied to the work they did. This is your network, kept for you — not a marketplace pushing new vendors at you.

Utilities, services & sources

Who's on the hook when it breaks?

Eave Utilities and providers: electric, gas, and water found from the address, each linked to the system it serves
Found from your address; you check the number once.
Eave Services on mobile: inspector, appraiser, title company, and escrow, each found for you or added from a document
The people who touched the sale, filled in from your paperwork.

Utilities, found from your address

Electric, gas, water, sewer, trash, internet. Eave finds who serves your address, or reads it off a photo of a bill, and keeps the account number and the support line where you can find them when the power goes out on a Sunday night. It also records what each one serves: the panel, the water heater, the yard.

And everyone else who looks after the place

The lawn crew, the pool service, the pest plan, the septic pumping, the chimney sweep, the HVAC contract, your insurance carrier and agent, the HOA. Each one carries the date that matters, whether that's a renewal, the next visit, or an inspection that's due. Your paperwork fills most of this in. A closing folder names your lender and your insurer, a declarations page names your carrier, a service contract names the company and the day it renews. Eave reads them and suggests each company, and you accept or dismiss it. Utilities and services, explained →

Receipt Scanner

A receipt becomes a record

Photograph a receipt, link the details

Take a photo of a receipt and Eave reads the line items and prices, then links them to the right appliance or project. The filter you bought lands on the furnace; the part for the dishwasher lands on the dishwasher. Warranty math and replacement history stop being guesswork — the paper trail is already in the record.

FAQ

Common questions

What is a home knowledge base?

A home knowledge base is a single, searchable record of everything about your home — every room, appliance, contractor, and repair, with the details attached. In Eave it holds finishes and fixtures room by room, appliance models with their warranty and service history, your trusted contractors, and the receipts that tie it all together. It is the memory of your home, so the questions you can never answer later have answers.

Does Eave research appliance specs automatically?

Yes. When you add an appliance, Eave researches the model and fills in the details you would otherwise dig through a manual to find — things like filter size, service intervals, and warranty term. For a Carrier furnace, for example, that can mean a 16×25×1 filter, a warranty running through 2029, and a rough replacement forecast around 2038. Everything it suggests is editable before you save.

Is my home data private?

Your home data is yours. Nothing saves without your say — Eave shows you what it found and you review it before it is stored. For the full picture of how your data is handled, see our data privacy page.

Where do my documents live?

In private storage tied to your home. Only you and the people you've shared your home with can open them. Nothing is public, and deleting a document erases the file.

Can my partner use the same home?

Yes. Invite them as a co-owner from Property settings and you both see and edit the same record. Seats are free.

Household

One home, everyone who lives in it.

Share it with the people who share it

Invite a co-owner and they see the same home you do. Give a helper the ability to add and tick things off. Hand a house sitter access for two weeks and it ends on its own. There's no per-person charge on any plan. How sharing works →
