For property, facilities & HOA teams

Facility records that survive staff, vendor, and board changes.

HVAC, roofs, pools, gates, irrigation, elevators — the warranty, the last fix, and the contractor stay with the building, not with whoever happens to hold the binder this year.

Equipment records and service history without a full CMMS rollout. Free 30-day self-serve trial, full access, no card.

You

You take one photo

The nameplate on the machine. However grubby it is, however bad the light.

AI writes the record

Make, model, serial, year, voltage — read straight off the photo and laid out as a record.

You

You tap Approve

Nothing lands until you say so. From then on you can ask that machine anything.

No setup project. No importing week. No training. Start with the machine that hurt you most recently.

When handoffs hurt

THE HANDOFFNew manager, new board, same building — and nobody knows who serviced the boiler.

THE WARRANTYThe roof leaks. Is it covered? The proof is in a filing cabinet somewhere.

THE VENDOR SWITCHThe old contractor knew everything. The new one starts from zero.

Facility starting point

Start with the roof, pool pump, gate, HVAC unit, or contractor handoff.

Warranty PDFs, board notes, service invoices, and install photos stay findable through staff, vendor, and board changes.

Reads the photo

A nameplate or equipment photo starts the record. OctoVault pulls out the useful identity clues and keeps the image as a source — you approve every fact.

Links the files

Drag in a manual, a warranty, an invoice, a photo. Each file lands on the right record — linked, not lost in a folder.

Imports the list

The spreadsheet you already keep, messy rows and all. Every row becomes a record you can attach proof to and ask.

Answers with proof

Ask what happened, what is covered, or what is missing. Every answer shows the sources it used — and gaps are called out, not papered over.

The old way, and this way

You hand it the mess. AI does the rest.

Nothing on the right is a promise about the future. It is what happens the first afternoon you use it.

FAQ

Short answers for busy operators.

Does this replace our property management software?

No — keep it for rent, owners, and bookings. OctoVault holds the building equipment side: records, warranties, fixes, and contractor history you can ask.

Where does my data live?

In your own workspace, isolated from every other customer and verified by automated tests on every build. Real records onboard through guided setup — and we export everything for you anytime you ask.

What if the AI misreads something?

Nothing lands in a record until you approve it. Every answer shows its sources, and when proof is missing OctoVault says "missing" instead of guessing.

What happens if OctoVault cannot read a document?

It tells you. The file is saved either way, marked "could not read yet," and the record's Missing list shows what still needs a better copy. Honest gaps beat confident guesses.
