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.

Sound familiar?

THE SHEETThe spreadsheet says “fixed 3/14” — the invoice is somewhere in email.

THE SPRAWLThree tabs, two owners, zero photos.

THE KEY PERSONThe one person who understands the sheet is on vacation.

From spreadsheet row to trusted record

Bring the sheet. Let each row collect the proof around it.

CSV import starts the record list. Photos, invoices, warranties, and notes make each row useful enough to answer questions.

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.

Can we import our current spreadsheet?

Yes — CSV import is live. Send it during guided setup and we'll load it with you; every row becomes a record you can attach proof to.

What should I try first?

One record. Snap a nameplate photo, attach one manual or service invoice, then ask: what fixed this last time? If the answer isn't useful, you've lost ten minutes.

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.

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.
