Who fixed the gate last time — and what changed?

Self-storage starting point

Start with the gate, access system, HVAC unit, or elevator file everyone searches for.

Vendor invoices, controller photos, warranty PDFs, and manager notes stay on the facility item they belong to.

01

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.

02

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.

03

Imports the list

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

04

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.

FAQ

Short answers for busy operators.

Does it work alongside our storage management software?

Yes. Keep your billing and access software. OctoVault holds the equipment side: gates, HVAC, elevators, cameras — records, vendors, fixes, warranties.

Can I open the app now?

Yes. Open OctoVault in your browser and start with one equipment record. If you'd rather not do the loading, request guided setup and we'll load your first records with you.

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.
