Your home's maintenance, handled.

How does HomeTend work?

From problem to plan in seconds. No forms. No typing. Just point your camera and let AI handle the rest.

1. Snap the problem. A dripping pipe, a cracked tile, a mystery stain: just take a photo. That's all you need to do.
2. AI drafts the task. Title, category, tags and description are all suggested automatically. Review, tweak if needed, and save.
3. It manages itself. Set recurrence and HomeTend reschedules automatically. Get reminded before it's due. Never forget maintenance again.

The features that make HomeTend worth installing

Why people download HomeTend:

• Photo-first task creation. Point your camera at the problem. AI reads the photo and suggests the title, category, tags, and description. From 'something's dripping' to a filed task in under ten seconds.
• Recurring maintenance that reschedules itself. Set it once: check HVAC filters monthly, clean gutters every fall, inspect the septic system every 3 years. Complete a job and the next occurrence appears automatically.
• Needs-booking radar. Recurring jobs surface as 'needs booking' before they're due, based on your lead time. You book the electrician in time instead of remembering the week after.
• Every pro, one tap away. Your plumber, electrician, and pool guy live in your property's contact book, attached to the tasks they work on. One tap opens a WhatsApp chat.

From a one-time setup to a weekly habit

Why people keep using it:

• Receipt intelligence. Photograph a receipt and AI extracts the vendor, date, total, and currency, then files it against the right task. Receipt extraction is part of HomeTend Plus. Your paper shoebox, digitized.
• Lifetime spend per job. 'What have I paid pool services over the last three years?' is finally a question with an answer. Every recurring series tracks its complete cost history.
• Household sharing. Invite your partner, kids, or housemate by link. Everyone sees the same tasks, calendar and vendors, free on every plan.
• The whole home at a glance. Dashboard, calendar, and status views: what's unscheduled, what's booked, what's done, and what's quietly going stale.

Unlike anything else on the market

Why people recommend it:

• AI vendor matching. Snap a new receipt and HomeTend recognizes the vendor and links it to your existing contact. It remembers who did the work even when you don't.
• A maintenance record worth money. A documented, receipt-backed service history is a genuine asset at resale, for insurance claims, and at tax time. You're building your home's paper trail.
• Multi-property ready. Primary home, the beach place, a parent's house. Each property gets its own tasks, contacts, and history under one login.
• WhatsApp-native, not form-native. No portals, no 'request a quote' forms, no pro-network lock-in. You keep your own tradespeople. We make reaching them quick.

How does HomeTend compare to HomeZada, Homer, and Dwellin?

What HomeTend intentionally doesn't do: contractor marketplaces, home inventory for insurance, renovation project budgets, social features or reviews, and ads. We leave these out on purpose.
