The Home Operations System
$8,808 average homeowner maintenance spend last year — up 42% since 2020. And 55% got blindsided by a major repair.

Track every appliance, schedule, repair and document — so nothing blindsides you again.

The Home Operations System is one dashboard that keeps the entire operation of your house in order: every system logged, every service date calculated, every repair and document recorded — and a warning before anything's due. No monthly app fee. You own it outright.

$8,808
What the average US homeowner spent on maintenance in 2025 — up 42% since 2020.
55%
Got hit with a major unexpected repair in the last year — the kind nobody budgeted for.
97%
Say maintenance matters — but almost none have an actual system to stay ahead of it.

Nobody intends to skip the furnace service or let the warranty lapse. The gap isn't intention — it's follow-through. You mean to keep on top of it, but there's no system holding the dates, the costs and the paperwork in one place. So things slip quietly — until the slip becomes a five-figure repair.

The follow-through gap

You know what to do. You just have nothing keeping you to it.

You meant to service the furnace — but you can't recall when it was last done.
Warranties expire silently; you find out the day after something breaks.
Seasonal jobs slip until the gutters overflow or the pipes freeze.
You can't remember which contractor did what, or what you paid.
Receipts and manuals are scattered across email, drawers and the cloud.
At resale, you can't prove a thing about how the home was cared for.
What's inside

Five working tools in one dashboard

Not a PDF, not a printable — a real tool that does the tracking and the math for you. Each part does one job, and together they close the follow-through gap.

01

Due Soon rollup

The first thing you see: everything coming due in the next 60 days, pulled from your systems and seasonal tasks into one list. Open it once a month and nothing catches you out.

Your early-warning system
02

Systems & Appliances register

Log every system with install date, warranty, last service and interval. It auto-calculates the next-due date and flags each one green, amber or red — so the whole house is visible at a glance.

Auto-calculated deadlines
03

Seasonal maintenance schedule

Four seasons, each pre-loaded with the standard homeowner checklist — around 40 tasks. Check them off, track progress per season, add your own. The routine that prevents the expensive failures.

~40 tasks, ready to go
04

Repair & cost log

Every dollar that goes into the house — date, item, cost, contractor, notes — with running annual totals and a year filter. Walk into tax time, an insurance claim or a sale with a complete record.

Running annual totals
05

Document vault

One index for every receipt, warranty and manual: what it is, where it lives and the details that matter. Find the paperwork the day something breaks — not three drawers later.

Export, print & back up

Export everything to CSV, print a clean copy for a binder or a buyer, and save a full backup you can restore on any device. Your data is yours — completely portable.

Who it's for

For people who'd rather prevent the bill than pay it

The serious homeowner

You own a real asset and want it managed like one — proactively, on a schedule, with a record you can stand behind.

The recently-burned

You've already eaten one surprise repair you should have seen coming. Never again — now you want the early warning.

The resale-minded

You know a documented maintenance history sells the house. Start the record now; hand over a clean export later.

The spreadsheet-tired

You've tried to build this yourself three times. This is the version that's actually finished — and does the math.

Why one payment

Own your home's system. Don't rent it.

Home-management apps charge you every month — forever — for data about your own house. This is the opposite deal.

Subscription apps

$5–15 / month, indefinitely
  • You pay every month you own the home — for decades.
  • Your data is locked on their servers and their account.
  • Need an internet connection and a login to see your own records.
  • Price hikes, feature paywalls, or the app shuts down and takes your data.
At even $8/month, that's ~$960 over ten years.

Questions

Before you buy

Is this a PDF or a real tool?

A real tool. It's a single web file that opens in any browser and works like an app — you type in your systems and it does the tracking, the math and the warnings. Nothing to install.

Is there a monthly fee?

No. One payment and it's yours forever — no subscription, no account, no renewals. Compare that to home-management apps that bill you every month for the life of the home.

Where is my data stored? Is it private?

Everything is saved locally in your own browser. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is sent anywhere, and there's no account. It works completely offline. Use Backup to save a copy or move it between devices.

Do I need to be technical?

No. If you can fill in a form, you can run it. Add your systems, check off seasonal tasks, and the Due Soon list tells you what needs attention each time you open it.

Will it work on my phone?

Yes — it's responsive and runs on desktop, tablet and phone. Your data lives in whichever browser you open it in; use Backup & Import to keep them in sync.

What if I just bought the house?

Start with The First-Year Homeowner Kit ($19) for your first 12 months, then step up to this when you're ready to run the home for the long haul.

The next repair is coming. The only question is whether you saw it first.
