The Vision

Every home has a story. Almost none of it is written down.

Warranties, receipts, appliances, contractors, renovations, maintenance history: a home's most valuable records live in junk drawers, lost emails, and memory. HomeOS pulls all of it into one place and gives every home a verifiable identity.

The flagship is HomePassport™, designed to become the category standard the way Carfax is for used cars. A buyer or realtor can ask "can I see the HomePassport?" and get a trustworthy, verifiable record of how a home has been cared for.

The whole thing is distributed through realtors who gift it to clients at closing. A growth loop baked into the product, not bolted on later.

What Was Built

Not a prototype. A complete platform, simulated.

Vision-native document AI

Drop in any receipt, warranty, or manual. Claude reads the image directly, with no separate OCR, and returns structured fields, full searchable text, and a confidence score per field. Low-confidence fields get flagged; the rest just appear. It feels like magic.

Home Health Score

A score that speaks human. It weighs maintenance, record completeness, warranty coverage, appliance lifespan, and seasonal prep, then shows a warm label like "Looking Great" instead of a cold number. Recomputes instantly on action and nightly for time decay.

Weighted + real-time

HomePassport™

A verifiable identity for every home: Carfax for houses. Each passport has a unique ID, a public verification page, a polished PDF, and a shareable web link. AI writes the narrative; every number comes from the database, so there's zero hallucination risk on facts.

PDF + verifiable web link

Maintenance engine

A built-in catalog of recurring home tasks with smart intervals, reminders at 14 / 7 / 3 days out, and intelligent batching that rolls everything due into a single weekly email per property, so it feels helpful, never spammy.

Smart-batched digests

Monetization engine

Five subscription tiers, Stripe Checkout, billing portal, and signature-verified webhooks as the single source of truth for entitlements, plus an AI-credit economy with top-up packs and free re-runs. Built to take money on day one.

Stripe + AI credits

Realtor distribution

A separate account type with its own client roster and a 60-day gift-link flow: realtors hand HomeOS to clients at closing, the account auto-links, and the trial auto-converts. A built-in growth channel, not an afterthought.

Deep Dive

A score that makes homeowners feel capable, not judged.

Most health metrics shame you with a number. HomeOS shows a warm label backed by real evidence, computed from five weighted signals across maintenance, records, warranties, appliance lifespan, and seasonal readiness.

New users start with a gamified Setup Score that graduates into the real thing once there's enough data. It recomputes instantly when you act, and quietly overnight as time passes.

Deep Dive

Upload a photo. Get structured, searchable data.

The AI pipeline is vision-native. Claude reads the document image directly and returns clean fields, a full-text index, an auto-detected document type, and a confidence score on every value.

Only uncertain fields ask for a glance. Everything else just lands. Search "dishwasher" and every document that mentions it surfaces instantly.

The Value

What a foundation like this costs the traditional way.

The traditional path

A product manager, a designer, and two to three senior engineers, running discovery, specs, architecture, and a working build of this scope.

9–12 months
before a team is confidently building

Estimated cost saved

versus staffing the same discovery, design, and foundational build in-house or via an agency.

Working with ProductScott

The complete simulation: documentation, working codebase, and a runnable mock database, handed to your team ready to run.

~8 weeks
flat fee, scoped upfront

Basis: a product manager, a UX/UI designer, and two to three senior engineers at market salary, over roughly six to eight months to produce comparable documentation, design, architecture, and a working foundational build. Actual figures vary by team, rates, and scope.

Now imagine it's your product.

A platform, an internal tool, a brand-new product line: whatever you've been trying to get off the ground. This is the head start your team could be building from in weeks.
