CLUSTER HOME-INVENTORY-ITEMS · 21 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-05-05

Photo-based home inventory apps

A cluster of home inventory apps that let users photograph belongings, auto-identify or scan items, assign storage locations, and locate items later via photo, name, tag, or note search. The dated entries before the index start are sparse until 2025, then occur more frequently across 2025-2026, though the pre-index record is too thin to confirm a clear pattern. Traction is led by Boxed-Inventory-App with 17 stars on GitHub.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
