About Jackknife
Point your phone at anything in your home. Jackknife identifies it, builds its maintenance plan, and documents it as proof of what you own, so you’re ready for the day something breaks, a warranty expires, or an insurance claim depends on it. No manuals. No serial numbers. No guesswork. Just you, the camera on your phone, and your home. Jackknife automates the rest. KNOW YOUR HOME Every appliance, document, and receipt, organized by room and searchable in seconds, ready for insurance, taxes, or resale. YOUR HOME SHOULDN’T LIVE IN YOUR HEAD Photograph your water heater, and its annual maintenance calendar lands in your reminders. Snap a receipt, and you’ll get an alert before the warranty expires. And if a product recall is ever published for something you own, you’ll know. PROTECT YOUR BIGGEST ASSET Your Jackknife inventory isn’t a filing cabinet. It’s evidence. Time-stamped proof of what you own and what condition it’s in, before you ever need to make a claim. WHEN SOMETHING BREAKS, GO FROM PANIC TO PLAN Point your phone at the problem. Jackknife identifies the cause and severity, then recommends a DIY fix or a job for a pro, based on how handy you are.
