The free inventory app that does the boring part for you

The four things that save the most time. Every other feature is further down.

AI photo scan

Snap a shelf. Hoardo writes the list.

Take a photo of an open box or a messy shelf. Hoardo names every item, counts the identical ones and cuts out a photo of each. You just check the list.

How AI photo scan lists a box

Mugs, duct tape, a hammer, socks, a marker and masking tape on a wooden table

Example scan: six items found, four identical mugs counted as one item.

Ask Hoardo

Ask what you have. Get a list, box by box.

“What do I have for camping?” Ask in plain words, in any language. Hoardo answers with everything that fits, and the box and room each thing is in.

QR labels

Scan the box. See inside without opening it.

Print labels on plain paper or 40+ A4 sticker sheets from Avery, HERMA and more. Point your phone camera at one and the box opens in Hoardo.

Lists

A list for every job.

Pack for a trip, plan the move, lend the drill, rent out the camera, sell the attic, count the shelf. Each kind of list knows its job, and more kinds are on the way.

Everything a home inventory needs. Nothing it doesn't.

Add things with AI, find them with search or a question, and keep track of what's packed, lent out or for sale.

What a home inventory app is for

Hoardo is a home inventory app for the stuff you actually store: seasonal decorations, tools, camping gear, kids' clothes, the waffle iron from 2019. You organise by rooms and numbered boxes, then search from your phone. A barcode inventory system at home is a QR label on each box: scan it and the list opens, so you do not unpack it. An inventory app is a list of what you have and where it is. Hoardo is that idea, built for home storage.

  • What to catalogue at home

    Start with the things you cannot find when you need them: holiday decorations, sports gear, spare cables, documents, kitchen overflow. Skip the junk-drawer paperclips. A home inventory app earns its keep on the boxes you would rather not open.
  • Rooms and boxes

    Make a room for the garage, attic, basement or spare room. Give every box a number (the name is optional). List what goes in by typing, saying it or snapping a photo. Print a QR label so the real box matches the list.
  • Build an insurance list

    Add photos, quantities and prices on the things that would hurt to replace. Export everything to CSV whenever you want a copy. Items and photos are free, so the list can cover the whole house.
  • Moving house

    Number every moving box, list what is inside, and search on the other end instead of unpacking twelve cartons for the kettle. Packing lists tick things as they go in the van. Each box still has a room it belongs to.

Questions people ask

What is the best free inventory app for home storage?

Hoardo is a free home inventory app built for storage boxes. List what goes into each box, print a QR label for it, and search across all your boxes when you need something. Every feature is free, for all your boxes, items and photos.

Is Hoardo really free?

Yes. Hoardo is 100% free: every box, item and photo, every feature, no ads and no premium tier.

How do I find something in my boxes?

Search for it, or ask Hoardo in plain words. Hoardo shows which box it's in and which room that box is in, so you can go straight to it.

Can Hoardo recognise items from a photo?

Yes. Take a photo of a shelf or an open box and Hoardo's AI names the items and counts identical ones, like four mugs, so you only have to check the list. You can also just say what you're packing.

How Hoardo uses AI

Can I use Hoardo in Claude or ChatGPT?

Yes. Connect the free Hoardo MCP server in Claude, or in ChatGPT on the web (not the mobile app). On ChatGPT, full support including write actions is on Business and Enterprise/Edu; Pro can connect with read/fetch only. Plans are up to OpenAI and may change. It asks before it changes anything.

Can I use Hoardo for packing lists, lending and renting?

Yes. Make a list for a trip, a to-do or the things you lend out. Pick things from your boxes, tick them off as they're packed, and note who borrowed what and when it's due back. Roaming shows everything that's out of its box, and where it goes back to. If you rent things out, a renting list books them by the day and never double-books them. It writes down prices and deposits but never takes payments, and it can go on your rental page, where people can ask for dates.

How do the QR code labels work?

Print a label for each box on plain paper or on standard A4 sticker sheets. Scanning the QR code with your phone's camera opens that box in Hoardo.

Can I share my boxes with my family?

Yes. Invite people to a room and choose whether they can edit it or only look. Everyone sees the same boxes, History shows who changed what, and anything changed or deleted can be brought back.

Does Hoardo work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. Hoardo runs in the browser on any phone, tablet or computer, and you can add it to your home screen like an app.

Can I export my data?

Yes. Export everything to a CSV file whenever you like. Your data is yours.
