A household is a small organisation. It has inventory, a calendar, purchasing, costs to share out and paperwork that expires. Companies stopped running that on loose spreadsheets thirty years ago; households are still spread across six apps, a group chat and the memory of the same person as always.
homeify is what a company would call an ERP, applied to a household: one system where the modules share the same data, instead of a different app for each thing.
What that means here
The chores, the diary, the shopping, the pantry, the accounts and the documents live in the same panel and under the same people. There's no deciding which app each thing gets written into, which is the reason it ends up written into none of them.
That's what separates an integrated system from a folder of apps. You mark the shop as done and the pantry refills itself, the receipt becomes an expense split between whoever it's for, and anything that came in with a date starts warning you before it goes off.
With real roles: who can touch the money, who only sees their own chores, which documents are everyone's and which only the admins'. It's what makes it possible to share a house without sharing absolutely everything.
An expense is split to the cent and balances are never stored: they're worked out. When you settle up, the system tells you the fewest transfers needed instead of leaving four people making cross-payments.
It isn't a business ERP and doesn't pretend to be: no bookkeeping, no invoicing, no payroll, no taxes. What it borrows is the idea —a system where the modules share the same data instead of each living on its own— applied to what actually takes up a household.
The modules
What needs doing, with someone on it, a date, and rotas that turn on their own.
The things you have to remember at a set time, and they go off when it comes.
Who paid what, who owes whom, and the fewest transfers that settle it.
Everyone's list — and when you pay, the pantry refills and the cost is split.
What's in the house and what goes off this week, before you buy it again.
Appointments, birthdays and plans that one person stops having to remember.
The wifi, the move, the plumber's number. Shared, not forwarded.
What gets charged each month, what it adds up to, and who's paying it.
What you're eating each day of the week, decided once and in plain sight.
A roulette that picks what to watch from what you already pay for, by age and genre, so the argument doesn't pick it.
The contract, the policies and the warranties where anyone can find them, with a warning before they run out.
The living room, the washing machine or the car: who has them and when, without asking the group chat.
The dates the house keeps, on the calendar and flagged a week before and on the day.
The plumber, the insurer, the block manager. The number you look for in a hurry, out of one person's phone.
What was bought, when, where, and how long the warranty runs, flagged before it ends.
What you have covered, for how much, and until when you can switch before it renews itself.
The plate, the MOT and the insurance, with a warning before they run out.
The microchip, the vet, and when the jab and the worming are due.
Each home turns on the ones it uses and turns off the rest: a module that's off disappears from the sidebar and stops existing for that household.
