How do I document my home for insurance?

Record a video walkthrough of each room with your phone. Preloss uses AI to identify items from video frames and generates a timestamped PDF inventory. You can also scan receipts and serial plates to attach proof of purchase price and identity to specific items.

What is a home inventory app?

A home inventory app helps homeowners create a documented record of their belongings. Preloss automates this process using AI video analysis — you record a walkthrough and the app identifies and catalogs items with estimated replacement values, organized by room.

How does AI home inventory documentation work?

You record a short video of each room. The app extracts frames from the video and uses AI vision models to identify objects, brands, and models visible in each frame. Items are cataloged with estimated replacement value ranges and organized into a timestamped report.

What should I document for a home insurance claim?

Insurance claims typically involve an itemized list of belongings with descriptions, estimated values, and purchase information where available. Visual evidence (photos or video), receipts, serial numbers, and condition information can also be part of the documentation process.

How does Bitcoin notarization work for home inventory?

When you complete a video walkthrough, Preloss creates a cryptographic hash (SHA-256) of the evidence and submits it to OpenTimestamps calendar servers, which anchor the hash in the Bitcoin blockchain. This creates independently verifiable proof that your documentation existed at a specific point in time.

What is coverage gap analysis?

Coverage gap analysis compares your insurance policy limits and sub-limits against the estimated total value of your inventory. It reveals categories where your belongings may exceed your policy coverage — such as jewelry, electronics, or firearms that often have sub-limits below the total value owned.

The Problem

Most South Carolina homeowners are flying blind.

Hurricane Helene (2024) — Hurricane Helene caused widespread flooding and wind damage across South Carolina, with contents claims continuing months after the storm.

When a hurricane destroys your home, insurers want proof. Without documentation, you're left reconstructing your entire life from memory — and insurers dispute every item they can.

How It Works

How to document your home for insurance — from inventory to claim.

Preloss covers the full lifecycle: creating a record of what you own, organizing evidence when something happens, and exporting everything in one structured packet.

Phase 1

Before — Document What You Own

Create a complete video-based inventory before anything happens. Most homeowners can document their entire home in under an hour.

Record a video walkthrough of each room — no tripod, no setup, just your phone
AI identifies items, brands, and models from your video frames automatically
Scan receipts and serial plates to attach purchase price and identity proof
Run a coverage gap analysis — compare your inventory value to your policy limits

Phase 2

During — When Something Happens

If disaster strikes, your inventory becomes your claim documentation. Mark what was affected and attach evidence.

Mark items as damaged, destroyed, or stolen in your existing inventory
Attach damage photos as visual evidence for each affected item
Your pre-loss timestamps are already Bitcoin-notarized — independently verifiable

Phase 3

After — Organize & Export

Export a structured claim packet. Everything organized, timestamped, and ready to share.

Generate a claim PDF with loss summary, item-by-item details, and evidence photos
Export a complete ZIP — inventory PDF, claim PDF, CSV, all photos, and verification proofs
