Homebook by Memasys Sign in

If someone had to step in, would they know what to do?

Homebook is a handbook for your household. You make it while everything is fine, so it's ready for the stretch when it isn't.

What it costs →

Three pairs of shoes lined up on a coir mat by a front door — two adult pairs and, at the end, a pair of baby shoes.

Your household runs on things only you know.

None of it is written down.

It never needed to be — until someone else is standing in your kitchen, guessing.

The moment it's needed is rarely the one you picture.

For a while, the household has to run without the person who runs it.

An empty wooden chair at a table by a curtained window, with a used cup and saucer left on the table, as though someone has just got up and stepped out of the room.

Questions Homebook answers:

How it works.

  1. Answer questions.

    Homebook asks about the rooms, the routines and the accounts, a few at a time.

  2. Homebook writes the handbook.

    Your answers come back as plain pages, in order, that someone else could actually follow.

  3. Share it if someone ever needs it.

    Until then it sits there, and you add to it when something changes.

What happens to your information.

It's early. Don't make it your only copy of anything.

Two keys on a ring, hanging from a metal plate on a panelled wooden door.

Homebook is almost ready.

We're finishing a few important continuity features before opening membership publicly.
