Get value fast
A simple first-day path that makes iMaintain useful immediately.
Overview
After you’ve created your account, finished onboarding, and learned basic navigation, the fastest way to “feel” iMaintain is to add a little real data.
You don’t need to inventory everything at once — start with what matters most.
Quick wins (10 minutes)
1) Add your first property (foundation)
Add a property first so everything else has a clear home (spaces, belongings, and maintenance).
- See: Properties
2) Add 1–2 spaces you actually use
Create a couple spaces like Kitchen, Garage, or Basement so organization becomes automatic.
- See: Spaces
3) Add a few belongings (single item or room inventory)
Add one high-value item (serial number + receipt/manual) or capture a whole room with a few photos — both approaches work.
4) Create one schedule you want to keep up with
Pick a single repeating task (air filter, furnace service, oil change, flea/tick prevention) and schedule it once — that’s enough to start benefiting from reminders and history.
- See: iMaintain Calendar
5) Attach one file to see the payoff
Upload one receipt, manual, warranty, or photo to an asset. Once it’s attached, it stays connected and searchable later.
Use Copilot once you’ve added a little data
Copilot becomes more useful as your records grow — because it’s grounded in your schedules, history, files, and notes.
