HINT Home Intelligence
HINT is a house management app for homeowners. According to its official website, users can generate a house profile within one minute by entering an address, including the construction year, climate, soil and flood risks, and then create a seasonal maintenance plan based on this. It can also read home inspection reports, insurance policies and bills to form a database, take photos to identify problems and recommend local service providers.

What is HINT Home Intelligence?
HINT's official website positions itself as "Homeownership without the guesswork" — a product created by Home Hub Labs, co-founded by Martha Stewart, which combines the expertise of human specialists with an app that "understands your specific home". It is currently available on the App Store. The difference between it and renovation community or property management apps lies in its starting point: the address. It first builds a profile of the house using public data, then formulates a maintenance plan tailored to this particular home.
Who is it for?
- New homeowners who have just bought a house and need a maintenance checklist to follow from day one
- Homeowners with aging properties who want to detect small issues in advance to avoid major overhauls
- People whose home inspection reports, warranty documents, and work orders are scattered everywhere and want to consolidate them into a home database
- DIY users who are planning to renovate their kitchens, basements or gardens and need step-by-step expert guidance
- Families who want to compare insurance, utility, and broadband plans all in one place
Key features
6Generate a Home Profile by Entering an Address
Both the official website and the app store page state that the home's status can be depicted in less than one minute after entering the address, including information such as the year of construction, climate, soil, and flood risks—details that most homeowners do not take the initiative to check.
Seasonal Maintenance Reminders
The official website states that Hint keeps an eye on the home all year round, tracking tasks that need attention and alerting users to easily overlooked matters (such as advance reminders before renewal), and intervenes before small problems turn into big, costly ones.
Document Reading & Archiving
Home inspection reports, insurance policies, bills, and even handwritten work orders left by the previous homeowner can all be stored in one place; the official website states that it will actually read these documents and retrieve them directly when needed.
Photo Diagnosis
The app store states that by taking just one photo, Hint will tell you what the problem is, how to fix it, and recommend local professionals who can do the job.
Price Comparison and Service Connection
The official website states that users can compare insurance, water, electricity, and broadband plans all in one place, and continuously monitor for more cost-effective options.
Expert Background
The official website states that the product was built in collaboration with contractors, home inspectors, insurance claims adjusters, designers, builders, and co-founder Martha Stewart. The advice provided comes from people who have worked in this industry for a long time.
Things to know
Usage Tips
- Start with the address: First check the inferred age, climate, soil conditions and risks of the house, correct any obviously incorrect information, and then ask it to create a maintenance plan.
- The official website emphasizes privacy: it states that it never sells data, does not share it without your consent, and does not use it to train models; however, home inspection reports, insurance policies, and bills are all sensitive information, so review the privacy policy before deciding what to upload.
- Photo diagnosis provides a direction for judgment; for issues such as structural cracks, electrical and gas problems, you still need to find certified personnel to conduct on-site inspections, and do not perform disassembly or repairs on your own based on the suggestions.
- The official website states that it is currently available on the App Store, with the Google Play version set to launch soon; the app store information indicates that it can be downloaded for free, and the specific scope of free content and paid content shall be subject to the app store page.
- Treat it as a reminder, not a decision-maker: The official website states that it "only speaks up when there's something to report," but for matters such as insurance renewal and whether quotes are fair, it's still recommended to do your own comparison again.
