After a fire, flood or burglary, your insurer may ask one simple question: what did you own? Most people would struggle to answer it from memory. Coverly means you don't have to. A walk through your home becomes a structured contents inventory: photographed, organised room by room and ready before you need it. POINT YOUR CAMERA, SKIP THE TYPING Take photos or video of a room and Coverly identifies the items it can see, provides pricing estimates, and drafts item descriptions. Check the results, correct anything that needs changing and move to the next room. No spreadsheets and no listing every possession by hand. KNOW WHAT IT MAY COST TO REPLACE Coverly searches replacement listings and lets you save relevant pricing against each item, helping you build a clearer picture of what your contents may cost to replace. KEEP THE PROOF WITH THE ITEM Receipts, warranties, valuations, manuals and extra photos attach to the item they belong to, not buried in a drawer or lost with an old phone. BUILD A CLAIM PACK IN MINUTES Pick the rooms and items you need and Coverly generates a structured PDF with item details, recorded values and linked evidence - ready to review, download and share with an insurer or assessor. FITS HOW YOU ACTUALLY LIVE Organise multiple properties and rooms, then search across your inventory. Coverly is useful when insuring a new home, reviewing your cover, preparing for a move, renting or simply keeping better household records. WHAT'S INSIDE • AI-assisted room and item scanning - single photo, multi-photo or video • Manual entry and voice-assisted input • Replacement price research • Receipt, warranty, valuation, manual and photo storage • Multiple properties and rooms • Full inventory search • PDF Claim Pack creation and export • Private, account-based inventory Built in New Zealand. The best time to build a contents inventory is right now, before you need it. Start yours today. Some features and usage limits depend on your selected plan.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Microsoft Translator at none against Coverly's 4. Coverly's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
