Photograph each layer of an open moving box. GoesHere uses AI to turn the visible contents into an editable item-by-item inventory—without typing everything yourself. Seal the box with a permanent number. Later, search for “charger,” “coffee maker,” or any item and GoesHere shows the exact box, destination room, inventory, and original packing photos. PHOTO IN. INVENTORY OUT. Take new pictures or choose existing box photos. Capture up to three layers as you pack. After you seal, AI lists the visible items. Review the list, correct a suggestion, or add anything important. FIND THE EXACT BOX LATER Search every packed item, room, or box number. Open the result to see its editable inventory and full-size packing photos—without tearing open the cardboard. ONE PERMANENT NUMBER Every box gets a number unique across the entire move, even when family or helpers are packing in different rooms. PACK TOGETHER Invite family or helpers into the same synchronized move. Everyone contributes to one box inventory, and helpers never pay. EXPORT THE WHOLE MOVE Download every box and item as a spreadsheet-ready CSV for Google Sheets, Excel, or Numbers. TWO BOXES FREE Try the complete photograph → inventory → find workflow on two boxes. Need more capacity? Add box packs through App Store in-app purchases; your device shows the current price before purchase. WORKS OFFLINE AFTER SETUP Capture, number, and seal while offline after accepting the AI-processing disclosure. Uploads and AI inventory resume when you reconnect. AI PHOTO INVENTORY WITH YOUR AGREEMENT AI photo processing is the core GoesHere service and requires explicit agreement before use. After you seal, GoesHere sends a resized, metadata-stripped, face-redacted photo copy through OpenRouter to Google Gemini so visible items become searchable. The copy is not end-to-end encrypted while processed. Withdraw permission anytime in Privacy & Data; using GoesHere again requires a new acceptance. AI suggestions can be incomplete or mistaken. Confirm important items yourself. Privacy: https://goeshere.app/privacy Terms: https://goeshere.app/terms
