Welcome to Ginkgo

A quick overview of what Ginkgo is and how it works.

Ginkgo is a home inventory app that remembers where your things live. Instead of keeping the location of everything in your head - or asking around - you log it once and look it up when you need it.

What Ginkgo does

  • Stores item locations - Tell Ginkgo where something lives and retrieve that information any time.
  • Searches your saved details - Look up items by name, description, tag, or location.
  • Built for real home memory - Keep a clear record of where important things live, without relying on memory alone.
  • Adds items from photos - Take a photo and Ginkgo’s AI suggests what the item is, saving you time.

What Ginkgo isn’t

Ginkgo isn’t a general to-do app, a shopping list, or an expense tracker. It’s specifically designed to answer one question: where is this thing?

Getting started in five minutes

  1. Create your account and set a household name
  2. Add your first location (usually a room or area of your home)
  3. Add a few items to that location
  4. Try searching for one of them by name, tag, or location

That’s it. Most people find the app useful from the first session.
