How it works
Three steps, and none of them require you to know the word "soffit."
- 01
Start with what you have
An address is enough. An inspection report is better — we read every finding and translate it.
- 02
Get the full picture
Property, valuation, and hazard data in five readable sections, plus repairs ranked by what matters now.
- 03
Put it to work
Send your realtor a buyer-side or seller-side letter built from the report's own numbers.

Your home's private intelligence
General AI knows houses. Argo knows yours.
Ask any chatbot about a water heater and you'll get an article. Argo answers about your water heater — the one in your photo, installed on the date from your receipt, with the warranty window and the finished floor underneath it. It gets smarter every time you add something, and it's private to you.
Your inspection report
Every defect, note, and photo caption from the inspector — parsed line by line, not skimmed.
HOA and closing documents
CC&Rs, reserve studies, assessments, and disclosures, cross-checked against what the house actually needs.
Photos and video of the inside
Walk the house with your phone. Argo reads model plates, serial numbers, and install dates off the equipment.
Receipts from your email
Connect email and Argo pulls the invoices and order confirmations that prove what was bought, when, and for how much.
Your purchase history
Retail and home-improvement orders become warranty start dates, service history, and replacement-cost evidence.
The permit and claim trail
County permits and prior claims on the address, tied to the systems they touched.
It tells you before you ask
- From a photo of your water heater
That unit is in year 11 of a 12-year life and sits above finished space. Replace before failure — a burst tank here is a $9,400 water-damage claim, not a $2,100 swap.
- From a receipt in your email
Your HVAC install has 14 months left on the manufacturer's parts warranty. The repair quote you just got is covered — send the warranty request instead of paying.
- From your HOA reserve study
The association is underfunded on roofs and votes on an assessment next spring. Budget for a special assessment, and don't pay for roof work the HOA owns.
Private by design
- Your file is yours. It stays tied to your address and travels with you if you sell.
- Nothing you upload is used to train a public model.
- You choose what gets shared with an agent, a carrier, or a contractor — per document.
The Argo Home File
A Carfax for your physical home — the whole history, kept in one place.
Cars have a title history. Homes don't — the record of the physical home is scattered across county permits, insurance claims, contractor invoices, and whatever the last owner remembered to mention. Argo assembles it into one owner-held file per address, keeps adding to it, and tells you what it means for the years ahead.

Nearing end of expected life. Argo watches the clock and tells you when it matters.
One record that follows the house
Permits, claims, replacements, inspections, and equipment ages in a single timeline — not a shoebox of PDFs.
Proof at sale time
A documented maintenance history you can hand to a buyer, an agent, or an insurer without digging.
Told what's next, not just what happened
Argo watches roof age, system life, and hazard exposure and surfaces the next thing worth doing.
Every owner adds to it
The file keeps growing across ownership changes, so the next owner inherits the truth about the home.
Every report includes
39 data points, in five plain-language groups
Valuation, structure, systems, hazard, and neighborhood — assembled into one record. Open a group to see exactly what's in it.
Money on the home
The record pays for itself in coverage and equity.
Once Argo knows the roof age, the systems, and the hazard exposure, it can price coverage properly and show you the money already sitting in the house.
Home insurance
Quotes priced against a real rebuild basis and your confirmed condition record — not a market-value guess. Argo shows where a policy leaves the roof or water damage exposed.
Home warranty
Breakdown coverage matched to the systems Argo flags as near end of life, with the service-fee math shown next to the repair estimate you'd otherwise pay.
Equity & HELOC
Value, mortgage balance, equity, and loan-to-value in one place — plus the line you could draw at an 85% combined LTV cap and what it would cost per month.
Argo earns a referral fee when you buy coverage or open a line through us. Estimates are not offers of credit or insurance.
After the free report

Repair action layer

Maintenance calendar
Seasonal tasks generated from the actual systems, ages, and climate of this physical home — not a generic checklist.
Owner-held Home File
A permanent, transferable record of the physical home: ownership, permits, claims, service history, and contents.
Insurance readiness
Replacement cost, roof age, and hazard exposure kept current so renewals hold no surprises.
Recall & warranty watch
We track your furnace, water heater, panel and appliances against recall notices and warranty end dates.
Living record refreshes
Values, tax assessments, permits and hazard scores re-pull on their own — your record of the physical home never goes stale.
Document vault
Drop in inspections, invoices, receipts and closing documents. Argo reads them and files them against the right part of the physical home.
Contractor scorecard
Who bid, who won, what it cost and how it held up — so you know who to call back next time something in the physical home needs attention.
Unlimited letters & exports
Buyer or seller realtor letters, lender and insurer summaries, and a branded PDF of the whole record.
Transfer at sale
Hand the buyer a verified record of the physical home at closing — and Argo credits your $199 back when it transfers.
