GitHub for Residential Real Estate.

Every home is a repository. Every permit, invoice, and repair is a commit. TRACExAI is the version control layer for the asset you already own.

// the legacy stack

Homeownership today runs on untracked changes.

I
— deprecated

Untracked changes.

Receipts and screenshots pile up like uncommitted files — no history, no diff, no way to reconstruct what happened.

II
— deprecated

No source of truth.

Municipal portals are disconnected forks of your home's history that never merge back into main.

III
— deprecated

Deploys with no rollback.

DIY weekend repairs ship straight to prod. No branch, no review, no way to revert when something breaks.

// protocols

Three primitives, one version-controlled home.

01

Handshake Protocol

Pull requests for your home.

A single photo of a vendor invoice becomes a signed commit. Review, merge, and verify — powered by Vision AI, with zero friction on the vendor side.

CivicNode Protocol

CI for your municipality.

Every permit, inspection, and lien runs as a job against your home's repository. Autonomous integration with local government — passing builds you can prove.

TRACE Autopilot AI

Dependabot for the physical house.

Proactive alerts for the systems you depend on. Point your camera at a problem — TRACE diagnoses, locates shut-offs, and opens the pull request to fix it.
