The Archive

Your home's record, care plan and trusted trades, in one place.

Open your Archive on your phone or your computer, wherever you are.

Take the walk-through

The Archive is by invitation. Tell us about your home. Every home we welcome starts with 30 days free.

What you get

Five parts, one record.

  1. Your record

    “Which paint was it, and who did the bathroom?”

    What's in the house, and the work done on it: fixtures, materials, documents and photos, with who did the work. Search your record by trade, paint colour or year.

  2. Your care schedule

    “When did we last clear the gutters?”

    A care plan you build, set to our seasons in New Zealand. Each item says why it matters, the early sign to watch for and what happens if it waits. A recommended starter set is one tap away.

  3. Your trusted trades

    “Who was that good plumber?”

    Odyssey Network trades or your own, booked the same way. We send the brief and the link, and when they log the visit, it lands on your record.

  4. Your Property Portfolio

    “The insurer wants it all in one document.”

    A PDF of your record, yours to keep and hand on, for insurance, a sale or the next job. Download it whenever you need it.

  5. Your manuals

    “Where is the booklet for the heat pump?”

    Photograph the booklet and it stays on file. Find it the day the appliance plays up.

How it fills

Recorded once, by whoever did it.

  1. You book a trade

    From your Archive: one of ours from the Network, or your own.

  2. We send the brief and the link

    So the trade has the job in writing before they arrive.

  3. The visit lands on your record

    They log it from the link, photos and all. Odyssey records its own work, and you add the rest in a few taps.

The film

The Archive in 75 seconds

The same walk, with captions.

When it matters

Four moments.

  • Selling the property

    “The buyer’s lawyer asks what was done to the house, and when.”

    Download your Property Portfolio, a PDF of the whole record, and hand it on. If you sell, the property’s Archive can pass to the new owner for the rest of your paid year, arranged with our team.

  • An insurance claim

    “The assessor wants receipts, dates and photos of what was there before.”

    They are on your record: the receipt you photographed, the job it belonged to, the photos the trade logged on the day. Download the Portfolio and send it.

  • A trade at the door

    “A new plumber asks what was done last time.”

    Open your record: the last visit, who did it and what they found. Book a trade through your Archive and we send the brief and the link; when they log the visit, it lands on your record, photos and all.

  • A problem at home

    “The hot water goes cold.”

    Your record holds the unit’s manual, its warranty and the trade who installed it. Book them again in a tap, or one of the trades we trust.

The price

One property, one price.

$395a year

Each extra property is $197.50 a year. One account holds up to four properties; for more, talk to us.

Honest answers

What people ask first.

How do I start?

The Archive is by invitation. Tap “Request your free 30 days” and tell us about your home. We read every request, and no card is needed. Nothing is ever charged automatically.

A friend introduced me. What happens?

You start with 30 days free, the same as every home we welcome. If you carry on, the Archive is $395 a year. We thank the friend who introduced you, and we tell you so.

Who adds the records?

Everything is recorded once, by whoever did it, and stays on your record. Your trades log each visit from the link we send them, photos and all. Odyssey records its own work. You add the rest in a few taps: photograph a receipt, a paint tin or a manual and it is filed. We set up your property's profile before your first sign-in, and the guides in our Library show what is worth keeping.

Do I have to use your trades?

No. Book your own trades the same way. The Network is trades and suppliers we have worked with and trust, and no one pays to be on it. We don't advertise: our work has always travelled by word of mouth. So when a client or a trade introduces someone to us, we thank them. It is our way of saying thank you to everyone who supports our workmanship and the Odyssey vision.

Will you remind me when care is due?

Your care schedule shows what is due this season and why it matters. Open it whenever you'd like.

What about a second property, or a rental?

$197.50 a year, with its own record in the same account as your first, whether it is a rental, a bach or a second home. We email the invoice, and the extra property opens once it is paid. One account holds up to four properties; if you have more, talk to us and we can take it to eight.

Can I take my record with me?

Your Property Portfolio PDF is yours to keep and to hand on. If you sell, you can also hand the property's Archive to the new owner for the rest of your paid year, arranged with our team.
