The free checklist that helps your family remember everything you owned.
Your insurance company asks for a list of everything that was in your home. The Memory Jogger walks you through more than 12,000 household items, room by room, so you check off what you had instead of trying to remember it all from a blank page.
More than 30 Los Angeles families have trusted us with their contents.

Nobody can list a whole house from memory.
The things your family used every day are the hardest to remember, because nobody ever thought about them.
A blank spreadsheet doesn't remind you of anything
You write down the couch and the TV, and the hundreds of smaller things never come to mind.
The small things add up
Spatulas, extension cords, spare sheets, the coats in storage. Each one is small, but a home holds thousands of them, and anything left off the list can't be paid for.
One person usually carries it alone
Everyone in the family remembers different rooms, but the list tends to land on one person's laptop at midnight.
It's easier to recognize something than to remember it.
That's the whole idea. Seeing "salad spinner" on a list brings it back in a second, even if you'd never have thought of it on your own.
- 1Step 1
Open a room.
Start anywhere: the kitchen, a bedroom closet, the garage. Each room is split into smaller groups, like utensils, cookware and small appliances, so you're never looking at everything at once.
- 2Step 2
Check what you had.
Tap each item your family owned and set how many. When you remember the brand, model or where you bought it, add a note.
- 3Step 3
Bring in your family.
Invite the people who lived there. Everyone works on the same list from their own phone, and it keeps your place, so you can do the kitchen tonight and the garage on Saturday.
Everything your family needs to remember what you owned.
More than 12,000 household items
Built from real fire claims and organized room by room. The kitchen alone has 789 items across nine groups.
A section for what's out of sight
It covers the things that live in boxes, like off-season clothes, baby things saved for later, photo albums and holiday decorations.
Counts and notes on every item
Set how many you had and write down the brand or model while you remember it.
Your whole family on one list
Each person signs in on their own phone, and everyone adds to the same list.
Saves as you go
Close it whenever you need to. Your list is there when you come back, on any phone.
Free, with nothing to buy
You don't have to hire us to use it. Your list is yours either way.
Your insurance company prices what your list says.
If your list says "toaster," the insurance company prices the cheapest toaster it can find. If it says "Breville four-slice toaster," they price a Breville. The Memory Jogger gives every item a place for the brand and model, so the details you remember don't get lost.
Start with the things that live out of sight.
You don't have to wait for the app. These come straight from the Memory Jogger's section on stored and seasonal things, and they're the easiest to leave off a list.
- Packages that arrived but were never opened
- Winter coats, boots and ski gear stored for the off-season
- Baby clothes and gear saved for the next child
- Kids' outgrown clothes, school papers and art in boxes
- Photo albums, yearbooks and home videos
- A wedding dress, prom dress or military uniform in storage
- Holiday decorations in labeled bins
- Camping gear and seasonal sports equipment
We can turn your checklist into a finished inventory.

We describe and price every item you checked, add what we find in your photos and records, and a contents specialist reviews every line. If you need help now, we'll build your Memory Jogger for you from your photos and records.
