Maintenance Tracking

Log a task once and stop carrying the schedule in your head. The Wrench reminds you while the job is still maintenance and not a repair.

  • Tracked by time and by use. Hours, miles or age on one side, calendar dates on the other. Get notified by whichever comes due first.
  • The control of a spreadsheet without the upkeep. Priority, cost estimate and status at a glance. Sort, filter and export when you need the full record for a budget, an insurer or a buyer.
  • Component tracking. The impeller on your boat, the transmission in your car, the chain on your bike and the water heater in your house. Get reminders for the parts you depend on most.

How Tracking works

1

Enter your last service

Enter the last time each job was done. A date, a meter reading or your best estimate. The Wrench counts forward from there.

2

Log your usage

Log hours or miles after each use, and progress is tracked automatically. Items on a calendar interval advance on their own.

3

Get notified

Alerts arrive before the emergency does. Order the part, book the shop or complete the work yourself.

4

Do the work, log it

Mark the job complete and the interval resets. The next alert is already scheduled.

Your Manual, Decoded

Upload the owner's manual for anything you own as a PDF. The Wrench reads the manufacturer's maintenance schedule and highlights the intervals worth tracking.

  • Reads the manufacturer’s own service schedule and suggests intervals for you to review
  • Works with any manual: marine engines, vehicles, bikes, appliances and home systems
  • Approve the intervals that apply. Each one becomes a recurring task you never have to schedule again.
  • One upload replaces an evening with a 200 page service manual

No More Unexpected Costs

Link a savings goal to an expense you already know is coming, like a new set of tires, a roof replacement or a haul-out. Fund it over months instead of absorbing it in one week.

  • Projected growth with compound interest, over any time horizon you set
  • Daily and monthly targets calculated from the goal and the date
  • A daily check-in that builds the habit, with streaks to keep it going

Water heaters retire around year 10 and the swap runs about $1,800. Put away $15 a month from day one and it's covered.

Raw Water Cooling Systems

Your engine pulls seawater through a strainer, past the impeller, and through the heat exchanger. Understanding this flow helps you spot blockages before they cause overheating.

Bikes are live now. Homes, cars and motorcycles are in beta, and more categories are on the way. Open a category to see what is included and what it costs.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about The Wrench.

The Wrench is built for owners who want a clear, organized approach to what they own and what it costs over time. From your first big purchase to a full collection, it helps you stay on top of maintenance, control expenses, plan ahead for major costs, and keep every record in one place.

The Wrench provides maintenance tracking, financial planning with compound interest projections, inventory management, document storage, usage logging, a calendar, expense tracking with analytics, and educational resources on how your equipment works and what it needs.

Absolutely. The Wrench includes plain-English content on how your equipment works and what it needs. The guided setup walks you through adding what you own and building its maintenance schedule. You don't need to be an expert. You learn as you go.

Start by adding what you own in the Fleet section, with the details and current usage for each. From there, head to Maintenance to set up your recurring tasks, and visit Financial Planning to start saving for upcoming expenses. The Dashboard pulls it all together at a glance.

The Maintenance Schedule is for larger projects, anything worth budgeting for or handing to a professional. The Usage Tracker ties tasks to hours or miles and updates automatically as you log use. The Checklist is for routine upkeep on a set cadence, the smaller, inexpensive jobs that rarely need a pro.

A few ways. Savings goals with compound interest projections help you plan ahead, so steady saving offsets future maintenance costs. Our education content builds the confidence to handle routine work yourself, saving time and money and catching small problems before they get expensive. You can also track tax-deductible expenses for anything used in business.

The Wrench goes beyond basic maintenance tracking by pairing service schedules with financial planning, and it teaches you what you're maintaining and why it matters. It's built to help you plan ahead and manage what you own with confidence.

Yes. The Free plan includes the core maintenance, financial planning, and education features. The Wrench is a self-funded project, and our pricing is designed to stay accessible while supporting long-term, responsible development without selling user data.

Absolutely. Your documents are encrypted. We will never sell your data.

Yes. The Wrench has a native iPhone app on the App Store, and the web app works in any modern desktop or tablet browser. An Android app is not available yet.
