MovingManifest is a system of record for moves: inventory, box manifests, photo evidence, load plans, and scoped documentation packets. It exists so the details of a move are captured once and stay usable for everyone who needs them.
How it works
A move becomes a usable record
Catalog items, owners, condition, and values in one place.
Pack boxes, list contents, and print QR labels you can scan later.
Attach condition, serial, and receipt photos. Originals stay private.
Assign boxes to trucks, vehicles, storage, or movers.
Generate mover, employer, insurance, or PCS packets, scoped to each recipient.
These principles shape how MovingManifest is built — from how AI fits in to how your records are shared.
Bring your own assistant — Claude, ChatGPT, or Codex — over scoped MCP and API keys. MovingManifest is the structured record, not another locked-in chatbot. We don't bundle an AI model.
AI can suggest estimates, categories, box contents, and assignments, but a human approves. The app never silently changes your data behind your back.
Original photos and records stay private. Recipient packets are designed to hide values, serials, private notes, and sensitive photos unless you choose to share them.
Household moves, military PCS with mixed HHG and PPM, insurance and claims evidence, employer relocation, storage, and donation — not a one-size checklist.
MovingManifestis in active development — we're building openly at movingmanifest.com. It is early, and we say so honestly rather than dressing it up.
The work is organized into focused phases, each one a real part of turning a move into a dependable record.
MovingManifest is built by Scott Jarvie, an Arizona/Utah–based app designer and artist. It is an independent product made by someone who has lived through the mess of moving and wanted a record they could actually trust afterward. The focus is the mission: an honest, private, AI-optional system of record for moves.
It is an organizing tool, not an official authority — not affiliated with the military, any government agency, insurer, or moving company. It helps you prepare and document a move on your terms.
As the product matures, more about the project and how to reach us will live here.
