Reading equipment details like make, model, and serial number from a photo of the unit’s nameplate.
What is nameplate capture?
Nameplate capture is the ability to photograph the label on a piece of equipment, an AC unit, furnace, or water heater, and have the built-in AI read the make, model, and serial number automatically.
Why it matters for home service businesses
For service trades, this saves time and cuts errors. The next time a customer calls about that property, you already know exactly what is installed, which speeds diagnosis and reduces callbacks and second trips.
How Lakehouse handles it
Lakehouse uses AI to capture equipment details from a photo and keeps them with the property for cleaner records. See equipment records.
