For businesses in the Netherlands

The invisible layer for physical hassle.

HomeZero aims to handle the physical side of running a business: vehicles, printer paper and ink, even the coffee in the pantry. Today we send APK reminders by hand.

APK is the Dutch periodic vehicle inspection, similar to the MOT.

What we do

HomeZero aims to be the invisible AI layer that handles the physical hassle of running a business, so nothing runs out, expires or gets forgotten. We start with vehicles, then supplies such as printer paper, ink and toner.

Fewer missed dates.

We look up APK dates today and aim to cover more recurring jobs later.

One overview.

Vehicles, supplies and upkeep in one place, instead of in your head and a pile of notes.

You stay in charge.

We aim to prepare the work; later, HomeZero AI asks for your approval before it acts.

Features

Five areas HomeZero wants to take off your hands. Each shows its status, so you know what exists and what does not yet.

Pilot, by hand

Intelligent Mobility

We look up APK dates in open RDW data and email a reminder; a maintenance calendar is next.

Coming next

Enterprise Continuity

We aim to message you before printer paper, ink, toner and other supplies run out, first as a reminder service.

Planned

Nutritional Logistics

We aim to restock coffee, drinks and food used inside your company, such as in the canteen and pantry.

Planned

Domestic Stewardship

We aim to plan upkeep of buildings and equipment and keep warranty dates in one place.

Planned

Scalable Operations

We aim to grow from a few vehicles to fleets and several locations. A logistics AI for your warehouse is a long-term idea, far from built.

HomeZero AI, the layer that will prepare these jobs for your approval, is planned. It does not exist yet.

  • Intelligent Mobility Pilot, by hand

    We look up APK dates in open RDW data and email a reminder.

    Today we do this by hand. Next: a maintenance calendar per vehicle and garage quote requests. Later, HomeZero AI aims to plan jobs and book appointments, with your approval.

  • Enterprise Continuity Coming next

    We aim to message you before printer paper, ink and toner run out.

    First as a reminder service: we aim to message you when paper, ink, toner or other supplies need reordering. Later, HomeZero AI aims to place those orders for you, with your approval, once a supplier allows it.

  • Nutritional Logistics Planned

    We aim to restock coffee, drinks and food for your office or canteen.

    For food and drink used inside a company: coffee, canteen and pantry. We aim to spot what runs low and prepare the reorder for your approval. It is planned, not built.

  • Domestic Stewardship Planned

    We aim to plan upkeep of buildings and equipment in one calendar.

    One calendar for servicing and checks of premises and equipment, plus warranty dates. We aim to help diagnose faults. HomeZero AI would suggest the next step; you approve it.

  • Scalable Operations Planned

    From a few vehicles to fleets and several locations, in one overview.

    We aim to grow with you, from one vehicle to a fleet, one site to several. A logistics AI that runs a company's warehouse is a long-term idea, far from built.

Illustration of the idea, not the product.

How it works

  1. Sign up and confirm.

    Fill in the form, then confirm your email address. We then email you to ask what you want covered. For vehicles, that is your number plates.

  2. We start by hand.

    Today we read the open RDW data for your vehicles and set up your APK reminders ourselves.

  3. You get a reminder in time.

    You receive an email before a date comes up, so you can plan the job in your own time.

  4. Later, the AI helps.

    We aim to automate the steps we now do by hand. Nothing happens without your approval.

Check your APK date

Enter the number plate of a company vehicle to see when its APK expires. It uses open RDW data and runs in your browser.

Please enter a full number plate, at least 6 letters or digits.

Your number plate goes straight from your browser to the RDW. We do not store it.

What a reminder looks like

Example, not a real message

APK for AB-123-C expires on 14 March

From HomeZero

The APK for number plate AB-123-C expires on 14 March.

Book an inspection in good time, so you are not caught out on the day.

Questions, answered honestly

Is HomeZero available now?

Not fully. We are opening a beta and want to start with a small group of businesses. Today the only things that exist are APK reminders, sent by hand, and a free APK check tool that runs in your browser. Everything else on this page is planned.

What does the AI do?

Honestly: nothing yet. Today people at HomeZero do the work by hand. Later, HomeZero AI aims to do these steps automatically, such as spotting what is due and preparing a reorder or an appointment. It will ask for your approval before it acts.

Which businesses is this for?

We want to start with small businesses that run a few company vehicles, such as vans or cars, and later want help with supplies such as printer paper, ink and toner. Our aim is to grow from a few vehicles to fleets and several locations.

Does HomeZero order things for me?

Not yet. Today we only send reminders. Ordering printer paper, ink, toner and drinks is planned and would need your approval each time. For some orders it also depends on a supplier that allows it.

Where does the data come from?

The APK expiry date comes from the open data of the RDW, which publishes it per number plate for free reuse. For everything else, the information comes from you.

Does the APK check store my number plate?

No. Your number plate goes straight from your browser to the RDW. We do not store it.

Why must I confirm my email address?

So we know the address is yours and typed correctly. Your sign-up only counts after you click the link in our email.

Does HomeZero run my warehouse?

No. A logistics AI that manages a company's warehouse is a long-term idea, far from built. We mention it so you know where we would like to go.

Is this available outside the Netherlands?

Not yet. We start in the Netherlands because we use Dutch vehicle data (RDW). We have no plans or dates for other countries to share today. Tell us in the form if you would use it elsewhere.

What happens with my data?

We use your contact details and your number plates only to run the beta and to contact you about it. We do not sell your data. You can ask us to delete it at any time. See our privacy page.

Ready for less hassle?

We are starting with a small group of businesses in the Netherlands. Request beta access and we will get in touch.
