GearDex

GearDex is an inventory and workflow app for camera equipment, built for photographers, videographers, and studios who want one reliable record of what they own, what it is worth, and where it is.

Each item holds brand and model, serial number, mount, photos, purchase date and price, current market value, condition, storage location, and notes — with dedicated sections for cameras, lenses, accessories, filters, and drones (including FAA registration and Remote ID fields). Record Readiness flags items missing a photo, serial number, or receipt. Smart Add reads a plain sentence or a photo and turns it into gear records for you to review; CSV import uses templates for each gear type and checks every row. Every plan exports a full account backup as ZIP, JSON, or CSV.

On Pro, receipts, warranty cards, manuals, and insurance policies attach to the items they belong to, with alerts before a warranty expires. Reports show value trends, breakdowns by category and brand, and a one-click insurance PDF. The rig builder groups bodies, lenses, and accessories, totals weight and value, and prints QR labels that open the item's page when scanned.

Shoot planning covers locations, call sheets and crew contacts, moodboards, checklists, weather, and sun, moon, and tide times, plus packing manifests and a production readiness check. Iris, the built-in AI assistant, answers questions about your own kit, checks lens-to-camera mount compatibility, and drafts shot lists without ever editing records on its own.

Showcases publish selected gear as a public page with retailer links; the Studio plan adds loan tracking, maintenance, an availability board, team workspaces, and an API with webhooks.

GearDex runs in modern browsers and as a notarized native Mac app (Desktop 1.2.0, macOS 13+) at https://www.geardex.app/download. Starter is free for up to 25 items; Pro is $39 a year; Studio is $179 a year. Founded in 2025 by Dylan Andersen in Irvine, California.
