StashDog vs Sortly
Sortly wants $29/month to organize your home. StashDog is free forever.
And not "free with a 100-item cap" free. Actually, properly, no-credit-card-required free.
StashDog
Built for homes & families
Sortly
Built for small businesses
Feature by Feature
The full breakdown — no asterisks, no "contact sales for pricing."
Sortly is built for businesses. You're not a business.
Sortly started as a warehouse management tool for small businesses tracking product inventory. If you're running a stockroom, great. If you just want to know which box your KitchenAid is in — it's overkill.
It's Free. Actually Free.
No 100-item limit. No 14-day trial. No "starter plan" that expires. StashDog is free forever with every feature included.
AI Does the Work
Take a photo. Our AI recognizes and categorizes it automatically. No manual data entry, no typing out descriptions, no fiddling with spreadsheets.
Built for Home Chaos
Junk drawers. Storage units. The garage where hope goes to die. StashDog is designed around how homes actually work, not how warehouses work.
Moving Made Survivable
QR code your boxes, photograph the contents, and never spend 45 minutes looking for your router again. StashDog turns moving day from a nightmare into a mildly stressful Tuesday.
Family Sharing, Free
Sortly charges extra for team access. StashDog gives your whole family access out of the box — share collections, assign locations, and stop arguing about who has the scissors.
Insurance-Ready
Catalog your valuables with photos, purchase prices, and serial numbers. If you ever need to file a claim, your entire home inventory is documented and searchable.
To be fair: Sortly is better if you run a small business
If you're managing a physical retail store, a photography equipment rental operation, or tracking stock across multiple locations for a business — Sortly's reporting tools and multi-user business features are designed exactly for that.
If you're a human person who lives in a house and owns stuff... you don't need any of that. You need something fast, free, and smart enough to keep up with real life. That's StashDog.
What people say after switching
Real humans who were paying for Sortly and aren't anymore.
"I was paying $29/month for Sortly to track my garage stuff. Found StashDog, switched in 20 minutes. Free forever. I felt a little stupid about the Sortly bill."
"Used Sortly for moving because my friend recommended it. Hit the item limit on day one. Switched to StashDog mid-move. Chaotic but worth it."
"My wife and I needed to catalog the house for insurance. Sortly kept asking us to upgrade. StashDog just... worked. And it was free. We felt seen."
Common questions
Can I import my data from Sortly into StashDog?
We're working on a direct Sortly import tool. In the meantime, you can export your Sortly data as CSV and reach out to our team — we'll help you get set up.
Does StashDog have a web app like Sortly?
StashDog is currently mobile-first (iOS and Android). A web dashboard is on our roadmap. For most home inventory tasks, the mobile experience is faster and more natural anyway.
What happens if StashDog adds paid plans?
Our core home inventory features will always be free. If we add a premium tier, it'll be for power features — not to lock basic functionality behind a paywall the way Sortly does.
Is StashDog available on both iPhone and Android?
Yes. StashDog is available on iOS (iPhone and iPad) and Android. Both apps have the same features and stay in sync.
