Features
Scoped, read-only property links for tenants, guests, and anyone who needs to know — without needing an account.
Casabeza holds a detailed record of your home: every appliance, every maintenance schedule, every location and place. Most of that is internal. Some of it is genuinely useful to other people — tenants finding the stopcock, guests troubleshooting the boiler, tradespeople who need to know where the mains panel is.
Share views are how that information gets out of the system and into the right hands, without granting anyone access to your account.
A share view is a named, scoped link. You define exactly what it contains — which locations, which rooms, which individual items — and send the link to whoever needs it. No login required. The recipient sees a clean, read-only page with the information you chose to include.
Each view has a unique slug in a memorable format — something like /s/running-austere-blue-aardvark/ — that can be regenerated at any time without changing the underlying view. Old links stop working. The content stays.
When creating a view you choose three things independently:
Each section can be on or off. A view for a tenant moving in might include inventory and history but not upcoming tasks. A view for a letting agent might be inventory-only. A view shared ahead of a service visit might show only the relevant item and its upcoming window.
Items appear in a view one of three ways:
These compose. A view might include everything in the kitchen by room, plus the boiler from the utility cupboard by item. When a new item is added to a scoped location it appears in the view automatically.
Every entry in a view can carry a note written for the external audience. Location notes set context for a whole area. Room notes describe a specific place. Item notes carry anything the recipient needs to know about that particular object — where to find the manual, what to do if it behaves oddly, when it was last serviced.
Notes are written and updated from the view editor. They don't affect the item's own record.
When upcoming tasks are enabled, each item shows its scheduled windows. A window can carry a preferred start time, an estimated duration, and a note — useful for coordinating access or communicating what the work involves.
The shared page includes an alert widget that activates automatically as a window approaches. It turns amber 24 hours before the start, red at 2 hours, and pulses when the window is active. No page reload required. Whoever is looking at the link sees it change in real time.
Share views are designed to be temporary as often as permanent. An expiry date makes this explicit — once the date passes, the link returns a 404. A view built for a single tenancy can be set to expire at the end of the lease. A view for a specific service visit can expire the day after.
Views can be deactivated without deleting them, and cloned when a new situation closely resembles an existing one — same scope, new slug, same notes.
The last time a shared link was accessed is recorded and shown in the editor. A link that has never been opened is visually distinct from one that has been visited recently. There is no detailed access log — just the signal that the information has or has not been received.
