See a real list in 30 seconds ↓How Facilist works: you take a photo of the thing you need to explain, you speak while looking at it, your words are transcribed onto the item next to the photo, and the person you share the list with sees the photo, reads your words, and can play your voice — in their browser, with no app or account.
The problem isn’t the list.
It’s the handoff.
You know what the photo means, where it was taken, and what needs to happen next. The person receiving it doesn’t.
The usual handoff
spare key is in the box, alarm is the usual code
Which box? The one on the garage?
Sorry — what’s the usual code?
The photos are in one place, the explanations in another — and half of them stayed in your head.
The Facilist handoff
Here’s the house list 👇
Got it — found the key, alarm’s off. All clear. 👍
The photo and the explanation stay together, behind one link.
You talk. Facilist writes it down.
Your voice is transcribed onto the item and the original recording is kept — so the list explains itself without you typing a word.
Recording…
1One shutter, one recording
The photo and your voice are captured in the same motion, while you’re still standing in front of the thing. Nothing to label afterward.

“There is a spare key that will open the back door. It is in the lockbox on the back door of the garage. The code is 4-7-2-2.”
2Your words become the item
Facilist transcribes what you said onto the photo, and keeps the recording too — so nothing is lost in the shorthand.
0:14
“Trash goes out on Tuesday morning. Make sure both trash cans are taken to the curb by 8:00 a.m.”
3They just open the link
It opens in their browser — no app, no account — and you can stop sharing whenever you want.
Different lists. Same missing context.
Wherever a list needs an explanation, Facilist keeps the explanation with it.

“For the household alarm, punch in the code 1-9-8-4 at the keypad by the front door. Make sure you do that within 30 seconds of coming in.”
Codes like these stay behind a private, unguessable link that is never listed or indexed — and you can stop sharing a list anytime.
Who’s behind it
I’m Jeffrey Duncan, a bug-finder and problem solver in Utah, USA. Facilist started with walkthroughs — my wife prepping homes for sale, and an office punch list. Describing each problem, and where it was, took far too long. Read why I built it →
What the first testers say
“It really felt like doing a screen capture tutorial of the real world.”
“Simple to use. Great for my ADHD brain.”
Make the list once. Explain it once.
Capture the photo and the explanation together, then send one link.
