Nova Apps let you build your own tools inside UpKeep. You describe what you need in plain language, and Nova builds it using the data already in your account. Apps work on desktop and mobile.
Download the one-pager: Nova Apps for Facilities Teams at the bottom of this page.
How it works
Describe it. Tell Nova what you want the app to do.
Preview it. See the app before you share it.
Refine it. Ask for changes until it works the way you want.
Share it. Give your team access.
Apps a facilities team can build
Work order closeout assistant (in the field)
Helps techs close work orders and writes a completion note for them.
"Build a mobile-friendly Work Order Closeout Assistant. Let users select one of their open work orders, enter the issue, fix, verification, parts used, and follow-up, then use AI to draft an editable completion note without inventing details."
Multi-site dashboard (across your portfolio)
Shows open and overdue work across your buildings and sites.
"Build a dashboard showing open and overdue work orders and PMs grouped by location, sorted by most overdue."
Repair-or-replace assistant (for planning)
Pulls up an asset's history so you can make repair-or-replace and capital planning decisions.
"Build an app where I select an asset and it summarizes its work order history, total downtime, and recurring issues."
Asset nameplate scanner (assets, parts, and equipment)
Adds new assets from a photo of the equipment nameplate.
"Build an app that reads a photo of an equipment nameplate and creates an asset with the make, model, and serial number."
Tips for your first app
Start with a recurring headache. Pick a task your team does over and over.
Say who will use it and on what device. For example: "for techs on mobile."
Name the data you want to see. Work orders, PMs, assets, locations, and so on.
Refine one change at a time. Small changes are easier to check.
