Why we build

For people who take ownership.

Thomas Rizzie and Javier Garcia started Sweat Tech with a simple belief: people who choose hard things, carry real responsibility, and intend to win deserve serious tools. We build for people who expect more from themselves—and from the technology they trust.

Castellan began with the responsibility closest to us: our own homes. Even as engineers building complex systems and pushing AI to its practical limits, we were still handed buried manuals, invisible maintenance, and expensive surprises. The problem was not effort. Our homes had no operating system.

We built Castellan to give capable homeowners the leverage to stay ahead.

How we build

Turn complexity into leverage.

Castellan applies engineering discipline and modern AI to research, organize, and remember the care a home needs. It turns scattered evidence into useful context and clear next actions—so taking ownership does not mean carrying every detail yourself.

01

Understand what you own

Start with the exact appliance, system, or important item you own—not a generic checklist.

02

Do the research

Turn manuals, photos, receipts, and details into useful context and care you can act on.

03

Keep you ahead

Surface what matters next with clear reasoning—without guilt, false urgency, or noisy alerts.

The product today

The maintenance plan your home should have come with.

Castellan investigates the item, builds a personalized maintenance plan, and remembers the details and decisions that make future care easier. AI does the work. You stay in control.

01

Start with whatever evidence you have.

A photo, a sentence about the item, or a saved PDF is enough to begin. You can fill in the rest when you have it.

  • Photo-assisted intake
  • Descriptions and manual entry
  • PDF documents and records

02

Castellan figures out what you own—and what it needs.

Castellan enriches the record and builds recurring care. You review the result and change anything that does not fit your home.

  • Editable item identity and records
  • Recurring care plans
  • Warranty, ownership, and replacement details

03

Your whole home stays in view.

Today, Upcoming, Pending, and Activity turn scattered maintenance into one calm system.

  • Care organized by what needs attention
  • Upcoming work stays visible
  • Home items and history in one place

04

Know what to do—and why it matters.

Each plan explains the timing, effort, value, preparation, and safety behind the work. Then you decide what happens next.

  • Clear next care and effort
  • Guided steps, supplies, and safety
  • Complete, skip, or remind later

Context that compounds

Castellan doesn’t just build the plan. It remembers it.

Details, decisions, and completed care stay attached to the item—so knowledge stops disappearing into drawers, inboxes, and memory.

Remembered context

Everything important stays with the item.

Identity, care, supplies, documents, notes, and ownership details remain editable and easy to find.

Calm accountability

What you handled stays handled.

Completed care, skipped work, and supporting evidence form a practical history—not a guilt-driven backlog.

Questions, answered

Know exactly what you’re joining.

Still deciding? Email support@mycastellan.com.

Why did you build Castellan?

We founded Sweat Tech to build serious software for people who take ownership. Castellan applies that mission to our own homes: engineering discipline and modern AI replace scattered research, invisible maintenance, and memory with a system that helps homeowners stay ahead.

How much does Castellan cost?

Founder Pricing is planned at $4.99 per month or $39.99 per year when Castellan launches. Join the waitlist and we’ll email you when it is ready.

Is Castellan available now?

Not publicly yet. The iPhone and iPad app is release-ready but does not have a public App Store page. Join the Apple or Android waitlist and we’ll send one email when your version is ready.

What kinds of information can I add?

You can start an item with text, a photo, or a PDF. You can also add and edit item details, warranties, ownership records, documents, notes, expected replacement information, and a display image.

Can I correct what the AI finds?

Yes. AI-assisted results are a starting point, not a locked record. You stay in control and can edit your item information and care details.

Does Castellan replace a qualified professional?

No. Castellan organizes information and offers practical maintenance guidance, but it is not a substitute for manufacturer instructions or licensed professional advice. Stop and get expert help when a task involves safety, code, gas, high voltage, structural work, or anything outside your experience.
