Behind Cazmate, a simple belief
Running a family home shouldn't be a source of tension. It should be smooth, transparent and easy for everyone.
A story the founder has lived since childhood
My grandparents had a family home. Four children, fifteen grandchildren, and soon even more. At times, there were thirty of us sharing it.
Who's coming when? Who has the keys? Where's the plumber's number? Who paid for what? The same questions came up every stay, in messages, in phone calls, in misunderstandings.
When the grandparents are no longer around, it's down to you to run things. And without a proper tool, a house that should stay a place of joy turns into a source of friction.
I looked for a solution. I couldn't find one. So I built Cazmate.
A family home is worth the effort, and worth organising.

Who are we?
Cazmate is developed by TECHNOMATE, a company based in Saint-Malo, France.
Cazmate was founded by Guillaume Chantreau, who has been a tech entrepreneur for over 10 years. He has learnt one thing: a good product isn't built alone in a corner. It's built with its users, by listening to their real problems, iterating quickly and never overcomplicating things.
That's exactly how we build Cazmate. Every feature meets a real need. Every decision starts from one simple question: does this genuinely make life easier for the families who use it?
An app for family homes, designed by someone who grew up in one.

Private data, protected data
