Planned, not built:

- Photos attached to each finding
- A report built as you go
- Booking and invoice
- Repeat inspection templates

What a day could look like, for building inspectors
You walk a house with a phone. Each room has its checks, each defect has a photo, and by the time you reach the car the report is drafted, ready to check and send with the invoice.
How we plan to make sure it works
When it is built, we will run it for weeks in a simulated business first, then let three real businesses use it for a month. Only then will it get a price here.
