Site inspections and progress tracking

Site inspection appthat leaves a record, not a memory.

Most site inspections are done properly and written up badly. Run the inspection on the phone as you walk it — every finding photographed, located and assigned — and the report exists by the time you get back to the van.

Visit

One building on a routine inspection round

The inspection happens on site. The record happens hours later.

Notes in a pad, photographs in a camera roll, and an evening spent matching one to the other. The inspection itself was thorough — what reaches the client or the file is whatever survived the write-up, and it arrives days after anyone could have acted on it.

Photos that lost their context

Four hundred images in a camera roll, and no reliable way to say which room each one came from.

Findings nobody owns

An issue written in a notebook has no owner, no due date and no way of showing it was closed.

No comparison between visits

Without the last inspection to hand, you cannot say whether something is new, worse or already fixed.

Walk it, record it, send it.

01 · Set up the siteAdd the building and its spaces once, or capture the floor plan as you walk it on the first visit.
02 · Inspect space by spaceWork through the rooms on your phone, answering the same checks in the same order every time.
03 · Evidence each findingPhotograph it, annotate the photo where it helps, and record severity and who needs to act.
04 · Report before you leaveGenerate the inspection report on site and send it while the detail is still fresh.

Built for the way inspections actually run.

An inspection is a sequence of spaces, a set of checks and a pile of evidence. Each one is a real record here, so the next visit continues the story rather than starting a new one.

Your own inspection form

Build the checks you actually run, with conditional questions that only appear when they are relevant.

Findings tied to spaces

Every issue sits in a specific room or zone on the floor plan, not in a free-text location field.

Photographic evidence

Capture, annotate and measure on the image itself, so the finding is self-explanatory to whoever reads it.

Works with no signal

Plant rooms, basements and half-built floors. The whole inspection is captured on the device and syncs later.

Visit-on-visit history

Reopen the same site next time and see what was raised before, what closed and what is still open.

Reports on the spot

The captured inspection becomes the PDF or export — nothing is retyped into a separate document.

Start from a site inspection template.

Open the ready-made inspection form, adjust the checks to match your own procedure, and assign it to the spaces you are inspecting.

Browse every FAQ →
What is a site inspection app?+

A site inspection app replaces the clipboard and camera used on a routine site visit. The inspector works through the checks on a phone or tablet, photographs each finding, and records where in the building it was found. Because the evidence is attached to the finding as it is captured, the inspection report can be produced on site rather than written up afterwards from notes.

Can we use our own inspection checklist?+

Yes. Forms are built to match the procedure you already follow, including conditional questions that only appear when an earlier answer makes them relevant. You are not fitting your inspection to somebody else's fixed template.

How is progress tracked between inspections?+

Each site keeps its history. When you reopen it for the next inspection you can see what was raised previously, what has been closed and what is still outstanding, which is what makes a routine round useful rather than repetitive.

Does it work without a signal?+

Yes. Inspections are captured on the device, including photographs and annotations, and sync when connectivity returns. Basements, risers and early-stage construction sites are exactly where inspections happen and signal does not.

Can more than one person inspect the same site at once?+

Yes. Multiple team members can capture against the same project at the same time, each working through different spaces, and the results come together in one record.

What happens to the photographs?+

They stay attached to the finding and the space they were taken in, rather than sitting in a camera roll. That is what makes them usable months later, when someone needs to prove the condition of a room on a particular date.
