Mobile workflow
SmartStart Command Panel
This is the guided cockpit for the whole inspection business. Start the day here, move the inspection forward, review AI drafts, and keep buyer, realtor, money, and support workflows connected.
Start with the next card
Use this first when you log in. It keeps setup, fieldwork, and review simple by showing the one next move instead of making you hunt through menus.
Open Command PanelSee the next safe move
This card keeps momentum up. It should point you to the next approval, setup step, or inspection task so work keeps moving without guesswork.
Open approval queue guideFinish the first launch basics
Keep the first launch short and clear. Buy the plan, open the panel, review the first workflow guides, and get the first inspection moving.
Review launch pathStart the first job from one card
The first inspection record should hold the property, services, photos, findings, and deliverables together from the start.
Open inspection room guideKeep every photo attached to the right job
Review photos, catch weak evidence, and connect approved images to the right finding before the report goes out.
Review the draft instead of writing from scratch
AI can draft the finding, but the inspector still reviews every card, edits what needs work, and approves only what is right.
Get the post-approval deliverables ready
Once the report is approved, move into clearer buyer summaries and realtor-friendly follow-up so clients understand what comes next.

Pic Sync, voice capture, AI finding cards, and approval actions should stay readable and touch-safe on a phone.
No report leaves without approval
AI drafts help the inspector move faster, but the final inspection language still requires human review and approval.
