The home inspection industry is booming — over 3 million inspections are performed every year in the US alone, with 95% of all home sales including a professional inspection. Yet most inspectors are still spending 2+ hours writing each report after they leave the property, juggling photos in their camera roll, and chasing payments through email. The software you choose determines whether you finish reports on-site and get home for dinner — or spend every evening typing at your desk. HomeInspecto is home inspection software built specifically for independent US inspectors who want to write reports faster, deliver professional branded PDFs, and manage their entire business from one platform. Whether you're a solo inspector doing 3 inspections a week or a multi-inspector firm handling 30+, HomeInspecto replaces the patchwork of tools with a single mobile-first workflow — from online booking and on-site report writing to photo annotation, client delivery, and digital payments. No late nights. No clunky desktop software. Just fast, professional inspections from your phone or tablet.

Frequently Asked Questions

What devices does HomeInspecto work on?
HomeInspecto works on iPhones, iPads, Android phones, Android tablets, and any desktop browser. Most inspectors use a phone or tablet on-site for report writing and photo capture, then review and finalize on desktop if needed. Everything syncs automatically across devices.
How long does it take to set up?
Most inspectors are up and running in under 10 minutes. Upload your logo, choose a report template, and you're ready for your first inspection. If you want to import a custom comment library or build custom checklists, that takes a bit longer — but our support team will walk you through it. Start your free trial and see for yourself.

How is HomeInspecto different from Spectora or HomeGauge?
HomeInspecto is purpose-built for independent US home inspectors who want a fast, mobile-first workflow with professional PDF output.
