There’s a lot of dead time during conferences when inspectors are in training sessions. It’s a good time for vendors to get to know each other. Before inspection report software became part of the big corporate world, we were all small privately owned companies. We all knew each other.

So true and easy to understand. The HI market is so tiny. Between the US and Canada, maybe 60-65,000 inspectors.  
This is a small pie with a dozen or so slices coming out after Spectora’s large slice. I think Spectora has about 9500 subscriptions. Some years ago, I was advised to only consider software that has been around at least 5 years. That advice still seems good.

Years ago, I used EZ. Back then it was a buy and own. It was pretty good and had a pretty report. I decided I wanted something not just Colorado centric, but something that resembled the ITT matrix report, which I had used for a few years and liked. So, I developed my own digital report which is a cross between checkboxes and narrative. I’ve never tried to commercialize it. Getting ready for prime time would require some effort and time that I’ve never been convinced is worth it. On the other hand, my stepson who’s starting to get into the biz with me, wants something that he can do on his phone and would like to try something commercial.

Speaking of new software, it looks like Home Inspection Tech is the new kid on the block. I think these guys solicited input a year or so ago on this forum.

Neither of those showed up in my searches and I had forgotten both of them. There was time when lots of HIs mentioned 3D when this topic came up.

In my searches, it looks like pricing breaks down like this: Some of the monthly subscriptions have cheaper annual rates.

Spectora $99/mo

Inspection Toolbelt 79/mo

HIP 74/mo

EZ 199/yr

ISN 7.25/inspection

Palmtech 500/yr

Home Inspector Tech 840/yr

Horizon 799/yr

Report Host $6/inspection (10 reports for $50)

Edit:

Spectacular $59/mo or $6/report or $150/25 reports

InspectorPrime $54/mo or $540/yr plus Airtable business plan (dunno what that is)

Tap Inspect $7.50/report or $90/month

Inspector Nexus $55/mo 600/yr or $5/report

[Bestinspectors.net](http://Bestinspectors.net) $545 one time (some lower cost options)

I’m surprised we have not heard from Jonathon and his InspectorPrime software that runs on Airtable (Those Airtable assholes have spammed me with emails more than once a day for the past week just for setting up an account to view a sample report. WTF) or the Canadian sign language home inspectors with InspectGram.  
Lon, are these guys not popping up in your google searches for “home inspection software”

And let’s not forget Inspector Nexus. It’s Jeff Pope’s birthday after all. Happy Birthday, Jeff.

That sucks.

They’re probably mad at you for pulling the curtain open to their wares.

Regardless, that’s just bad business that none of us will forget.

You can add InspectorPrime ([https://inspectorprime.com](https://inspectorprime.com)) to the list. I’m the vendor/software developer. Happy to discuss in depth but as you were compiling a list I’ll add ours to the bunch.

Isn’t your company the one that’s associated with and does business with Airtable?

Our system does indeed run on Airtable. I’m not sure where you came up with the assumption that we’re “mad.” We are here to engage and answer questions. I’d reckon most developers won’t be as open as we are. That company does not send out “spam.” Quite simply, Airtable is our backend provider and is a billion dollar company, they’re not in the business of sending out so-called spam. There may be some angst about introductory emails but some folks are a bit more sensitive.

So I guess our Member of the Year is lying to make you look bad?

Even if Bert is exaggerating, introductory emails from 3rd parties are not something we want for our customers! Heck, I won’t sign in for the same reason. I won’t ask them to.

If sending unsolicited emails is not spam, what is it?

Bert said he signed up and now regrets it.

I am curious how many introductory emails are needed before he is allowed to consider it spam.

It is an issue you must overcome, in addition to developing competitive software.

Once you become defensive, the battle is lost especially when you minimize concerns.

Nobody ever mentions Spectacular. I switched to them from EZ and was so happy to leave the other one behind. I find that the layout for use is fantastic, customizable, and functional. The finished report looks great. I get a lot of praise (from agents and clients )for how well my reports read compared to other inspectors who have check boxes with unusual abbreviations, too much nonsense, and links all over the place for other reports. That was the biggest seller for me. I honestly don’t know what I pay a year, but it is worth it. Also, the company is owned and managed by one dude who is very helpful and quick to respond (vs EZ-their customer support is why I left them).

Totally forgot about Spectacular and it’s another one that did not appear on my searches. A few years ago, a HI told me that his company of 10 or so inspectors used Spectacular and loved it.

> [@jajinga](#):

Another one that didn’t appear in my searches. I worded the searches several different ways on Bing and Google. I don’t know didley about Airtable, but I know Bert and he strikes me as a pretty tough guy to piss off. He’s about as easy going as you’re going to find in this biz.
