Photo floorplan package app

Capture property photography orders on a device that keeps working with no signal, then produce the photo floorplan package from your own Word template — with the prose drafted against your own standards library.

Built for real estate agents running teams of roughly 3–50 inspectors.

The loop you are running today

Pre-purchase inspection is the highest-volume report business there is, and the report has to land the same evening. Most inspectors are running a forms app for capture and Word for the write-up, with the standard’s required wording pasted in by hand each time — which is where the liability sits.

The tell is simple: you are running a forms app plus Word plus a spreadsheet plus email, and re-typing the same findings into all four to get one photo floorplan package out the door.

How the photo floorplan package gets built

Capture it once, offline

Your firm builds the property photography order form in-app — 25 field types, nesting repeatable groups, compound AND/OR visibility rules, reusable modules and calculated fields. Field capture works with no signal: jobs, forms, photos, notes and audio all queue in an idempotent outbox that only clears once the server confirms receipt.

Link it to your rooms and external areas

Enter rooms and external areas once, as a register. Every one of your defects, photos and timber pest findings then points at a stored row rather than a name somebody typed — and the links survive a disconnected device.

Render your own template

The photo floorplan package renders into the Word template you already use — your letterhead, your section order, your clause library — with conditionals, loops over repeats, composable sub-templates and photo grids.

Drafted against your standards, not a generic model

You upload your own reference library — PDF, Word, Excel, CSV — and it is indexed for retrieval. A {{ai: …}} marker placed inside your Word template runs Claude at render time and drops the drafted prose into that exact spot.

Where two sources conflict, the retrieved passages are labelled with their authority and the model is instructed to follow the higher one and state what it overrode. A document you mark superseded is excluded outright.

What a residential property firm typically loads

  • AS 4349.1 — pre-purchase inspection of buildings
  • AS 4349.3 and AS 3660.2 for timber pest work
  • National Construction Code provisions you cite routinely
  • Your own limitations, exclusions and scope-of-inspection wording
  • Your professional indemnity insurer’s reporting requirements

Reviewed before it leaves

You write the review framework: a checklist of what a photo floorplan package must contain, plus the prose standards you would mark a junior against. Link it to a report template and it runs every time that template renders. Each finding comes back graded info, minor or major, quoting the sentence at fault, and a person accepts or dismisses every one.

Because the structured submission behind the report is held too, the review is a comparison rather than a proofread: The summary says no major defects were found; the form carries a major structural defect on the rear wall.

Checks a residential property framework usually carries

  • The standard’s required wording, limitations and exclusions are all present
  • Every area is either reported on or listed as not accessed, with a reason
  • Each defect in the summary appears in the body at the same severity
  • Timber pest findings carry the risk statement the standard requires

What this is not

Worth knowing before you book a demo, so neither of us wastes the half hour.

  • Not field-service dispatch. No timesheets, no parts, no inventory. Scheduling exists to get an inspector to a site.
  • No signature capture. If your deliverable has to carry a signed sign-off on the artefact itself, this is not the tool yet.
  • Field capture is what works offline — jobs, forms, photos, notes and audio. Reports, chat, scheduling and the inbox need a connection.
  • No client portal. Reports go out as a file or a password-protected link.
