Workarounds Described

enters crawl space manually despite SOP saying visual only
moves couch or boxes to inspect behind obstacles

App Concept

ThoroughCheck Pro

ThoroughCheck Pro is a home inspection platform that helps inspectors perform detailed, non-visual-only inspections while managing liability. It provides guided checklists for crawl spaces, attics, and hidden areas, with photo/video evidence capture and real-time risk alerts for items that could lead to legal issues. Unlike generic software, it encourages thoroughness and documents reasons for deviations from SOP.

Key Features

Guided comprehensive inspection checklists for all areas including crawl spaces and attics
Automatic evidence capture (photo, video, notes) with timestamp and GPS
Risk alert system that flags observations with high liability potential
Single-inspection-per-day scheduling module to reduce rush
Client portal with detailed, annotated reports for transparency

Target Users: New and independent home inspectors in residential real estate markets, especially those trying to differentiate on thoroughness

Revenue Model: $39/mo per user subscription with a free tier for basic report generation, pro tier at $79/mo for full features
