Introducing Inspection Assistant – Your New Digital Coworker in Fire & Life Safety

For more than a decade, Inspect Point has helped fire protection companies modernize inspection, testing, and maintenance. Today, we’re moving beyond simply digitizing workflows and into proactively improving them.

With the launch of Inspection Assistant, the industry’s first AI tool built specifically for fire and life safety inspections, we’re giving technicians, managers, and office teams a powerful new partner in the field and office.

A Smarter Way to Inspect

Inspection Assistant is more than a feature — it’s a digital coworker that works alongside you in real time. As an inspection is completed, the AI instantly reviews the technician’s inputted data for and missing, inconsistent, or inaccurate information. If something doesn’t look right, it’s flagged on the spot, based on your unique company’s historical inspection data. The technician can accept or reject suggestions so they are always in control of the final report content. From there, whoever is reviewing the inspection report live can go through those flags and verify which need to be resolved by the technician on-site so it can be corrected before they leave.

By solving issues in the moment, Inspection Assistant reduces delays, prevents unnecessary return visits, and ensures that every report is complete and accurate when it reaches the back office. It’s a way to work faster without sacrificing quality — in fact, quality improves.

From Backlog to Breakthrough

On top of running a team, many inspection managers face a mountain of reports to review each week. Inspection Assistant changes that dynamic entirely. Instead of combing through every detail, managers can focus on exceptions that truly require their attention. This speeds up the approval process and shortens the time between performing an inspection and delivering a finished report to the customer.

One customer described the impact this way:

“We’re excited to leverage Inspect Point’s AI capabilities to deliver consistency in our Inspections Department with its ability to adapt to our company’s unique procedures,” said Cory Blair, Operations Manager at Genesis Building Systems. “AI-driven audits in the field will minimize return trips and report revisions, accelerating turnaround times and reducing administrative workload, ultimately enhancing the customer experience.”

For office staff, fewer errors mean fewer back-and-forth requests with the field, faster AHJ submissions, and less time spent troubleshooting. At a higher level, companies can expect to see these results translate to more first-pass submissions and billable inspections per technician, as well as improved profit margins — all without increasing headcount.

What Beta Customers Are Saying

During our beta program, customers who tested Inspection Assistant shared how it’s already transforming their workflow.

One told us, “I really like this … it would make things easier and is a nice double-check before it gets sent to the office.” On the review process, he added, “I really like being able to send it back to the technician saying ‘hey fix this.’ If it’s not showing up on their iPad, they’d forget about it.”

Another saw immediate value in catching issues before reports leave the job site. “An AI that could identify and flag problems in an inspection report even before leaving would be very useful… This setup eliminates the manual emailing and checking we do now.”

A third highlighted the time savings for managers, saying, “Inspection Assistant would be very useful. The biggest hiccup right now is waiting for techs to send missing details — this gives me a clear way to notify them and get it fixed.”

Across the board, beta testers said Inspection Assistant helped them cut review time, reduce missed information, and improve the completeness of inspection reports — without adding extra steps to their workflow.

Built for the Realities of the Field

Inspection Assistant was designed for the unique challenges of fire protection work. Every recommendation it makes is grounded in your company’s processes and informed by industry standards. It works 24/7, never misses a step, and stays consistent no matter how busy your schedule gets.

For technicians, that means confidence that their work is complete and compliant before they pack up their tools. For managers, it’s the reassurance that quality is built in from the start — without adding to their workload.
