The phone collects a voice explanation, photographs, typed notes, readings and short video clips of 30 seconds. Photo markup points to a detail that is hard to see in a wide shot. The inspector names the location and describes the condition in their own words.
Captures save on the phone with no signal and upload when you reconnect. You need a connection for transcription, drafting and sending. The web app handles the desk work: places, visits, reports and tasks.
Team templates carry your logo and report language. The author reads the draft, adds the conclusion and signs it. The report goes out as PDF and DOCX attachments, and the recipient confirms receipt with a link.
The report activity log keeps the visit start and end, each capture, every version, the signature, each send and each acknowledgment. It reads as a dated paper trail of the inspection. PropelMapper does not diagnose defects or survey the property, and the log is a readable history, not a sealed archive.
Set up the inspection record
Tell us the place names your team uses, such as property and building, and we set them when the team starts. Then set up Checklists, Metric types and Reports for the checks, readings and report layout your team uses. A place’s status or category picks the report template, so each kind of inspection your team does can have its own.
Keep the room, doorway, roof area or equipment ID in the note. A place boundary locates the property, but the interior references come from what you say and photograph. A broad view and a close view of the same spot help someone reading the report at a desk understand the condition.
Keep conclusions within the inspection scope
Say which areas were locked or not inspected and what needs a closer look, and that goes into the draft with the rest of the findings. A photo shows a stain, and your note says what you think caused it. When a contractor says the work is done, note it as their statement until you see the work yourself.
The recipient’s confirmation records that the report arrived. It does not approve a repair. An assigned task holds the return inspection with a person and a date. PropelMapper does not issue certifications or track compliance, so the report is your inspection write-up on your team’s template.
