Inspection templates: build once, reuse everywhere

Save the inspections you run most as templates (eg "Move-in", "Routine"). Capture the areas you walk through, checklists for each, custom instructions, and more. They keep your inspections and their final reports consistent, no matter who on your team does the inspection.

What's changed

- Build a template for each inspection you run, like Move-in, Routine, and Final
- Start from scratch, duplicate one of your own, or pick a ready-made template from our library
- Add instructions to any area and they appear the moment an inspector opens it on site
- Mark the areas you can't afford to miss as required. Everything else stays flexible, and areas you skip stay off the report
- On site, the app guides you through your areas in order and suggests the next one as you go
- New to templates? Watch our 1-minute overview

How to get it

Templates live in your web dashboard under Templates. On your phone, update to app version 1.11.2 or later from the App Store or Google Play to make the most of them while inspecting. Happy inspecting!

Checklists just got superpowered

We are excited to release v2.0 of checklists. Previously, when building a checklist, you'd itemize things to check, and you'd get a simple (but powerful) "no issues"/"requires attention". This has worked for years, but by popular demand, we have extended our checklists to be much more powerful. Now, it's hard to imagine inspections and workflows that you can't run on myInspections. As of today on the web, and from v1.11.13 in the app, checklists include five types: • Condition: Our trusty ...

NSPIRE checklists

We've built a new flow for running NSPIRE inspections. They are catered specifically for U.S. Affordable Housing providers. If they apply to you, we think you'll be very happy to know about our first-class support for them! • Every NSPIRE standard is an area, and every deficiency is a one-tap answer with its location and severity. Skip any area that doesn't apply by marking it N/A. • Get started with our NSPIRE inspection checklist template. • It's an early release, so expect changes, and we...
