The problem
The same four things slip through at every shop.
Nobody has time to read every page of every report. So owners spot check, and the rest goes out the door.
- 01
Writing
Typos, doubled words, and grammar that make a sharp inspector look careless.
- 02
Photos
A defect photo in the report with no explanation of what it shows or why it matters.
- 03
Boilerplate
Canned comments that stop halfway or never say what the client should do next.
- 04
State rules
Items your state requires the report to address that are simply missing.
How it works
Upload. Audit. Fix. Deliver.
- 01
Upload the report
Drop in the finished PDF from your report software. Large reports with hundreds of photos are fine.
- 02
GradeCharter™ reads all of it
Your state Standards of Practice come first. Then every narrative and the writing itself, plus every photo when you turn on photo review.
- 03
Fix it, then deliver
You get a letter grade and a punch list sorted by severity, with the section and page for each fix.
What it checks
Built for how inspection reports actually fail.
Every photo read, when you want it
Turn on photo review and every image is compared to what the report says, not a sample, so a defect photo with no explanation gets caught. Photo results sit beside the grade, not inside it.
Writing mechanics
Doubled words, common report misspellings, and unfinished template sentences are flagged with the page they sit on.
Severity you can act on
Critical, High, Medium, Low. The most serious fixes land at the top so the inspector knows where to start.
A grade everyone understands
One letter and one verdict per report. Pass, conditional, or fail, on the same scale for every inspector.
A PDF you can hand off
Export the audit and send it straight to the inspector. No screenshots, no retyping notes.
The grade
One scale for every inspector on your team.
Every report gets a letter and a verdict from the same bands, so "good enough" means the same thing on Monday and Friday.
| Grade | Score | Verdict |
|---|---|---|
| A | 90 to 100 | PassDelivery ready |
| B | 81 to 89 | PassMinor fixes recommended |
| C | 75 to 80 | ConditionalFix before delivery |
| D | 70 to 74 | FailFix immediately |
| F | 0 to 69 | FailDo not deliver |
While the scoring rules are deterministic, findings are still identified by AI, so the same report can vary by a few points between runs. The grade is a guide. Your team makes the final call.
What is GradeCharter™?
GradeCharter™ is report quality assurance software for home inspection companies. It audits a finished inspection report against your state Standards of Practice, reviews the writing, can check every photo against the narrative, and returns a letter grade with a list of fixes before the report goes to the client.
Which states does GradeCharter™ support?
All 50 states. States with their own Standards of Practice are graded on that standard. States without one are graded against InterNACHI by default, with ASHI available. Tell us your state when you join the waitlist.
Does it work with my report software?
GradeCharter™ has been tested with the major report writing tools. It works today with Spectora, Home Inspector Pro (HIP), and Horizon, and testing with ScribeWare is underway. Most other tools that export a PDF should work too. We are still building out support, and as we receive reports from more tools we add them to the tested list. Tell us your software when you join the waitlist.
How long does an audit take?
Most reports finish in a few minutes. Turning on photo review adds time on photo-heavy reports.
Will the same report always get the same score?
Not always. The scoring rules are deterministic, but findings are identified by AI, and AI is not perfect. The same report can vary by a few points between runs, which can occasionally move a report across a letter grade line. Treat the grade as a strong guide and review the findings.
Does GradeCharter™ replace my own review?
No. It gives you or your lead inspector a fast, consistent first pass so your review time goes to judgment calls instead of hunting for typos and missing items. GradeCharter™ uses AI and can make mistakes, so findings should always be reviewed.
