What it gives you back

Move the sliders. Watch the gap.

The write-up is the expensive part of a survey, a snagging list or a compliance register, and it happens after hours. This is what it costs you now, and what it costs with instructBrain.

How it works

Three steps, start to issued

  1. Step 1

    Upload photos

    Straight off the phone or the camera. HEIC and JPEG, capture time and location kept intact. Full-resolution originals go to the AI; thumbnails and display copies are handled separately.

  2. Step 2

    AI drafts findings

    Every photograph is read against the report template with structured output, confidence scoring and trade suggestions. When it is uncertain — bad light, awkward angle — it routes to Not assessed, never to a passing status.

  3. Step 3

    Review and issue

    Confirm or correct on the keyboard. Then issue a PDF with a contents page, per-trade extracts, close-out tracking where required, and a share link in the issue language.

  • 4. WelfareAwaiting

  • 6. HousekeepingAwaiting

One non-compliant check raises an action with an owner and a due date. The run locks when it is completed, and the last six weeks stay side by side.

What the AI actually does

In plain English

You photograph the site as you always have. instructBrain looks at every photo, describes what it sees in the language you'd use, decides how serious it is, and says what to do about it. It only describes conditions and hazards — never people.

When it can't tell — bad light, awkward angle — it says so rather than guessing. You review, correct anything wrong, and issue.

  • Trade attribution

    Suggested trades are suggestions, not assertions. A human confirms every assignment before anything is distributed.

  • Confidential findings

    Findings involving people are restricted to supervisors and above, and excluded from every subcontractor distribution at the database level.
