Your data never leaves your machine. Not once.
FindingsVault is a complete home-inspection report tool that runs from a single file on your own computer. No account. No cloud. No subscription. No catch.
The industry rents you your own reports. We don't.
The two biggest names in inspection software are now one cloud‑subscription company, and the real cost hides in per‑report fees and per‑seat charges that climb through your busy season. FindingsVault takes the other road entirely.
The subscription cloud
- ✕$109–159/mo base, before per‑report and per‑inspector fees
- ✕Your reports and client data live on their servers
- ✕Needs a connection — a sync round‑trip even when "offline"
- ✕Leave, and you fight to export your own archive
- ✕Prices and terms change under you after acquisitions
FindingsVault
- ✓One fair license — no subscription, no per‑report tax
- ✓Your data never leaves your machine unless you send a specific item
- ✓100% offline — works in a basement or a rural dead zone
- ✓Every report is a file you hold, readable without our app
- ✓No account to change, no billing relationship to renegotiate
Walk the house. File as you go. Hand over a clean report.
Built around the way inspectors actually move through a property — location‑first capture, photo‑first findings, and a report that assembles itself.
Capture in the field
Photograph a finding and the tool suggests the matching item from a library grounded in the ASHI Standard of Practice. You confirm and set the severity — the software never rates for you.
Pull the public record
Optional one‑tap lookup fills parcel, county, and year‑built from the government record for the property's state — sent straight to the source, never through us.
Finalize and deliver
Issue a version‑stamped report, save it as a PDF, or drop the file into your own Google Drive and share a link. Your archive, under your control.
The AI suggests. You inspect.
Other tools push AI that writes the report for you. That's a liability you sign your name to. FindingsVault's optional photo assist only ever nominates findings from the library — it never authors report text and never sets a rating.
Matcher, not author
The model points at existing, human‑written library rows. Nothing it can't point to gets written.
You hold the pen
Every suggestion is a proposal until you confirm it. The severity is always your call.
Bring your own, or ours
Use your own AI key, use our hosted vision, or turn AI off entirely. The tool is fully functional either way.
One fair price. The best for less.
No subscription. No per‑report fee. No per‑seat surprise. Pay once, own it.
- ✓The full offline report tool, one file
- ✓ASHI‑grounded findings library, always yours
- ✓Public‑record lookup & field mode
- ✓Optional AI photo assist (BYO key or hosted)
- ✓Free updates within the release · direct founder support
Over five years, the subscription tools run $6,500–9,000. FindingsVault pays for itself before your third report.
A real report, not a screenshot.
Open a finished FindingsVault report in your browser — severity ratings, photos, limitations, and all. The same file your clients receive.
Straight answers.
Do I really own my reports?
Yes. Each report is a self‑contained file on your machine. It opens in any browser, forever, with no subscription and no FindingsVault install required.
What happens if you disappear?
Nothing changes. The tool and every report you've made keep working offline. There's no server to shut down and no account to lock.
Is my client data safe?
It never leaves your device unless you deliberately send one item — a photo to AI, or an address to the public‑record service. There is no telemetry and no cloud copy.
Does it meet the standard?
The findings library and report structure are grounded in the ASHI Standard of Practice, and the tool tracks its sections. You remain the licensed professional of record.
Can I use my own AI?
Yes — bring your own key, use our hosted vision, or run with AI off. Either way it only suggests library findings; it never writes or rates.
How do I share a report?
Print to PDF, save the file into your own Google Drive or network folder, or use your device's share sheet. You choose where it goes.
Built by inspectors' people, at RPM Strong.
FindingsVault is a sister product of RPM Strong — same operators, same standard of care, the same belief that the people who do the work should own the tools and the data. Real support from the people who built it.
