HomeGauge is home inspection software for professional inspectors, combining a desktop report writer with a Companion app for field data. In the classic workflow, inspectors collect information in the app and complete reports on desktop. The report writer supports styles such as Narrative and Grid. Business tools include scheduling, online agreements, payments, online report delivery and storage, automated follow-up emails, and inspection guarantees. Cloud-delivered reports can be locked until payment is received. The forms library includes NPMA-33 and Florida Wind Mitigation forms, and the CRL/Repair Request tool lets buyers and agents build a repair list from an inspection report for an addendum. HomeGauge Payments is free to HomeGauge users and has no monthly gateway costs. Appointments can be shared with Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, or iCal. The classic desktop program runs on Windows; Mac users can use Parallels or similar programs, while Companion runs on Android and iOS. New customers get a 30-day free trial, then the listed price is $89/mo.
