ISN is a scheduling and business management platform. FieldScribe is an AI report writing tool. They solve different problems — and many inspectors actually use both.
See the Full ComparisonISN — Inspection Support Network
ISN is a business operations platform. It handles scheduling, online booking, automated client emails, invoicing, payment collection, and inspector CRM. It does not write inspection reports — it manages the business around them.
FieldScribe
FieldScribe is an AI report writing tool. Upload site photos and speak voice notes — FieldScribe writes the full professional PDF report for you. It does not handle scheduling, booking, or client CRM.
The insight most inspectors miss: ISN and FieldScribe are not competitors — they solve different halves of the same problem. ISN manages how work comes in. FieldScribe manages how reports go out. Many high-volume inspectors use both.
