Inspectors who made the switch

I was paying Spectora $149/month for features I used maybe 20% of. FieldScribe does the two things I actually need — AI photo write-ups and voice notes. Paid for itself day one.

James P.

Licensed Inspector, TX

The AI voice transcription alone saves me 90 minutes per report. Nothing in Spectora touches that. And I paid once.

Linda K.

Property Inspector, FL

Spectora is great software but I couldn't justify $1,800/year when I was starting out. FieldScribe at $149 total was a no-brainer.
