Home inspection software for Canadian inspectors

You are not billed in US dollars

Every AfterInspect plan is priced and charged in Canadian dollars - CA$49/month for a solo inspector, CA$39/inspector/month once there are two or more of you. What you see on the pricing page is what lands on your statement.

That is not a small thing. The major US platforms bill in USD, so a Canadian inspector pays the exchange rate plus whatever their card charges for a foreign transaction - typically another 2.5% - every single month, on a number that moves with the dollar. Budgeting for software should not require watching the exchange rate.

A comment library written around Canadian housing stock

Every account starts with hundreds of prewritten findings - narrative, recommendation and severity already filled in - that you can edit, favourite or replace entirely. They were written around the houses actually standing in this country:

• Ice damming and eave protection. Staining at the eaves on roof styles prone to it, and the limitation you write when ice and water shield can't be verified without lifting shingles.
• Knob-and-tube wiring. Including the part that matters to your client - that many insurers require replacement, not just that it's obsolete.
• Oil tanks, above and below ground. Fill and vent pipe stubs suggesting a decommissioned underground tank, and the soil-test recommendation that follows.
• Frost depth and foundation ventilation. Fieldstone and rubble foundations, adequate frost depth for the region, and winter-closure vents that should be sealed for the cold months.

You are not deleting references to crawlspace humidity in Florida before you can use the thing.

Rural properties, no signal, no problem

A lot of Canadian inspection work happens well outside reliable coverage. AfterInspect treats the device as the source of truth: photos, video, audio and findings are written to local storage first and sync when you're back online. A basement, a concession road or a cottage an hour past the last tower makes no difference to the app.

Standards and report structure

Every account starts with five selectable templates - InterNACHI, CAHPI, ASHI, Quebec's BNQ 3009-500 and BC's ASTTBC - so the report is labelled for the standard you actually work to rather than the one an American vendor assumed. You choose per inspection, not once per account.

All four share the same residential section structure and are fully editable, so you can shape them around how you inspect. Condition ratings are Inspected, Not Inspected, Not Present and Deficient, with a five-level severity scale running from Info up to Safety. Safety and Major findings are pulled into a summary page at the front of the report, ahead of the full section-by-section detail.

Your logo, your colours, and your licence number and contact details on every page. Reports go out as a branded PDF, or as a link the client opens on their phone.

Straight answers about what this isn't

AfterInspect does not calculate or file GST/HST for you, does not act as your CRM, and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or certified by CAHPI, InterNACHI, ASHI, BNQ, ASTTBC or any provincial association. The templates are named for the standard you are writing to; they are a starting structure you edit, not a certification. It writes and delivers inspection reports, and it is built to do that part well. If you need scheduling, agreements and payment collection in the same tool, one of the larger US platforms will serve you better today.
