Looking for a Spectora alternative?
Spectora is one of the most widely used report writers, for good reason. AEYES works differently: it drafts a finding from every photo while you’re still on site, and you approve it between rooms.

The short version
Three differences that matter most when you switch.
Every photo, drafted
AEYES reads every photo as you take it and writes the finding for you. Spectora’s AI starts from what you type or say.
AEYESDrafts a finding from every photo, automatically
SpectoraAI writes comments from typed or spoken notes
Approve between rooms
Drafts land in a queue on your phone, already filed under the right section. Approve, edit or skip them between rooms, and the report is done before you leave.
AEYESNo comment library to build first: drafts wait in a review queue on your phone, filed by section
SpectoraFirst set up a template with comments for every defect, then pick and edit them on site
Teams pay less
The CRM and scheduler come with every plan, and each extra inspector is $59 a month. A team of three pays $30 a month less than on Spectora with Advanced.

WHAT INSPECTORS TELL US
About half the time per inspection.
Inspectors who switched tell us an inspection used to take them around 4 hours, counting the write-up in the evening. With AEYES it’s 2 to 2.5 hours, because the report is finished on site. Many now fit in one more inspection a day. For a solo inspector, the fee from a single extra inspection usually covers a whole month of AEYES.
“Before AEYES, I was using pen and paper to inspect and spending 4-5 hours each night to complete my reports. Now, with AEYES I am completing my inspections in the field.”

From an inspector who tried the others
“After years of trying different inspection platforms, AEYES is the first one that has genuinely made me feel like technology is working for me instead of creating more work. It has made me a more efficient inspector, a more productive business owner, and given me more time outside of work.”

Questions about switching
Can I bring my Spectora reports with me?
Yes. Upload one of your past reports as a PDF and AEYES builds your report template from it. You don’t need a Spectora export or a spreadsheet.
Will my clients and agents notice the switch?
Mostly in how soon the report arrives. Your sections, wording and branding come with you, because AEYES builds your template from your own report.
What happens to my agreements and payments?
AEYES has agreements, e-signatures and online payments built in. Start from an agreement in the library or bring your own, and clients sign, pay and get the report through one link.
Does AEYES work on Android?
Yes. AEYES runs on iPhone, Android and the web. The Android app is coming to Google Play soon.
How does the free trial work?
Your first inspection is free, with no card. Use it on a real job and see the finished report before you decide.
Can I keep using Spectora while I try AEYES?
Yes. Run AEYES next to Spectora on your next few inspections and switch when you’re sure.
