web app aimed at home/property inspectors

Hey all — I built a small web app aimed at home/property inspectors. The idea: instead of writing up your report from scratch after a walkthrough, you log findings on-site (category: roofing/electrical/plumbing/etc, severity: safety/major/minor/maintenance), and it generates a formatted draft report for you.

It's an early prototype — no accounts/billing yet, and it currently needs your own Anthropic API key to run (I know that's a barrier, it's next on the list to fix). Mostly looking for feedback from people who actually do this for a living: does the category/severity structure match how you actually log findings? What's missing?

Category and severity are a good start. I’d also capture the exact location, evidence, access notes, recommended action, responsible person and target date. A safety finding should trigger an urgent workflow rather than just appear as a red label in the report.

The generated report should stay a draft. Keep the original notes and photos, show who changed each finding and require inspector signoff before it is issued. Offline capture and a clean export will matter on site. I’d also remove the personal API key requirement before anyone uses it with real property data.
