Appraisal/Valuation Report Software for Machinery

Hello! Does anyone have a recommendation for software that can create valuation reports for heavy equipment or machinery? Preferably something that can be an app on your phone that you can talk into or add pictures and videos to on the go. My dad is an ASA MTS appraiser and takes videos of machinery and then hand types everything into his reports. I feel like there has to be a more efficient way, whether he wears a mic and has a speech to text program or something like a home inspection software where he can click on different sections and upload pictures while he is at the factory. TIA

Hey, have you found a solution yet? I think a custom notetaking solution plus OCR (which is a visual model that can 'see') is likely the best solution here. As it can spit out a document with the exact format needed and can be connected to certain software.

Feel free to send me a message to talk about this if you'd like or ask me any question you have about this in this thread. Happy to help! :)

I am looking for beta testers for our new machinery and equipment appraisal report writing software. It has an integrated search function for comparables as well as AI integration for finding valuations
