Our promise

iSpector never markets other companies' services to your clients

Some inspection software places third-party offers in front of the home buyers you inspect for. iSpector doesn't, on any plan.

  • No partner offers in your reports

    Your reports, portals, emails and texts never carry insurance, warranty, security, utility or moving offers from other companies.

  • Your clients are your clients

    We don't sell your clients' or agents' details, and we don't use them for our own purposes (see our privacy policy).

  • Only what you choose to offer

    Add-ons, follow-ups and campaigns are your own services, sent only when you set them up.

Two things you may see: client pages show a small "Powered by iSpector" line, and if you switch on pay over time in Settings, invoices name the payment options you chose (Affirm, Klarna or Afterpay). iSpector takes no fee on either.
