How It Works

From Clock-In to Invoice

The timer starts when the inspection starts. When the walk-through ends, the invoice is already built. That is the whole idea.

Who It's For

Built for the People Who Bill for Inspections

Prevention Bureaus

Inspections happen daily. Invoices go out weeks later β€” if the paper survives the trip back.

  • Per-inspector time capture in the field
  • Fee schedules applied automatically
  • Same-day invoice, full audit trail

Contractors & Builders

A failed fire inspection costs weeks on the schedule. Find the problems before the inspector does.

  • Pre-inspection checklists by building type
  • AI plan check before submittal (CA 2025 codes)
  • Documentation that speeds re-inspection

Plan Review Consultants

Your hours are the product. Every untracked minute is unbilled revenue.

  • Time tracking per project and client
  • AI-assisted first pass on plan sets
  • Invoices generated from real recorded time
AI Plan Review

Current Codes. Human Judgment.

AI-assisted, inspector-approved

FPIL's plan review engine analyzes building plan sets against California's 2025 Title 24 codes β€” the California Fire Code, Building Code, and Residential Code β€” and returns findings with section-level citations, including Chapter 7A / R337 wildfire-exposure requirements that matter for WUI and rebuild projects.

Every AI finding is advisory. A qualified reviewer examines the results and makes the compliance decision β€” because a plan approval should always carry a human signature.

πŸ›οΈ Building & Safety Integration

Connection to municipal permit tracking so inspection results and compliance status flow to Building & Safety without re-entry.

🏠 Homeowner Follow-Through

Automated owner notifications, correction deadlines, and re-inspection scheduling until the violation is closed.

πŸ—ΊοΈ Additional State Code Libraries

Plan review coverage beyond California, prioritized by partner jurisdictions.

πŸ’³ Online Payment Collection

Pay-by-link on every invoice so agencies and consultants get paid faster.
