From site to sent, in one pass

The same order you already work in.

Pin it

Tap the drawing where the issue is. The camera opens straight away.

Say it

Dictate the note instead of typing — gloves on, wind and all.

Check it

Work the footing, slab, steel or frame list. Pass, fail or N/A, with photo evidence.

Send it

One PDF on your letterhead. Tap a pin number, jump to the photo.

What your client gets

A report that looks like it came from the office, not a phone.

📄

Linked PDF report

Your letterhead, inspection outcome, findings, numbered recommendations and sign-off — then the marked drawing and every photo, linked to its pin.

☑️

Checklists as evidence

Footings, slab, structural steel and frame lists you can edit. Failed items lead the report, each with its photos.

📍

Photo pins on drawings

Numbered pins where the work is. Internal-only pins stay in your copy, out of the client’s.

🛰️

GPS site maps

No drawing? Photos are mapped by location on a satellite page in the report.

☁️

Backed up as you work

Jobs mirror to your own Google Drive, Dropbox or OneDrive over Wi-Fi. A lost phone doesn’t lose a job.

🏢

One company folder

The office sets up a shared folder once and sends the team a link. Everyone’s jobs land in the same place.

Questions

What does the free plan include?

Everything: pins, photos, checklists, reports and backups, for 2 jobs on the phone at a time. Archive a finished job and you can start the next. A subscription or company licence removes the limit.

How do I get unlimited jobs?

On your own: subscribe in the app (Settings → Subscription), monthly or yearly, through the App Store or Google Play. For a team: email info@datumvia.com for a company licence, invoiced yearly, and activate it on each phone from the email.

Does it work with no signal?

Yes. Drawings, photos, pins, checklists and reports all work offline. Backups upload when you’re back on Wi-Fi.

Where are my files stored?

On your phone, and in the cloud account you connect — your own Google Drive, Dropbox or OneDrive. Datumvia runs no servers of its own and never holds your job data.

Can I use my own report template?

Yes. Use the built-in engineering report, or import a Word template with {{placeholders}} and the app turns them into form fields.

Can I change the checklists?

Yes. The footing, slab, steel and frame lists are starting points — edit the items, add headings, or build your own. Existing inspections never change when a list does.

What do my staff need?

An iPhone or Android phone, and the cloud account your office already uses. The office sets up a shared folder once at datumvia.com/setup.

Is it only for engineers?

No. It suits anyone whose report is mostly photos tied to a location: building inspectors, certifiers, remedial and insurance work, dilapidation and progress reports.

Fifteen minutes on a call, and you’ll know if it fits how you work.
