How it works
The same four steps, whichever document you are writing.
Learn it once on a roof report and you already know how to write a handover manual.
1.Note it on site
Area by area or section by section. Type or dictate rough notes and take photos as you go.
2.Tidy it with one tap
Enhance turns your notes into plain professional English. Nothing is saved until you accept it.
3.Generate the PDF
Your logo, colours and layout on every page, in seconds. Every version is kept.
4.Send it
The customer gets a private link to read, download and, for surveys, sign on their phone.
Included in every plan
Everything a finished document needs, and nothing you have to set up twice.
Your brand on every page
Logo, colours, fonts, cover style and a faint page background. Set once, used on every document.
Photos where they belong
Captioned, marked up with a circle or arrow, and kept on the same page as the words about them.
Grades and costs for surveys
Cat 1, 2 and 3 with the standard UK wording, indicative costs and a total. Team sets its own grades.
Certificates merged for handovers
Gas safety, Benchmark, G3 and manuals, as PDFs or photos of paper copies, in one file.
Works on any phone
No app to install. Add it to your home screen. A poor signal delays a save, it never loses one.
Private by default
Data held in the EU (Ireland). Each company is kept separate and links to documents expire.
