Why Inspectors Are Switching

Common Concerns About HomeGauge

The Spectora acquisition raised questions that many inspectors are not willing to wait to have answered.

Acquisition Uncertainty

Spectora acquired HomeGauge in April 2025. Will HomeGauge continue as a separate product? Will pricing change? Will features be merged or removed? Nobody knows for sure.

Outdated Interface

HomeGauge was built on older technology. The interface feels dated compared to modern web applications. It lacks the cloud-native, responsive design inspectors expect in 2026.

No AI Report Writing

HomeGauge never developed AI photo analysis or automated comment generation. You still manually sort every photo and type or select every comment. InspectorData automates this with AI.

  • Voice-to-text for quick field notes
  • Photo annotation tools built in
InspectorData AI auto-categorizes photos

Step 2 — AI Categorizes & Comments

Back at your desk, AI has already sorted every photo into the right category. Then AI generates a professional comment for each defect.

  • AI auto-categorizes photos by room and system
  • 8,000+ pre-written inspection comments
  • AI generates custom comments from your photos
  • Edit, customize, or use your own library
