How Mike Switched from Spectora and Saved $600/Year

The Challenge

Mike had been using Spectora since 2023. It worked well enough for his inspection workflow, but two pain points kept growing. First, the cost — at $149/month, Spectora was his single largest business expense after insurance. Second, report writing. Even with Spectora's templates, Mike was spending 60-90 minutes per report writing narratives for each system.

“I was doing 4-5 inspections a week,” Mike says. “That's 5-7 hours a week just writing reports. I'd get home at 4pm from an inspection and sit at my desk until 6pm writing the report. My wife started calling it my 'second job.'”

The Switch

Mike heard about Verispec's AI report writing from another inspector in an online forum. He signed up for the 14-day free trial on a Saturday morning and ran his first inspection with Verispec the following Monday.

“I was skeptical about the AI, honestly. But I did my normal inspection, took my photos, added my findings, and hit the AI generate button. The narrative it wrote was better than what I'd have written manually. I edited maybe 10% of it. The whole report was done in 15 minutes.”
