From site visit to signed report in three steps

  1. 1

    Inspect on your phone

    Tick each check OK, Defect or N/A, for every lift, fire door or landing valve. Big buttons for gloves, readings with their limits, photos for evidence. Everything saves on the phone and syncs when the signal comes back.

  2. 2

    Defects sort themselves

    Choose a code (SD, UD, D, R, M or RC) and the due date follows. A serious defect flags the Form 12A as withheld; you confirm before you issue.

  3. 3

    Sign, issue, send

    Sign once with your finger or a photo of your signature. Issue a locked PDF with your logo and a public verify code, then email it to the owner with one tap.

Built for year two

Next year's inspection starts where this one finished

Last year on every check

Each open defect waits on its check: mark it fixed (seen on site, or owner says) or not remedied, and it keeps its original due date. Last year's readings show beside this year's, with big changes flagged.

A row for every door

Fire doors, smoke doors and landing valves each get their own answers. Last year's list comes back, and you add, rename or mark one not inspected with the reason.

Only the checks that apply

Answer a few questions about the installation (a fire pump? a tank?) and checks that don't apply drop away. The report says what was left out and why.

Your checklists, your way

Customise any certify.nz checklist: add checks, readings with limits and guidance. Published versions are kept, so past reports never change.

Built for council and auditor review

A result for each system, the compliance schedule procedures and frequencies, checks not carried out with reasons, and a Form 12A that is only issued once every check is done.

Set up in minutes

Photograph a business card, a BWOF or a compliance schedule page, and the details fill in for you to check.
