Inspection Credit

Home buyers receive lengthy inspection reports but struggle to identify critical issues and negotiate repairs within tight deadlines. Inspection Credit helps buyers parse reports, highlight priority items, and draft negotiation responses. Target: homebuyers navigating the inspection phase of real estate transactions.

The US housing market's post-pandemic normalization has buyers negotiating harder than they did during the 2020–2022 frenzy, and inspection contingencies are back in play in most markets, making this genuinely timely. No clear incumbent owns the buyer-side inspection workflow — Inspectify and similar tools serve inspectors and agents, not buyers parsing reports after the fact. The $2k–10k/month band is believable for a niche transactional tool, but only with a subscription or per-transaction fee structure, since buyers touch this once and churn immediately. The single biggest risk is distribution: reaching buyers at exactly the right 5-day window is nearly impossible without agent or lender partnerships, and agents have mixed incentives to hand buyers a tool that might surface more negotiation leverage.
