Here's how they're using Built Reports to transform their survey business.
Grow your business without the pain and hassle of manual processes
Imagine how much better life could be with instant quotes, deposits banked before you leave the office, surveys captured in one pass and reports drafted in minutes — all in a single platform that keeps your jobs ticking like clockwork.
Enquiry & estimate tool
Turn website visitors into booked surveys with quotes that go out the same day
No more wasted time
Filter out the enquiries that were never going to book, so you spend your day on the ones that will.
Reply while you’re still top of mind
The enquiry arrives as a draft estimate with your fee band already in it, instead of waiting for someone to sit down and start from scratch.
Quote, payment & booking tool
Get the instruction confirmed, the deposit banked and the visit in the diary
The client accepts it themselves
Your quote opens as a private web page — no login, any device. Accepting it puts the job straight on your board.
Take deposits upfront
Collect a deposit or the full fee as soon as your quote is accepted — no chasing invoices before you step on site.
Delivery tool
Issue it as a link, not a 40MB attachment
Secure report links
Send a link rather than a 40MB attachment. It’s private to that client, and nothing bounces.
Nothing for the client to install
They open it in whatever browser they already have, on a phone or a laptop, and print it or save the PDF from the page.
However you work
On your own today. A team when you’re ready.
Built Reports hides what you don’t need while it’s just you – no approval steps, no permissions to set up, nothing to configure. Invite someone and the team features switch on by themselves.
Working on your own
Solo mode keeps team features out of the way and issues reports without an approval step. £29 a month for a single seat.
Growing a practice
Invite your team and roles, permissions and peer sign-off turn on. Drafts route to a named colleague for approval before anything is issued.
Sharing the finished report
The client opens it on a private link and can pass it to whoever needs it — their solicitor included. No login for anyone, nothing to forward.

Kestrel Property Consultants
From site to signed off
Your notes become the first draft
Photograph it, say it, type it or sketch it. However you record something on site it lands in one feed — and comes back as a drafted paragraph in the right section, in your practice’s own wording.
Elevated moisture readings of 480 WME were recorded to the plaster of the rear elevation at ground floor level, approximately 0.5m above skirting height. The adjacent raised border appears to bridge the damp-proof course. We recommend the external ground level is reduced and the affected plaster re-checked once dry.
Photo, voice, typed or sketched — whichever suits the moment.
Each note lands where it belongs in the template.
Tidied to the phrasing your practice already uses.
The condition rating you set on site follows the note.
Responsible AI
AI that drafts. You decide.
Every other tool promises to write your report for you. That is precisely the part a surveyor cannot hand over — so here is exactly where it does and does not get involved.
Capture it on site
Voice notes, photographs, sketches and defect tags, recorded as you walk.
It drafts, and suggests
It suggests the section a note belongs to, rewords it to your house style and picks an approved standard phrase.
Accept it line by line
Every suggestion waits for you. The note you actually recorded sits beside it.
Sign it off by name
Nothing AI-assisted can be issued until a named surveyor signs for its reliability.
The AI only ever suggests. It never writes to the report — every value lands there because you put it there.
It neither analyses your images nor writes a finding of its own. Everything traces back to a note you took.
Enabled per practice, with per-job client consent and a per-job opt-out. Nothing is sent without it.
Turn it off and a deterministic engine makes the same kind of suggestions from your own phrases.
Built to the RICS standard on the responsible use of AI in surveying practice.

Marchwood Surveying
“Taking the deposit on acceptance changed our cash flow completely. No more chasing an invoice two weeks after the report has already gone out.”
Kestrel Property Consultants
“I did a full Level 3 in a basement flat with no signal at all. Everything synced the moment I got back to the car. That on its own sold me on it.”
Ardenfield Surveyors
“Dictating as I walk has taken about two hours off every survey. I used to spend my evenings typing up notes. I don’t any more.”
Two Rivers Surveying
“Clients actually understand the traffic-light ratings. We get far fewer ‘what does this mean’ phone calls the day after a report lands.”
Halstead & Co Surveyors
“Sending a secure link instead of a 40MB attachment sounds like a small thing. It isn’t — the solicitor gets it the same day and nothing bounces.”

Frequently asked questions
Who is Built for?
Residential and commercial surveyors, whether you are a one man operation or a larger business, Built is a flexible system that adapts to your needs.
How quickly can we get started?
Instantly! Built has nothing to hide, we are so confident in our solution we provide instant access. Every new account opens with a worked example already in place — a client, an accepted estimate and a half-written Level 2 report — so you can try the report editor straight away, then clear it out in one click. We’ll set up your branding and run unlimited training whenever you need it.
Can I use my own report templates?
Yes! Built includes a range of reports out of the box, but if you prefer your own format, use Built’s advanced report builder functionality.
Does the AI write my report for me?
No, and deliberately so. It only rewords notes you captured and picks from phrases you approved — it never adds a finding of its own. Every suggestion waits for you to accept it, your original wording is always kept so you can check what you actually said, and an AI-assisted report can’t be issued until a named surveyor signs off on its reliability. That follows the RICS position on responsible use of AI. Prefer it off? It’s off by default.
What devices are supported?
Does it work offline?
Yes. Capture photos, dictation and defect notes offline on any device, and everything syncs once your connection is restored.
Who owns the client data?
You do. Your client data always belongs to you, and you can export it at any time.
What does it cost to take a payment?
Payments processed through Built carry a small fee depending on the payment method, shown on every transaction before and after it’s taken. Payments taken outside of Built are free to record — see the pricing page for the full breakdown.
What training is provided?
Unlimited training, whenever you need it. We’ll make sure your whole team is confident using Built Reports, with support available 7 days a week.
