MarineLens is an iPhone app from NexaSphere for marine surveyors. It needs an iPhone Pro with LiDAR, organises the survey as checklists by ABYC chapter, and lets you tap each row to Pass, Advisory, Fail or N/A, with voice notes and LiDAR measurement of defects. Its maker lists it at $99 a month for Solo and $149 for Shop Pro, per iPhone.
If you're looking at MarineLens, you want the survey done on your phone. Axsail does that on any iPhone or Android, and writes each finding from what you say instead of a checklist you tap through.
Why surveyors choose Axsail
Findings in your words, written for you
A checklist marks each item pass or fail. A report needs more: where it is, what you saw or measured, what should be done and how urgently. Axsail writes that finding from one sentence of yours. "Starboard aft lower shroud chainplate, rust staining where it passes through the deck, remove and inspect." Usually you correct a word or two and confirm.
Any phone you already own
No need for a Pro model or a new phone. Axsail runs on recent iPhones and Android phones, so you and anyone you work with can use the phones you have.
A full screen to finish the report
Reviewing 60 findings and a few hundred photos on a phone screen is slow. With Axsail you review and finalise in a browser on any computer, Mac included, with your logo, particulars, photos and signature on the report.
Pay per report
Credits are used when you finalise a report, by survey type and boat length. Recording, drafts and amendments are free, and a quiet month costs nothing. See pricing.
