SurveyOS is field inspection software for marine surveyors and mechanics. It runs on a tablet, with a structured finding editor, photos attached inline and offline capture that syncs later. It produces pre-purchase, insurance and mechanic reports, and costs from $79 a month for one surveyor and 20 inspections a month.
If you're looking at SurveyOS, you want findings captured on board, not typed up at the desk. Axsail captures them without a tablet or a keyboard: you say what you see, and each finding is written for you.
Why surveyors choose Axsail
Talking is faster than tapping
A structured editor still needs you to enter each finding: pick the system, type the observation, choose the recommendation. On Axsail you say it once, the way you would into a voice recorder. "Engine room. Raw water seacock on the port engine is seized, replace before the vessel goes back in the water." The finding appears with its system, component, location, recommendation and a suggested grade.
Both hands free
In a bilge, an engine room or up the mast, a tablet needs a hand and a dry place to put it down. With Axsail the phone records in your pocket, and photos are the only time you take it out.
Gaps are caught before you leave
Axsail checks each finding for what the checklist item needs, such as a voltage, hours or a service date, and asks on your phone while you're still standing at it. The report doesn't go home with holes in it.
Pay per report, from the first one
Credits are used when you finalise a report, by survey type and boat length. Recording, drafts and amendments are free. There are no seats or monthly inspection limits to track. See pricing.
