Problem
Home inspection reports are static PDFs that get filed away on closing day and never opened again. With no follow-up system tracking what's due, maintenance becomes reactive, small issues go unnoticed, and problems are only discovered after they fail—when repairs cost the most.
Solution
BENi provides a digital platform that transforms home inspection PDFs into structured, actionable maintenance plans. The service extracts every finding from any inspector's report and turns it into prioritized actions, generating a Home Health Score that tracks overall property condition across roof, HVAC, electrical, and other systems. BENi forecasts the real cost of deferring each repair, showing homeowners the financial impact of waiting, and provides reminders for routine tasks like filter replacements and seasonal maintenance. A documentation hub consolidates inspection reports, service invoices, insurance policies, and photos in one searchable location, ensuring timely follow-up throughout the entire home life cycle from inspection day to resale day.
Target Audience
Primary customers are homeowners who want to proactively manage their property's maintenance and avoid costly reactive repairs, particularly recent homebuyers who have just received an inspection report.
