Problem
Skilled‑trade professionals still rely on paper forms, Word templates and manual data entry to create inspection and handover reports. This process is time‑consuming, prone to errors, and often fails to meet legal documentation standards.
Solution
ProtocolHero delivers a cloud‑based, mobile‑first protocol builder that lets tradespeople generate, complete and share inspection reports directly on the job site. A modular “block” editor lets users assemble custom forms from a library of validated components, while AI‑driven image analysis automatically identifies equipment and populates relevant fields. All data are stored securely, can be signed digitally, and are instantly shareable via PDF or QR‑code links. The platform also supports offline work with automatic synchronization once connectivity is restored, ensuring continuous productivity without paper.
Target Audience
Primary users are electricians, installers and other skilled‑trade businesses that need fast, compliant inspection and handover documentation; the solution also serves contractors and service firms managing multiple field teams.
