Binsr vs Tap Inspect 2026: Price, AI and Features Compared

Short answer: Binsr Standard is $75 per inspector per month, $15 less than Tap Inspect's $90 Unlimited plan, and it runs on iPhone, iPad, Android and the browser. Tap Inspect's Pay as You Go plan, at $7.50 a job, costs less below 10 inspections a month, and its team pricing costs the same as Binsr or less for firms of three or more. Binsr adds five AI features on Pro, seven built-in state forms and a 12,000+ comment library written by inspectors.

Tap Inspect has been sold since 2010 and is published by Tap Inspect Inc. Its site describes it as home inspection software for iPhone and iPad, with an included back office called Autopilot. Every Tap Inspect figure below comes from its own pricing page, homepage and help center, checked on November 11, 2026.

The price, with Binsr first

Binsr Standard is $75 per inspector per month. It includes report writing, booking, scheduling, agreements, Stripe payments, a lite CRM, business dashboards, real-time collaboration for multiple inspectors and client and agent dashboards. Office and admin staff are free.

Binsr Pro is the same $75 plus $4 per completed inspection. The $4 covers the AI features, because AI has a real per-use cost and Binsr prices it in openly from day one. The next section explains why.

Code FOUNDER takes 10% off for life for our first 500 customers, and the pricing page lists stacking discounts for InterNACHI members and veterans.

Tap Inspect publishes three plans:

• Pay as You Go: $7.50 per job, sold in blocks of 20 for $150.
• Unlimited: $90 per month.
• Inspection Team: "$90/mo + $45 per inspector", with the card headline reading "$45 per user". The page does not say whether the first inspector is inside the $90, so we show team costs as a range below.

Their pricing page and homepage offer your first 5 home inspections free. It does not say whether a card is needed.

Binsr and Tap Inspect side by side

Why Binsr Pro charges $4 an inspection

AI costs money every time it runs. Each voice note transcribed, each photo annotated and each comment drafted is a real charge on the day it happens, and it scales with how much work you do.

Binsr prices that in openly at $4 per completed inspection, on Pro only. A flat monthly fee that includes unlimited AI has not priced that usage in, so it is a deferred bill rather than an absorbed one. Binsr Standard has no per-inspection fee at all.

Tap Inspect's per-job fee on Pay as You Go is different. It is how they charge for the report itself, and their site does not list AI report-writing features. So Binsr Standard is the like-for-like comparison with Tap Inspect, and Pro is what you add if you want AI.

What the $4 buys on Binsr Pro

Five AI features that ship today:

• AI Voice and AI Photo Quick Add. Speak or snap a finding and get a structured comment, matched against your own library so it sounds like you.
• AI Image Annotations. Arrows, boxes and callouts proposed on the photo.
• AI Galleries. Photos grouped and sorted.
• AI Instructions. Your wording standards, applied to every AI output.
• Combine Comments with AI. Related minor findings merged into one.

Pro also adds advanced email and SMS automations, custom business reporting, inspector pay splits, and the API, webhooks and MCP server. The AI drafts from your own input and your own comment library. It does not inspect the property. See the report builder and AI.

On voice, Tap Inspect's help center says you can dictate comments with Siri on an Apple device that has a network connection. We found no AI report-writing features on their site, so ask them directly if AI matters to you.

Feature breadth, area by area

Both platforms combine a field app with a back office, which is why this comparison is closer than most. The differences are in devices, forms, the comment library and what sits around the report.

Where Tap Inspect does not publish something, we have said so rather than assumed they lack it.

Where Tap Inspect costs less

Two cases, and both are real.

Part-time inspectors. Pay as You Go is $7.50 a job. Below 10 inspections a month it costs less than Binsr Standard, and at 10 the two meet at $75. It is sold in blocks of 20 for $150, so you pay for twenty jobs up front.

Teams of three or more. Tap Inspect's Inspection Team plan is $90 a month plus $45 per inspector. Binsr is $75 per inspector. For a three-inspector firm, Tap Inspect is $180 to $225 depending on how the first inspector is counted, against $225 on Binsr Standard. At five inspectors it is $270 to $315 against $375.

Binsr answers the team gap in two ways. Office and admin staff are free on Binsr and do not count as seats. And Binsr includes things a growing firm otherwise buys separately, like inspector pay splits on Pro, pricing rules that set both the fee and the calendar block, and agent dashboards.

Where Binsr leads

Android and the browser. Binsr's Report Builder runs on iPhone, iPad, Android and in a browser. Tap Inspect's help center says an Android version is planned. If anyone on your team carries an Android phone, that settles it.

State forms. Binsr ships TREC, Texas WDI, NPMA-33, Florida 4-Point, Florida Wind Mitigation, Florida Roof and Florida WDO, each rendered as the real form. Tap Inspect's help center answers "not yet" for both TREC and Florida Wind Mitigation, in articles marked as last updated some years ago. Ask them whether that has changed.

The comment library. 12,000+ comments and templates written by two working inspectors with 60 years of combined field experience, included with every account.

Self-serve migration. On Binsr you import your templates, including their comments, from a CSV or Excel file, with an AI-proposed field mapping you check before anything is imported. Tap Inspect's help center says there is no interface to import comments directly.

AI, priced openly. Five AI features on Pro, at $4 per completed inspection.

What this costs at your volume

One inspector, monthly cost.

Binsr Standard costs $15 less than Tap Inspect Unlimited at every volume. Binsr Pro costs less than Unlimited only below four inspections a month. Above that, if you want AI, you are paying Binsr's openly priced $4 against a plan that does not publish AI features at all.

What this costs as a team

Tap Inspect's team price depends on whether the first inspector pays $45 on top of the $90. We show both readings.

Admin and office staff are free on Binsr and are not in this table. Ask Tap Inspect how they bill non-inspecting users.

Switching from Tap Inspect

Plan a weekend for the setup and a few weeks of running both.

1. Export your template and comments to a CSV or Excel file and import them into Binsr, checking the AI-proposed field mapping before anything is imported. You keep your own wording.
2. Start from Binsr's library for any section you never built out. It is included with every account.
3. Move your booking. Set your services and pricing rules, then embed Binsr's booking form on your website.
4. Keep your finished report PDFs. A completed report is a record you may need years later, whatever platform you use.

Five things to test before you commit

1. Put it on every device your team uses, including any Android phones.
2. Go somewhere with no signal. Both publish offline modes. Write findings in a crawlspace and confirm everything syncs.
3. Write one state form if you do TREC, wind mitigation or WDO work.
4. Time it door to delivery. From locking the front door to the client having the report.
5. Send the finished report to an agent you trust and ask which they would rather receive.

The Binsr verdict

Tap Inspect fits two narrow cases: a part-time inspector doing fewer than 10 jobs a month on Pay as You Go, or an all-Apple team of three or more that does not need the state forms and AI features Tap Inspect does not publish.

For a full-time solo inspector, Binsr Standard costs $15 a month less than Tap Inspect Unlimited, runs on Android as well as Apple devices, and includes seven state forms and a 12,000+ comment library. Pro adds five AI features at an openly priced $4 per completed inspection. Try Binsr on five real inspections and compare the platforms on your own jobs.
