AI damage detection for Property Inspect
RapidEye reads the photographs inside your Move-In, periodic and Move-Out reports, item by item, and returns a finding wherever the picture changed, including the items where the condition line did not.
How the report lifecycle worksOverview
Property Inspect is one of the few platforms that already captures evidence properly, which is exactly why reading it pays. Structured templates and a dictionary of rooms, items and conditions keep a portfolio's reports in the same shape; the mobile app captures photos, videos, voice notes, signatures and location on site and syncs when the signal comes back; a Move-Out links to its Move-In and copies the previous conditions across for comparison; findings become Actions with an owner and a due date; and the audit trail keeps every photo, edit and signature. A large agency will run thousands of these a year, each one carrying dozens of images. RapidEye is the part that opens all of them: it reads every photograph against the same item on the last report and returns a finding per issue, with both images dated and shown together.
How it works with Property Inspect
Property Inspect organises a tenancy as a lifecycle of linked reports, so the checks follow the same line rather than inventing one. Every example below is a finding written against a Property Inspect item, not a separate document.
- Inventory and Move-In. This is the baseline the deposit will eventually be argued from. RapidEye keeps the state of each item as photographed on the day, so a claim months later starts from a picture rather than a memory of one.
- The mid-tenancy periodic. Compared with the last visit to the same rooms rather than with the Move-In, which is how you catch things while they are still repairs: damp spreading behind a wardrobe, a window catch that has stopped closing, a smoke alarm with its cover off.
- Move-Out. The comparison an adjudicator wants, done on every item that has a previous photograph, not only the ones the inspector chose to retake. Say the kitchen worktop came back marked as unchanged from Move-In; if the two photographs disagree, that is the finding.
- Actions and the work behind them. An Action closes when someone says it is done. The photograph on the next visit is the check on that, and RapidEye raises it as a finding when a closed Action's item still looks the way it did.
- Consistency across the team. Different inspectors cover a room differently. Reading every report shows which rooms and items keep coming back without a usable photo, and which findings only ever appear when one person is on the job.
A finding names the property, the report, the room, the item, the kind of problem, how serious it looks, the two photographs with their dates, and a suggested next step. It lands in the RapidEye dashboard, and in your team's inbox if you want it there. What happens next is yours: an Action, a deduction, a note to the landlord. Photographs are the common case and not the limit; video walkthroughs, 360 captures and 3D scans of a refurbished unit are things we set up with you.
How to connect Property Inspect to RapidEye
- The report types you run. A Property Inspect account with the report types your team actually uses. RapidEye follows your own lifecycle, from Inventory or Move-In through periodics to Move-Out, and your templates and dictionary stay as they are.
- The photos you already capture. Nothing changes in the field. Inspectors keep capturing photos, notes, voice and signatures in the Property Inspect app, online or off, and RapidEye reads those images once the inspection syncs.
- Add RapidEye as a user. In Property Inspect, go to the Team tab and click Add New User. The Connect button above walks through it.
How a Move-Out is compared with its Move-In
Checked against Property Inspect's help centre and product pages, September 2026.
Property Inspect, a trading name of Radweb Ltd, sells inspection and reporting software to residential, multi-family, commercial, housing and hospitality teams, and says it is used by more than two hundred thousand users across over fifty countries. According to Property Inspect's help centre documentation (propertyinspect.com), a Move-Out is not a fresh report: you create it against the property, the system links it to the previous Move-In or Inventory automatically, and the report opens with the original condition already sitting beside each room and item. What the inspector does next is the part worth understanding, because it decides what the finished report can prove.

What one report already carries
A Property Inspect report is unusually well structured for this, which is the reason the integration is worth building. Its own published residential Move-Out sample runs to fifty-seven pages across seventeen inspectable areas, and everything in it is a field rather than a paragraph.
- Rooms, items and conditionsDrawn from the account dictionary, so a sofa is a sofa on every report in the portfolio and conditions come off one list.
- Photos tied to an elementCaptioned and location-stamped against the specific item and finding, rather than dumped at the end of a section.
- Condition ratingsRecorded per element against a defined rubric, which is a judgement made on site in a few seconds.
- ActionsAssignable work with an owner, a deadline and the original inspection evidence attached.
- Signatures and audit trailTimestamped, with the full lifecycle for a tenancy exportable from the property record.
Property Inspect already compares photos. What does reading them add?
Both things are true and they do different jobs. Property Inspect's comparison feature puts the previous photograph on the item, in the inspector's hand, at the moment they are standing in the room, which is the right place for it; InspectAI, its assistant, then drafts the condition wording from the photo just taken and leaves the inspector to approve it. Both work on the visit in front of them, and both end at a person's judgement in the doorway. RapidEye works on the pair: the same item, this report and the last, read as images rather than as words, on every item in every report whether or not the inspector had time to look. That is the difference between evidence you have collected and evidence you have actually used, and on a portfolio of a few hundred tenancies it is where the missed deduction and the repair caught early both live.
Property Inspect integration FAQ
Does RapidEye integrate with Property Inspect?
Yes. RapidEye reads the photos captured in your Property Inspect reports along with the property, the room, the item, the report type and the timestamp, and returns a finding per issue with the earlier image of the same item beside the new one. Your templates, dictionary, conditions, Actions, signatures and audit trail are untouched.
Property Inspect already shows Move-In photos next to Move-Out photos. What does RapidEye add?
Property Inspect gives the inspector the previous photo to look at, on the item, in the app. It is a good workflow and RapidEye does not replace it. What RapidEye adds is the looking: it reads both images for every item that has a pair and says what is different, including the items where the inspector did not retake the photo, did not change the condition line, or was never on site.
Do inspectors need a second app?
No. They keep the Property Inspect app, the same templates and the same offline workflow, including work captured with no signal. RapidEye reads the photos once the inspection is synced.
Does it work on periodic and compliance inspections too?
Yes. Any report type with photographs in it can be read: mid-tenancy periodics, block and building rounds, housekeeping checks, void inspections. A periodic is compared against the last visit to the same rooms rather than against a Move-In.
Can it tell me which of my inspectors shoot thin reports?
Yes. Because every report goes through the same read, RapidEye can show which rooms and items came back with no usable photo, and which findings only ever appear when one particular inspector is on the job. That is a coaching list rather than a scoreboard.
Does RapidEye change anything inside Property Inspect?
No. Property Inspect stays the record for compliance, and its audit trail stays exactly as its own logging made it. RapidEye reads and reports, and your team decides whether a finding becomes an Action, a deduction or a note to the landlord.
