Hometrace vs BNX
BNX is free for InterNACHI members during its beta, and Erik suggests comments. Hometrace’s Agent writes the report with you: hand it photos and it drafts the findings, talk as you walk and it writes up the notes, ask what’s left and it tells you. The trial is 30 days, and it runs on web, iOS, and Android.

Why switch
What you get by moving from BNX
The Agent edits the report
Send it your photos and it drafts a finding for each one in the matching section. Dictate and it transcribes the note and suggests where it goes. Paste a client’s message and it creates the draft inspection. Ask what is unfinished and it lists the open items.
Web, iOS, and Android
Capture on iPhone or Android, review in any browser. Field capture works offline and syncs when you reconnect. Reports deliver through client and agent portals.
30-day free trial
Individual and Teams prices are on the pricing page. Send us your template, run one inspection you already completed, and compare the finished report.
Three things to ask the Agent on your trial
- “Fill out as much of my report as you can from my photos.”
- “What’s left before this report is ready?”
- “Create a draft inspection from this client request.”

No. The Agent drafts; you review. Every change it makes is listed, and you accept, edit, or dismiss each one before publishing. AI makes mistakes, and the inspector remains responsible for the report. The Agent needs an internet connection.
