If your day ends with a report, Sayt is for you. Photograph a finding, measure it with the camera, pin it to the plan — and the PDF or Word document is ready before you leave. No signal, no account, no evening spent typing it all up again.

Built for the people who actually walk the site
The report
The walk is the easy part. The cost is the evening afterwards — matching photos to notes, retyping the same findings, chasing the format your client, your head office or the main contractor expects. Sayt removes that evening.
Everything you record on site is already report-shaped, so generating the document is one screen and one tap. Your name, licence number, company and logo are on it. You can send it before you get back to the car.
Six report templates, so the document matches the reader:
Balanced professional layout — the default.
Client-facing and polished: larger photos, softer typography, technical detail rows hidden.
Photo-led progress documentation with minimal text.
Leads on issues, follow-ups and before/after evidence.
Text-heavy architecture-office style, no accent bars or cards.
Numbered No. | Name | Description table with embedded photos — matches typical QA/QC and DPWH tabulation.
Sample output
Not a mockup — this is the preview screen inside the app, showing a real generated report. Page one carries your letterhead, the project details your reader needs to file it, the site conditions you recorded, and your findings numbered in order.
Photos, annotations, measurements and plan pins follow on the pages after it. Nothing here was typed twice: every line came from something you tapped on site.
Measure
Tap Measure on a finding and point the camera at what you need sized. Set the two ends and Sayt reads the distance off the camera — a ceiling height, a crack, the width of an opening — then writes it onto the finding, as shown here.
Chain several lines around an opening, a floor or a patch of damage. Close the shape and Sayt calculates the enclosed area, so "how much render needs replacing?" is answered on site rather than estimated later.
Camera measurements are digital estimates and are marked with ≈. They are accurate enough to size an opening, scope a repair or brief a trade — but they are not survey-grade. Check critical dimensions with a tape before ordering material or cutting anything.
Site plans
Import the floor plan and tap it to drop a pin where the photo was taken. The reader stops guessing which of four identical units, or which end of a corridor, the crack is in.
Pins are repositionable until you save, so getting it right takes a second. Every pinned plan carries through to the report alongside the photograph and its measurements.
Calendar
The home screen opens on a month calendar marking every day you documented something. Progress on a job stops being a feeling and becomes a record you can show a client — day one against today.
Schedule the next visit while you are still standing on site. One-off, daily, weekly, fortnightly or monthly, with a reminder before you are due.
Who it's for
Sayt is not an architect's app that other trades can borrow. You pick your role the first time you open it, and the categories, the report title and the words in the document all change to match the work you actually do and the people who actually read it.
Often the person who has to write the daily report — and the person nobody showed how. Sayt supplies the structure: log what you saw as you see it, and the document assembles itself in a format your senior will sign without sending it back.
Categories that match the pour, not a generic list: earthworks, drainage, concrete, masonry — or foundation, rebar, formwork, column, beam and slab. Measure a section with the camera and the dimension lands in the report with the photo.
The Punchlist table template gives you the numbered No. | Name | Description tabulation with photos embedded. Photograph the punchlist head office sent and Sayt reads it in — then work each item through open, in progress and verified.
Cross-trade categories in one profile: civil, structural, architectural, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, safety. The Progress template turns a photo walk into weekly documentation with barely any typing.
Health, sanitary, food safety and fire profiles write violations, not "observations", under the right document title — the register your office and the establishment expect.
Log hazards against PPE, fall protection, machine guarding, electrical safety, hazardous materials, housekeeping, signage and emergency response — with the photo attached and a required action recorded.
Layout, dimensions, finishes, doors and windows, ceilings, waterproofing and workmanship. Pin each observation to the floor plan so the client can see where it is without reading a paragraph.
Damage assessment, cause of loss, water, fire and storm damage — or roof, plumbing, HVAC, interior and exterior. The Inspection template leads on before/after evidence.
Same data, same app — different professional register:
Design & construction profiles:
Inspection & compliance profiles:
Not on the list? Pick the profile closest to your work, or Other — Sayt then takes its wording from the project type instead, so a restaurant still reads as a food safety report. You can change your profile at any time, and it only affects reports you generate afterwards.
Photograph straight into the visit. Annotate with arrows, boxes and text. A built-in level helps you shoot elevations square.
Log findings with location, category and priority, and track an issue through to verified.
Work through a reusable checklist so nothing on a repeat inspection gets missed.
Export a PDF or an editable Word document carrying your name, licence number and logo.
Photograph a punchlist your client or head office sent and Sayt reads it into checklist items or issues — no retyping. Numbered, bulleted and tabular lists are all handled, and you confirm each line before it is imported. Runs on-device. Pro.
Send a whole visit to a colleague as a single file. It merges into their projects.
No account, no server, no analytics. A basement with no signal is a normal working environment.
Everything you need to walk a site and produce a report is in the free tier — measuring, plan pins, the calendar and PDF export all work without paying. Sayt Pro lifts the project limit and adds the editable Word export that teams tend to want.
Pro is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. Nothing renews. Pricing will be announced when Sayt reaches the App Store.

TestFlight
Sayt is in open beta on TestFlight and is not yet on the App Store. No invitation, no waiting list and no email needed — just tap the link. Testing is free and you can leave at any time.
Open the link on your iPhone:
You will need Apple's free TestFlight app installed first — the link will prompt you if it isn't. Requires an iPhone running iOS 17 or later.
Beta builds are pre-release software. Test them on real work if you like — that is the most useful feedback — but keep your own copy of anything critical. Betas expire after 90 days, and Sayt Pro purchases made during the beta go through Apple's sandbox rather than being charged. See the Privacy Policy.
