Pest Control8 hrs/mo
Finish the report before you leave the job
The inspection form completed as a question flow on the phone — findings, conducive conditions, recommendations — produces the branded PDF on site, filed to the job and emailed from the kerb.
ServiceM8 Forms$0 — included
Pest Control4 hrs/mo
Record chemicals on the phone, not on paper
Product, concentration, quantity and site per job, captured in the same form flow — the licence recordkeeping that otherwise gets reconstructed before an audit.
ServiceM8 Forms$0 — included
Pest Control≈7 hrs/mo
Use the ready-made inspection forms
Ready-made pest control forms — inspection reports and compliance documents completed on site as a question flow, generating a branded PDF filed to the job. Purchased forms work on every plan, including Free.
ServiceM8$0 — includedSetup guide ↗
Electrical9 hrs/mo
Fill in the certificate before you leave the job
Certificates of compliance and safety certificates, generated from the job card on the phone before the van moves, filed against the job for the years you are required to keep them. The Form Store has state-specific electrical certificates ready-made, including the Victorian rental safety check.
ServiceM8 Forms$0 — included (Growing plan)
Electrical5 hrs/mo
Fill safety paperwork from templates
Commercial jobs will not start without the safe work method statement, and rebuilding it per site in Word is an evening gone. A templated form with per-site answers takes minutes and files itself against the job.
ServiceM8 Forms$0 — included
Electrical6 hrs/mo
Record test results against each asset
Scan the barcode, record the result, and the site's asset history builds itself — which is also the list the retest reminders above run off.
ServiceM8 Asset Management / Simpro$0 — included
Cleaning≈8 bond cleans/mo
Win bond cleans with a same-day photo report
The agent's fear is the bond dispute. A same-day photographed exit report per room, plus a written re-clean guarantee, wins the agent's next fifty vacates from the cheaper cleaner who hands over nothing.
ServiceM8 Forms$0 — included

PropertyMe$0 — includedSetup guide ↗

PropertyMe + Make.com$9/mo
Insurance Broking5 hrs/mo
Build the renewal summary from the client file
The client-facing renewal comparison — expiring versus offered terms, premium movement, what changed — assembled from policy data into your template, with the broker's advice written by the broker.
Broking system data + templates$0 extra
HVAC & Refrigeration4 hrs/mo
Keep the refrigerant log on the phone, not on paper
Gas bought, gas used, gas recovered, per job, from the tech's phone — the licence recordkeeping that otherwise happens in a shoebox before the audit.
Forms in your job software$0 extra

Send the handover pack automatically when the job ends
Warranty terms, final photos, certificate of completion, paid invoice — one generated packet to the homeowner and carrier at job close, instead of three follow-up phone calls asking for paperwork.

When not to solve this with software
Seven guides carry the same boundary, each for its own regulated document: automate the assembly, never the authorship.
Anything that drafts your certificates. — electrical guide
A certificate of electrical safety carries your licence number and your legal liability. Software should move the test results you took into the form — the moment a tool invents a reading you did not take, you have signed your name to it.
AI-written inspection findings. — pest control guide
The report is a regulated document your licence signs. Forms should move your observations into the template — the moment a tool drafts a finding you didn't make, you've certified someone else's guess.
Generated court documents without verification. — law firms guide
Lawyers in multiple jurisdictions have been sanctioned for filing AI-fabricated citations. Generation can draft; the practitioner verifies every authority, every fact, every figure before anything carries the firm's name — because the sanction, and the headline, are yours.
AI-drafted notices, minutes or by-law correspondence sent unreviewed. — strata & owners corporation guide
Meeting notices have prescribed content and timing, and minutes are the legal record of decisions that get contested at tribunals. Generate from templates and scheme data, then have the manager read every word — the document is evidence, not correspondence.
AI-generated advice documents. — insurance broking guide
Statements of advice and renewal recommendations are licensed financial advice with your authorisation on the line. Automate the data assembly and the formatting; the advice is written by the person whose licence it is.
AI-prepared returns without the agent's review. — accounting & bookkeeping guide
The lodgment carries your registration, and a generated figure you didn't verify is your liability wearing a productivity costume. Automate the collection, the filing and the chasing; the numbers that go out the door are reviewed by the human whose name is on them.
