What is iAuditor — and why do contractors look for alternatives?

iAuditor is the mobile inspection app built by SafetyCulture. When SafetyCulture rebranded in 2022, iAuditor became the name of their core mobile product. The platform is used across hospitality, construction, manufacturing, healthcare, and food service for general safety audits and operational checklists.

The reason fire protection contractors search for iAuditor alternatives is straightforward: iAuditor is a blank canvas. It's highly flexible, but every inspection form has to be built by hand. For fire extinguisher inspections governed by NFPA 10, that means manually recreating checklists that already exist as regulatory standards — a time-consuming setup that has to be maintained every time the standard is revised.

What FireInspected does differently for fire inspections

NFPA 10 forms pre-built, not pre-configured

iAuditor has a template library with some fire inspection forms, but these are community-contributed templates of variable quality — not official NFPA 10 documentation. FireInspected's forms are built to NFPA 10 §7.2 (monthly visual), §7.3 (annual maintenance), and §8.3 (hydrostatic testing) requirements. You don't download a template and hope it's current — you get the correct form on day one.

Hydrostatic test and 6-year tracking

Teams may need to record manufacturer dates, internal-exam dates, hydrostatic-test dates, and service history. FireInspected provides equipment-history fields where configured; it does not determine the applicable interval, provide liability protection, or send automatic alerts.

Client management for contractors

iAuditor is designed for internal auditing — one company running inspections on its own sites. Fire protection contractors often have client accounts, multiple locations, and many individual extinguishers. FireInspected starts with customer-based equipment history and customer report workflows; scheduling is not a current product promise.

When iAuditor makes sense

If your business needs general inspection and audit capability across multiple non-fire domains — safety walks, quality audits, food safety checks, hotel room inspections — iAuditor's flexibility is worth the setup time. Many hospitality and facilities management teams use it for precisely that reason. But if fire extinguisher compliance is a primary workload, the configuration overhead doesn't pay off.

Frequently asked questions

What is iAuditor?
iAuditor is the mobile inspection app built by SafetyCulture. SafetyCulture rebranded iAuditor as their core product in 2022. The two names refer to the same platform — a generic inspection, audit, and checklist tool used across many industries.
Why switch from iAuditor to FireInspected for fire inspections?
iAuditor gives you a blank canvas — you can build any inspection form, but you have to build everything from scratch. For fire extinguisher inspections, that means configuring an NFPA 10-oriented checklist. FireInspected can record equipment dates where configured; neither this page nor the current workflow promises automatic deadline decisions or reminders.
Can I use iAuditor for hospitality fire inspections?
iAuditor is commonly used in hospitality for general safety audits. For fire-extinguisher documentation specifically, FireInspected starts with a focused, NFPA 10-oriented workflow and technician record fields. It does not replace qualified service work or determine regulatory outcomes.
Is FireInspected cheaper than iAuditor?
Starter is $49/month after a card-required 7-day trial; current competitor pricing should be checked directly before making a cost comparison.
