For fire risk assessors

Software built around how you actually walk a building.

You walk the block, you write the report, your competent reviewer signs it off, the landlord accepts it. FRA Flow makes every step of that loop faster without compromising the assessor judgement that earns you the job. BS 9792:2025-led, evidence-linked, reviewer-ready.

No card. Two reports a month, free forever.

  • Tablet-first capture
  • BS 9792:2025 native
  • Reviewer queue built in

What changes for you

The site visit is the easy part. Everything after it is where the day disappears.

01
Tuesday morning you walk a 32-flat block. Tuesday evening you have a draft report. Most of the work between those two moments has been done by the structured evidence you captured on site.
02
Your AI-drafted narrative findings carry footnote links back to the observations that justified them. Your reviewer can verify each one in a click, not in a 90-minute reread.
03
Your photos attach to the findings they support. The link survives sync, export, review and final issue. No camera roll, no reconciling, no "which one was the lobby door" three days later.
04
Your branded report comes out per landlord client without manual reformatting. The same assessment produces the right output for each of your housing clients.

On site

How capture actually works on the tablet.

01

Walk and record

Open one tool. Walk every floor and every common area. Each observation attaches to the right BS 9792 section as you record it. No reconciling against a generic form later.

02

Photos as evidence

Tap to take a photo, attach to the observation. The link survives every step from sync to sign-off. No filename dependency, no folder discipline.

03

Risk scores in context

Score each significant finding on the building, with reasoning typed in context, while the building is in front of you. Not from notes the next morning.

04

Offline when you need it

Capture works without signal. The basement riser cupboard is fine. Sync happens when you are back in 4G or wifi. Nothing lost, nothing rebuilt from memory.

After the visit

How drafting works without rewriting from scratch.

01

Draft from your evidence

AI generates narrative findings from your tagged observations, photos, risk scores and locations. The model has structured source material, not a vague prompt.

02

Edit where judgement matters

Every paragraph is editable inline. Edit, regenerate, accept, or rewrite from scratch. Your judgement is what earns you the job; the AI accelerates the typing around it.

03

Footnote-linked sources

Every AI sentence carries a link back to its source observation. The reviewer trusts the draft because they can audit it in a click.

04

Queue for reviewer

When you are happy, queue for reviewer sign-off. The reviewer queue is structured, exception-led, and surfaces what matters first.

Defensibility

What protects you when a finding gets challenged.

Every assessor has had it happen. A landlord pushes back on a finding. An insurer asks for the supporting evidence. A leaseholder formally challenges a service charge that includes the FRA. The first question is always the same: where is the underlying evidence, and how does it tie to the report?

In a Word + photo folder workflow, the answer involves digging through emails and a camera roll, hoping the timestamps line up. In FRA Flow, every significant finding carries the photo, observation, and location that justifies it, with a content hash and timestamp on the issued report. The audit trail records who approved which version against which evidence. Defensibility under the Fire Safety Order 2005 sits with the named competent person, supported by the evidence chain the software keeps intact.

For a senior assessor, this matters operationally and reputationally. The cleaner the trail, the less time spent defending findings retroactively, and the more straightforward it is to take on housing clients whose procurement processes are getting more demanding.

Standards

What BS 9792:2025 actually means for your workflow.

BS 9792:2025 is the current British Standard for housing fire risk assessment. It replaces PAS 79-2:2020 as the recognised methodology assessors, reviewers and housing clients work to. The change is more than a rebrand: the section structure is sharper, the evidence model is explicit, and the competence framework references PAS 7:2024 directly.

For an assessor, this means the reports your clients now expect are BS 9792-shaped, not PAS 79-shaped. Software still positioned around PAS 79 templates is operating against a withdrawn reference. FRA Flow is BS 9792-shaped from the data model up: observations attach to BS 9792 sections, the report skeleton mirrors the standard, the audit trail meets the evidence model the standard expects. See the PAS 79 vs BS 9792 guide for the detail.

Plans and pricing

Priced like a report production system.

Reviewer and admin seats are free on every paid tier. Report credits are pooled across the team so one busy assessor does not run out while another has spare capacity. Annual billing saves around 17 percent. The Solo tier is sized for an independent assessor running their own programme. See full tiers, including the free tier and Enterprise, on the [pricing page](/pricing/).

How we compare

Where FRA Flow fits next to the tools you have used.

If your team uses a Word template plus a photo folder, FRA Flow keeps the simplicity and adds the audit trail, evidence linkage, and BS 9792 fit the Word approach cannot deliver consistently. The transition completes naturally over one annual review cycle.

If your team uses PocketSurvey for capture, you keep the tablet-first pattern and pick up the report-drafting and reviewer workflow that PocketSurvey leaves to you. The capture experience is similar; what comes after the visit is where FRA Flow does the work.

If your team uses Riskbase, the change is positioning. Riskbase covers many building types beyond housing and has a longer PAS 79 lineage. FRA Flow is BS 9792-shaped specifically for housing with reviewer-first sign-off as the default discipline.

FAQ

Questions buyers ask before they commit to a new workflow.

FAQ 01

Will FRA Flow speed me up on a real housing FRA?

For most assessors, the on-site capture takes about the same time as their current workflow; the structured shape replaces the paper notes and ad hoc photo capture. The post-visit drafting is significantly faster because the AI drafting generates narrative findings from your tagged observations rather than requiring you to type them from scratch. The reviewer step is faster because the queue is exception-led.

FAQ 02

Is AI in fire safety reports a liability risk?

AI in FRA Flow accelerates drafting but never signs off. Every AI-generated paragraph is editable, auditable, and traceable to the photo, observation, or risk score that produced it. The competent person signs off the report, not the AI. The audit trail records who approved which version against which evidence, which strengthens defensibility under the Fire Safety Order 2005 rather than weakening it.

FAQ 03

Does the app work offline on a flaky-signal site?

Yes. Capture is local-first. Observations, photos, and risk scores save to the device immediately and queue for sync. When you are back in 4G or wifi range, the queue uploads in the background. A basement riser cupboard or a poor-signal stairwell will not lose data. See the app page for the full workflow detail.

FAQ 04

How long does it take to learn FRA Flow?

A single competent assessor can run their next FRA in FRA Flow on day one. The capture flow follows the way a housing assessor already walks a building, so the learning curve is the platform, not a new methodology. Most assessors find their first job through FRA Flow takes about the same time as a familiar tool, and every subsequent job is faster.

FAQ 05

Where is our customer data stored?

All customer data, including database, file storage, and AI inference, runs in UK or EU regions only. Nothing leaves the European Economic Area. Full security and data-handling details are on the security page.

FAQ 06

Can a one-person operation use FRA Flow?

Yes. The Free tier is forever free with two reports per month. The Solo tier (£79/month, 5 reports/month) is sized for an independent assessor running their own programme. Neither requires a team or a workspace base fee. Full pricing on the pricing page.
