Flow Mobile Surveying - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

Flow Mobile Surveying is a cloud-based SaaS mobile surveying platform designed for building compliance inspectors, asbestos surveyors, and related trades including HVAC, fire safety, legionella, and indoor air quality professionals. Surveyors collect on-site inspection data using iOS or Android phones or tablets via a dedicated mobile app, while office staff access a browser-based dashboard (compatible with Chrome, Firefox, and Microsoft Edge) for job scheduling, quality control, and report generation. Data syncs automatically between the mobile app and the cloud dashboard in real time, giving office teams live visibility into on-site survey progress.

Flow Mobile Surveying ships with pre-built templates covering asbestos (HSG264, HSG248, NZ Worksafe), HVAC ventilation hygiene (BESA TR19), fire safety, legionella risk assessments, and indoor air quality (BS 40102), allowing teams to begin work without building templates from scratch. Core capabilities include automatic risk scoring using the HSG264 algorithm, colour-coded asbestos risk registers with photographs, lab results upload linked to sample IDs, floorplan upload (Visio and AutoCAD formats) with on-site sketching, and PDF report generation directly from the mobile app or dashboard. Reports can be shared instantly via URL. An offline mode with automatic sync on reconnection prevents data loss in low-connectivity environments. Custom and bespoke template development is also available for teams with specialist requirements.

The platform operates on a per-mobile-surveyor licensing model with no setup cost and no minimum contract term; dashboard users (office staff) are not charged. User permission levels (Admin, Dashboard, Mobile) support multi-user team structures. Additional features include job scheduling with multi-day and time-based options, section views for filtering, grouping, and sorting inspection items, photo timestamps, quick-fill forms, CSV/Excel data export, and a client portal allowing duty holders to view live asbestos registers and download compliance documents. A companion AI-powered Asbestos Management Portal (Duty Holder) is available separately, targeting housing associations, local councils, NHS Trusts, universities, and similar organisations that need to manage asbestos registers from reports generated by any surveying software.
