Who each product is for
InspectO is a broad NDT and inspection suite from SPA InnoVision: conventional and advanced methods, offline tablet capture, a client portal with third-party inspector sign-off, asset, consumable and calibration tracking, job cost and revenue tracking, AI tools (procedure generator, PAUT calculator, smart reports) and customised Word or PDF reports with approval workflows. It is part of the SPAVault suite with LIMS and lifting-equipment products and references ISO, NABL, ASME and LEEA.
AMPS is a job and asset management platform for NDT and inspection companies, asset owners and job-driven businesses in Australia and New Zealand, built around your Word templates, Xero, your cloud storage and Power BI.
Where they overlap
Both run jobs from quote to invoice, track certificates and calibration, produce Word-based method reports, keep asset history and offer AI assistance. Both publish pricing, which is rare in this category.
Where they differ
Field capture: InspectO publishes offline tablet capture; AMPS is a responsive web app with no offline mode.
Client access: InspectO has a portal with third-party sign-off; AMPS emails reports from the job, shares files through your own cloud storage and grants temporary roles to third parties.
AI: InspectO generates procedures and calculates PAUT parameters; AMPS rewrites report text from job details and answers questions across documents.
Data location: AMPS stores documents in your own OneDrive, SharePoint or Google Drive.
Region: InspectO is India-based with a Gulf focus; AMPS is Auckland-based for Australia and New Zealand with Xero integration.
Price and trial: InspectO US$75 per user per month with no free trial; AMPS NZ$60 or NZ$50 per user per month with a free trial.
Integrations and accounting
AMPS: Xero, Microsoft OneDrive and SharePoint, Google Drive, Microsoft Word, Power BI, Mailgun, Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace SSO; MYOB on request for Enterprise. InspectO: a vendor-listed accounting integration; Xero is not named on its public pages.
Pricing and trials
AMPS: Starter NZ$60 per user per month (up to 50 users), Business NZ$50 (51 to 100 users), Enterprise on quote, all features included, free trial on request. All AMPS prices are in New Zealand dollars and exclude GST. InspectO: US$75 per user per month, no free trial (Capterra listing, September 2026).
When to choose AMPS
- You run an NDT, inspection or asset-heavy business in Australia or New Zealand and want your accounting to stay in Xero.
- Your reports are Word documents your QA system already controls and you want them generated, not redesigned.
- You want documents to live in your own OneDrive, SharePoint or Google Drive, so leaving AMPS leaves every report and file in place, and revoking single sign-on in your own IT cuts AMPS off instantly.
- You want published per-user pricing with every feature included and no add-ons.
- You want asset history with QR codes and a flag system for certificates, calibrations and due inspections.
When to choose InspectO
You need offline tablet capture and a client portal with third-party inspector sign-off.
You want AI procedure generation and PAUT calculations inside the platform.
You operate in India or the Gulf, or you want the wider SPAVault suite with LIMS and lifting-equipment modules.
NABL-oriented workflows matter to your clients.
