The Real Problem

Sound familiar?

Every sign company has the same problem. The site survey is where jobs are won or lost - and most teams are still winging it.

Camera rolls, notebooks, and memory. That system breaks under pressure.

There's a better way. SignPad fixes all of this.

Scribbled notes on paperCritical details lost between site and office. Illegible handwriting, missing measurements, forgotten substrate types.
Photos with no contextHundreds of unnamed photos in your camera roll. Which sign was that? Which location? Which substrate?
Safety assessments forgottenRAMS, SWMS, and safety docs created after the fact - or not at all. Risks missed, compliance gaps exposed.
Return visits that kill profitForgot to check the power supply? Missed the access restrictions? That's another trip, another day, another cost.
Rework and blown marginsOne missed detail turns a profitable job into a loss. Return visits, re-fabrication, and client frustration.
Features

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

SignPad guides you through every location so nothing gets missed. From first photo to final report, everything is captured, organised, and ready for pricing.

Photo Annotations

Photo Documentation

Capture photos directly inside each survey location. Annotate with notes, drawings, arrows, measurements, and stamps. Every image stays tied to its exact sign position.

  • No more scrolling through camera rolls trying to remember what was what
  • Annotate on the spot with measurements, labels, and markers
  • All media automatically organised by survey and sign location
Substrate Recorder

Substrate & Mounting

Log substrate types including brick, concrete, glass, cladding, ACM and more. Record fixing methods, risk levels, and auto-generate quote notes - all in a single screen.

  • 20+ substrate types across interior, exterior, and vehicle environments
  • Risk level calculated automatically (Low / Medium / High)
  • Fixing recommendations and editable auto-generated quote notes
Smart Checklists

Smart Checklists

Built-in prompts ensure you capture access requirements, power availability, obstructions, height and clearance, and environmental risks. The system reminds you - you don't rely on memory.

  • Pre-built templates by sign type including channel letters, pylons, and fascia
  • Category-based progress tracking with clear visual indicators
  • Add notes and supporting photos to individual checklist items
Sign Locations

Sign Locations

Organise every sign position by floor level. Each location holds its own photos, measurements, substrate data, and checklist - so nothing gets mixed up across multi-sign projects.

  • Dedicated detail per sign position with floor-level organisation
  • Attach photos, notes, and checklist data to each location
  • Clear handoff documentation for fabrication and install teams

Generate safety documentation on site. Record hazards, access requirements, PPE needs, and risk ratings - then export as a professional RAMS, SWMS, or SSSP document.

  • Built-in hazard identification with risk matrix scoring
  • Access method recording (scissor lift, scaffolding, ladder, etc.)
  • Export-ready safety documents for compliance and client handoff
Dashboard Sync

Safety Assessments

Safety documentation, done on site.

Stop creating safety documents after the fact. SignPad lets you record hazards, access requirements, and risk assessments while you're actually on site - then export as a professional RAMS, SWMS, or SSSP document.

Hazard Identification

Record hazards on site with risk matrix scoring. Height work, electrical, traffic, confined spaces - all captured in a structured format.

Access & PPE Requirements

Document access methods (scissor lift, scaffolding, ladder), required PPE, and site-specific safety requirements for each location.

Export-Ready Documents

Generate professional RAMS, SWMS, or SSSP documents from your survey data. Ready for client sign-off and compliance records.

Power & Electrical

Record power availability, voltage requirements, cable runs, and isolator locations. Critical for illuminated signage installations.

Risk Ratings

Automatic risk scoring based on hazard severity and likelihood. Visual indicators make it easy to identify high-risk locations at a glance.

Compliance Built In

Meets requirements for NZ, AU, UK, and US safety standards. Documentation that satisfies site managers and health & safety officers.
