Snagging for construction companies
Snags fixed faster. Phases closed sooner.
Okuyi closes the gap between inspection and correction. Each snag reaches the person who has to fix it with a photo, its exact spot and a due date, so less time goes on chasing and every phase is ready to sign off sooner.
For site managers, project managers and directors at construction companies, and the inspectors who work with them.

The cost of getting it wrong
Construction error costs UK businesses billions every year.
Research published by the Get It Right Initiative (GIRI) puts the measured direct cost of avoidable construction error at around 5% of project value—approximately £5 billion a year across the UK sector. When indirect costs, latent defects and unrecorded process waste are included, estimates rise to £10–25 billion a year.
Where Okuyi fits
Make the route from problem found to problem fixed clear.
GIRI identifies poorly communicated information and ineffective communication between team members among the root causes of construction error. Okuyi gives site managers, inspectors and the people fixing snags one shared, traceable record of what was found, exactly where it was found, who owns the action and what happens next.

What changes
Close the gap from inspection to correction. Save time and money.
Every day a snag sits in a WhatsApp chat or an unread report is a day the phase can't close. Okuyi keeps each snag in front of the person responsible until it's fixed.
Snags fixed sooner
The person who has to fix each snag gets the photo, the exact spot and a due date, without waiting for a report to be typed up and forwarded.
Less time chasing
Everyone can see who has each snag, when it's due and what's overdue. Your site manager spends less time ringing round and more time running the site.
Phases signed off sooner
When the last snag is closed, you have a report of every snag and what was done about it, ready for your client or funder, so the next phase and its funding aren't held up.
How it works
From inspection to fixed, in one place.
Each snag stays tied to its photo and its exact spot, with the person responsible, the due date and its status attached until it's closed.
Record it on site
The inspector photographs each snag, taps where it is and says what's wrong. Okuyi types it up for them to check.
Assign it with a due date
Give each snag to the person who'll fix it, with a priority and a due date. It goes straight into their own list in Okuyi.
Track it until it's closed
See what's open, awaiting a response or overdue on every project. When a snag is fixed, it's marked ready for review and you close it.
No account required: the temporary browser workspace lets you upload a photograph, place observations and print a sample report. Trial data stays in the current browser tab.

Who it's for
For the people who need snags fixed, and the inspectors who find them.
One shared list of snags for the whole job, instead of photos in WhatsApp, notes in emails and a report that arrives days later.
Site managers
Every open snag on your site in one list: who has it, when it's due and what's overdue. Hand each one to the right person in seconds instead of forwarding photos and chasing replies.
Project managers
Follow corrections across plots, phases and sites. See which phase is ready to sign off and which snags are holding it up.
Directors and developers
A phase that closes sooner brings handover, payment and funding for the next phase forward, with a clear record of every snag behind each sign-off.
Snagging inspectors and Clerks of Works
Record each snag by voice on site and issue the report under your own logo. Invite your client's site team and they can start fixing from your findings the same day.
Focused by design: Okuyi gets snags and defects from inspection to fixed. It does not replace professional judgement, prescribed inspection forms or a full construction-management system.

FAQ
Questions site teams ask before switching.
Okuyi is designed for professional records. These answers describe the safeguards and limits built into the product.
How does Okuyi get snags fixed faster?
Snags no longer wait for someone to type up a report and forward it. The inspector records each snag on site with a photo and a voice note, a Project Lead assigns it to the person who will fix it with a due date, and it appears in that person's own list in Okuyi. When it's done, they mark it ready for review, and you can see at a glance what's open, awaiting a response or overdue.
Do our trades and subcontractors need to install anything?
No. Okuyi runs in the web browser on a phone, tablet or computer. Invite each person by email; they sign in and see the snags assigned to them. Each person counts as one user on your plan.
Can our own inspector or Clerk of Works use it with us?
Yes. Invite them to your workspace and they record snags straight into your projects, where your team assigns and closes them. If your inspector already uses Okuyi, they can invite your site team into their workspace instead.
Can I use Okuyi for new-build snagging surveys?
Yes. Create a project for each property, caption each photo with the room, pin every snag on the photo and say what is wrong. The report lists every snag with its photo, its marked position and your checked text.
Can I put my own logo on the reports?
Yes, on Solo, Team and Business. Add your logo, company name and contact details in Workspace settings and they appear at the top of every report. Reports on the Free plan carry Okuyi branding instead.
Does it work on my phone on site?
Yes. Okuyi runs in your phone's web browser, so there is nothing to install. Take or upload photos and record voice notes as you walk the property. You need mobile signal or Wi-Fi to save recordings and turn them into text.
Is there a free trial?
The Free plan is free for as long as you like, for one project at a time. Paid plans start with a free trial: your card is only charged when the trial ends, and you can cancel before then from Profile → Subscription.
How do we learn to use it?
Watch the step-by-step tutorials on our YouTube channel, then try Okuyi on one of your own projects on the Free plan. There's no demo or sales call to book.
Does Okuyi replace professional judgement?
No. It organises photographic observations and report production. The responsible professional must review transcripts, conclusions, actions and cost advice.
What happens when the internet connection drops?
The application shell remains available, and Okuyi clearly shows when the device is offline. Uploading, saving and transcription currently require a live connection; do not close an unfinished recording until it has saved.
How are payments handled?
Stripe hosts checkout and billing management. Okuyi does not collect or store full payment-card details.
Can I pay annually?
Yes. Solo, Team and Business are available monthly or annually. Annual subscriptions are charged once per year and the full annual amount is shown before Stripe Checkout.
How do I cancel a paid subscription?
A workspace owner or administrator can open Profile, go to Subscription and choose Cancel subscription. Stripe asks for confirmation. The paid plan remains available until the end of the current paid billing period, and no further renewal payment is taken.
Can I export or delete my data?
Profile settings include a structured workspace export and an account-deletion control. Owners of shared workspaces must remove teammates before deleting the owner account.
Does Okuyi use advertising trackers?
Only if you allow it. Okuyi asks before loading the Meta (Facebook) advertising pixel, which measures which ads bring visitors to the site; if you reject it, nothing from Meta is loaded. You can change your choice under Cookie settings at the bottom of the page. The pixel is limited to page visits and the sign-up and subscription steps; it never receives project content, photographs, recordings or transcript text. First-party product events are recorded without cookies to measure activation and reliability.
How does AI-assisted cost drafting work?
After transcription, a Project Lead can ask Okuyi to extract a draft work scope and identify missing information. Monetary ranges are calculated only from the workspace’s own active practice rates. The draft is never added to a report automatically and must be reviewed and applied by a Project Lead.
