Read full description

IngressIQ is decision support for professionals who investigate and design against water ingress: waterproofers, building consultants, engineers, plumbers, roofers, and surveyors. Three tools in one: Diagnose a leak. Answer what you see on site and IngressIQ models the problem as a fault tree, rules out what the evidence excludes, and ranks the likely causes, each tied to the standard behind it, for you to confirm. Check a design. Screen a waterproofing design for its risk of failure before it is built, across balconies, internal wet areas, roofs, below-ground structures, and planters, with the drivers shown. Slope and level meter. Use your phone to measure surface falls and levels on site. Free for everyone. Every conclusion cites its standard. IngressIQ works to AS 3740, AS 4654.1 and AS 4654.2, AS/NZS 3500, AS 3600, and BS 8102 for below-ground work, all within the National Construction Code. Produce a clean, standards-backed PDF report under your own company name and logo, save your inspections, and share a read-only report by secure link or QR code. The free tier includes one inspection. Subscribe to run unlimited inspections, drop the trial watermark, and put your own branding on every report. IngressIQ is ranked decision support for a qualified professional to confirm on site. It does not provide a definitive diagnosis or replace professional judgement. Engage a licensed practitioner for diagnosis and repairs.
