# HomeSurvey.ai — Full Reference > AI-powered virtual moving surveys for residential, commercial, and military relocations. Customers record a phone video or take photos — no app download required — and receive a quote-ready moving inventory within minutes. Built for moving companies, van lines, and relocation providers. ## Company Overview HomeSurvey.ai is a SaaS platform that replaces traditional in-home estimates, phone surveys, and video-call surveys with AI-driven analysis of customer-recorded videos and photos. The platform produces itemized inventories, cube-sheet estimates, carton projections, and packing plans — giving moving company estimators a complete draft they can review and finalize. **Business model**: Pay-per-survey pricing with no monthly minimums, seat licenses, or app downloads required. **Target customers**: Residential moving companies, commercial/office relocation firms, military PCS move providers, van lines, and moving brokers. - **Website**: - **Contact**: ## Solutions — Detailed Descriptions ### Residential Moves **URL**: AI virtual surveys for household relocations. The customer walks through their home recording video on their phone's native camera. The AI analyzes the footage room by room, identifying and cataloging: - Furniture (sofas, tables, beds, dressers, desks, shelving) - Electronics (TVs, monitors, gaming consoles, audio systems) - Appliances (refrigerators, washers, dryers, dishwashers, microwaves) - Garage and outdoor items (lawn equipment, grills, patio furniture, tools, sports gear) - Specialty and high-value items (chandeliers, marble tabletops, pool tables, pianos, antiques) - Nursery and kids' items (cribs, changing tables, play equipment) **Output includes**: Itemized inventory with dimensions and weight estimates, carton projections (CP for carrier-pack, PBO for packed-by-owner), cube-sheet data, special-handling flags, and a review dashboard for estimators. **Key stats**: Surveys complete in under 20 minutes. 90%+ customer completion rate. 93% average inventory accuracy. ### Commercial Moves **URL**: AI inventory for office and commercial relocations. Designed for the complexity of business moves where asset tracking, IT infrastructure, and systems furniture require specialized detection: - IT infrastructure (servers, network racks, UPS systems, PDUs, patch panels) - Systems furniture (cubicle panels, work surfaces, power whips, cable management) - Commercial AV equipment (projectors, displays, conference room systems, sound systems) - Leased equipment tracking (copiers, postage meters, water coolers — flagged for return, not relocation) - Hazmat identification (batteries, toner cartridges, fluorescent bulbs, cleaning chemicals) - Ghost and zombie asset detection (identifying fixed assets that no longer exist or are non-functional) **Key capabilities**: Three-tag system (room tag, asset tag, move label) for full asset reconciliation. Purge-vs-relocate flagging to help companies decide what moves and what gets disposed of. 15-30% of commercial fixed assets are typically ghost assets that this process uncovers. ### Military & Government Moves **URL**: JTR-compliant (Joint Travel Regulations) pro-gear detection for military PCS (Permanent Change of Station) moves. Military moves have unique requirements around professional gear weight exemptions: - Automatic M-PRO (member pro-gear) and S-PRO (spouse pro-gear) classification - OCIE/TA-50 field gear itemization (helmets, body armor, load-bearing equipment, rucksacks, pouches — each as a separate line item, not grouped) - Firearms declaration support - High-Value Item (HVI) flagging for items valued above $100/lb (night vision goggles, optics, scopes) - Flight gear, dive gear, and MOS-specific tool detection - Professional reference materials (books, manuals, technical publications) **Why individual itemization matters**: JTR requires pro-gear items to be listed individually. Grouped items (e.g., "box of military gear") forfeit the weight exemption. HomeSurvey.ai ensures each item is cataloged as a separate line item to protect the service member's weight allowance. ### Move-Day Audit **URL**: Revenue-protection tool for moving companies. On move day, a crew member does a quick 5-10 minute video walkthrough of the home. The AI compares this move-day scan against the original pre-move survey, generating a variance report that flags: - Items present on move day that were missed in the original survey - Underweight or undersized estimates - Unbilled services (extra packing, special handling, additional stops) - Items that have been removed since the original survey **Revenue impact**: The average unbilled variance per residential move is $750. Moving companies typically capture only about 60% of actual move value with traditional estimating. Companies doing 30 moves per month can see $270K+ in annual revenue leakage. **Output**: Timestamped variance report with video evidence that can be shared with the customer before loading begins — enabling transparent, documented change orders. ## Calculators ### ROI Calculator **URL**: Interactive calculator for moving company owners and sales managers to estimate the financial return from switching to AI-powered virtual surveys. Input fields include monthly lead volume, current close rate, average revenue per move, and current survey method. Outputs projected revenue gains from improved close rates, eliminated ghost surveys (no-shows), and estimator time savings. ### Move-Day Audit Calculator **URL**: Calculator that quantifies potential revenue recovery from implementing move-day audits. Inputs: monthly move volume, average revenue per move, current estimate accuracy percentage, and average variance percentage. Outputs: monthly revenue at risk, projected recovery, dispute cost reduction, and annual ROI. ## Blog Articles ### How AI Virtual Surveys Drive Sales for Moving Companies **URL**: Explains the sales impact of replacing traditional in-home estimates with AI virtual surveys.
