How Easy Switch (Template Import) works
5 steps, start to finish.
-
1
Export from your current platform
Whatever you use now, get your templates and comments out as a spreadsheet. If it will not export cleanly, email it to us and we will convert it for you.
-
2
Upload it to the AI importer
Binsr reads the file and proposes how each column maps to a template field, with a confidence score on each.
-
3
Check the mapping
Go through and make sure the columns landed where they should. The confidence scores tell you which few need a second look, and anything unmatched you assign yourself.
-
4
Preview before it is finalised
You see where every comment will sit in the template, with its comment type and defect level, before anything is created.
-
5
Keep working
Template changes sync to your inspections automatically, so you are never on an old version by accident. An inspection already under way keeps the version you started it on, and the template refresh feature brings it up to date whenever you want it.
The parts people ask about.
This is an import, not an integration
Binsr does not connect to another inspection platform and pull data live. You export a file from them and import it here, once, which is why the mapping step is AI-assisted.
Check the low-confidence columns
The mapping is a proposal. The confidence score exists so you know which handful actually need your attention.
You do not have to bring everything
Plenty of inspectors import their templates and then add comments from the 12,000 library to improve on what they arrived with.
Easy Switch (Template Import), answered
Can I bring my templates from another platform?
Yes. Export them as a spreadsheet and the AI importer maps them into Binsr, with your comment types, tags and default photos.
What if my template will not export as a spreadsheet?
Email it to team@binsr.app. Our team will convert it to a CSV and send it back, ready to upload.
How accurate is the import?
The importer proposes a mapping with a confidence score on every column, and shows you where every comment will land, before anything is finalised.
What if I would rather start fresh?
Build a template from scratch and follow the interactive guide for best practice, or download one of our prebuilt templates with over 12,000 comments behind it.
Does Binsr connect to my old software directly?
No, and no inspection platform really does. You export a file and import it, which is why the mapping step is AI-assisted.
What happens when I change a template later?
Template changes sync to your inspections automatically, so you never have to worry about an inspection running on an old version.
