A blind helper that lives in your pocket
Most installers already photograph their work — it just ends up buried in a camera roll with 8,000 other pictures. ShadeVault Pro is a blind installer tool that turns those photos into a library you can actually search on site.
What it does on a job site
- Snap and upload photos of the install, in a batch, in one go.
- Tag blind type, application and room from drop-downs — no typing on a ladder.
- Add keywords for the fabric, colour, bracket or manufacturer while it's fresh.
- Search months later by any of those to find how you solved the same problem before.
Why installers keep using it
The hard part of this trade is rarely the drilling — it's the unusual opening you saw once two years ago. An arch over a tilt-and-turn, a skylight with no clearance, a bay with an odd corner post. A searchable record of your own work is the fastest reference you will ever have, and it beats asking in a Facebook group at 7am.
Proof of work and callbacks
Photos taken at handover settle callbacks. When a customer reports damage or a missing part weeks later, a dated photo of the finished window ends the conversation in seconds. The same photos double as a portfolio when you quote the next job.
Training new hires
Step-by-step install photos are the best teaching tool in this trade. New installers can study a bracket layout, a shutter frame fit or a panel track cut before they ever touch one, and the whole crew is working from the same standard.
