From field notes to a reviewable paragraph
Fictional site records show how project inputs become draft language for an environmental professional to review.
Animated illustration of the Phase I ESA Report Builder: an observation is marked in the section 4.1 checklist, four short field entries are typed, and the Writer drafts the matching paragraph of the report with its source and review notes attached.
- 1. Project inputsFollow the observed material, location, condition, and environmental-concern conclusion entered in the checklist.
- 2. Draft languageSee those inputs assembled into a site-reconnaissance paragraph.
- 3. Professional reviewRead the source and review notes before editing and final sign-off.
Illustrative workflow using fictional site records. See the software in a live demo.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers on what the Report Writer does, what it needs, and where the environmental professional stays in charge.
Before you book a demo
Am I buying software or a completed Phase I assessment?
The Report Writer is software for environmental professionals who prepare Phase I ESA reports. It helps draft from project materials; your team remains responsible for the assessment, review, conclusions, and final sign-off. This demo is for the software workflow, not a quote for a completed property assessment.
How do I get pricing for my firm?
Request current software pricing and tell us your approximate annual Phase I report volume and the workflow you want to support. You can also discuss pricing during a live demo.
Will it fit the locations and standards my firm works with?
The Report Writer is designed around ASTM E1527-21 Phase I ESA workflows. Tell us where your projects are located and which reporting standards and templates your team uses. We will discuss those requirements during the demo so you can confirm fit before purchasing.
What will I see in the demo?
In a 30-minute walkthrough, see a Phase I ESA draft built in the app, inspect source references and data gaps, and discuss your firm's template and onboarding questions. You can view an illustrative draft excerpt first; it uses fictional site records and is not a completed assessment.
What does FlipType actually do?
FlipType is an AI-assisted system that helps environmental professionals draft Phase I ESA reports faster — while maintaining full traceability back to source data. See how it fits alongside Quire, EDR and the rest of the Phase I ESA software toolset. Not sure what to look for? Start with nine questions to ask any AI Phase I ESA report writer.
Is this just another AI tool like ChatGPT?
No. FlipType is not a general-purpose AI tool.It is specifically designed around Phase I ESA workflows, EPA datasets, and ASTM-aligned reporting — with outputs tied back to source records.
Does FlipType replace the Environmental Professional (EP)?
No. The EP remains fully responsible for review, judgment, and sign-off.FlipType accelerates drafting — it does not replace professional oversight.
How is this different from uploading reports into AI?
Uploading third-party reports into generic AI tools can introduce risk — including data loss, misinterpretation, and lack of traceability. FlipType is built to structure and interpret environmental data properly, with outputs tied back to original sources.
What inputs does FlipType use?
FlipType works with the same materials environmental professionals already use — including database outputs, site observations, and historical sources — structured in a way that supports consistent, defensible drafting.
Is FlipType ASTM E1527-21 compliant?
FlipType is designed to support ASTM E1527-21 workflows, but final compliance always depends on EP review and sign-off
How does FlipType keep the draft defensible and traceable?
FlipType structures Phase I ESA draft content so you can trace statements back to the underlying sources. Outputs are built from the same inputs your team already uses (database outputs, historical sources, site observations, etc.) and presented in a way that preserves rationale and supporting evidence for review. You still review, refine, and sign off—FlipType just accelerates the drafting. The standard we build to is written up in Defensible AI for Phase I ESAs: the traceability standard.
How much time does it actually save?
FlipType reduces report-writing hours by 80%. This figure refers to drafting and document assembly, not total Phase I assessment time. Your environmental professional remains responsible for review, interpretation, and final sign-off.
Do you offer training or implementation support?
Yes. We work with environmental firms to train teams, establish AI governance, and identify high-impact workflow improvements.
