Our story

Built on a real construction site

Snagger started as a personal tool. The existing options were either expensive desktop software or notes apps that didn't understand a floor plan. We needed something that worked on site, produced a real document, and got out of the way on site.

The problem was simple: site inspections still ran on paper, spreadsheets, and WhatsApp photos. A defect found on the 7th floor of a shell-and-core building had to wait until you were back at a desk to log it properly. By then, you'd forgotten which column it was in.

Snagger was built to close that gap. Import your actual drawings — not generic graph paper. Pin defects where they physically are. Attach the photo you just took. Set severity. Done. Back in the office, generate the report. The client gets a document they can act on.

What started as one person's site tool is now used by architects, surveyors, main contractors and snagging inspectors. The core principle hasn't changed: the phone in your pocket should be good enough to run a professional inspection.

Who is behind Snagger

Mark Brincat — Founder of Snagger

I started doing site visits on large-scale projects. A snag list used to take me hours. On site I wrote on paper where each photo was taken, then back at the office I matched the photos to rows in Excel, one by one.

I wanted the snag list done as soon as I left the building, not at the end of the day. Snagger is the tool I built to do that: the pin goes on the drawing where the defect is, the photo goes on the pin, and the report is ready before you leave site.

Mark writes the Snagger guides from the same site experience.

What we believe

One live copy, for everyone

Everything is saved straight to the cloud, so the site team, the office and the client-facing PDF all come from the same data, live. No syncing to wait for, no two versions of a snag list.

Your data, your control

No analytics. No tracking. No selling your data. Your inspection reports stay in your account in our EU-based cloud, and you can export or delete everything at any time. We are not in the data business.

Professional output

The PDF a Snagger report produces is the same one you'd hand to a client or solicitor. Numbered pins, photo evidence, your company branding, revision tracking. Not a rough note — a professional document.

Built for speed on site

Every second on site counts. Dropping a pin, adding a photo, setting severity — three taps. We obsess over interactions that happen in a hard hat with cold hands on a scaffold.

This website, and the app behind it, are dedicated to my glorious wife Rebecca — who has listened to me talk about Snagger every single day with endless patience, and whose ideas have shaped more of it than she realises.

And to my son Jack — this is all for you.
