The AHJ workspace your department deserves. At no cost to your jurisdiction.

Two public-facing intake paths. Both ride into your queue.

Most departments lose information at intake — a fax that didn’t come through, an email that landed in someone else’s inbox, a voicemail nobody returned. Guspora’s public intake is built so neither residents nor contractors need an account to give your department what it needs.

The whole department reading the same record.

1. 1. Premises are real records, not a spreadsheet export.

   Every occupancy in the jurisdiction is a first-class row — responsible parties, occupancy class, last-inspection date, open violations. Inspectors read the same row admins manage.

2. 2. The schedule queues itself.

   Annual cycles, complaint-driven inspections, and re-inspections all queue automatically. Findings cite the jurisdiction’s adopted NFPA edition. Photos attach to the inspection record, not a phone’s camera roll.

3. 3. Violations get a notice, an abatement clock, and a paper trail.

   A violation captured on the inspection generates a notice with the right citations, the right deadline, and the right re-inspection target. Re-inspection runs against the open items only — not the whole building again.

4. 4. Contractors submit reports without faxing them.

   A licensed inspection contractor working in the jurisdiction submits the report directly. The AHJ accepts, returns for revision, or asks for clarification. The contractor sees the status; you see the report. No email attachments lost in someone’s inbox.

5. 5. Residents register their own property.

   Community Connect surfaces functional needs and hazards before the truck rolls. The resident controls what they share. Your responders see what they need to see.

6. 6. Outreach runs from the same record.

   Annual inspection reminders, code-update bulletins, smoke-alarm program drives — segmented by occupancy class, last-inspection date, or any field on the record. No external Mailchimp account, no list export.

7. 7. Permits, NFIRS submission, and pre-plans share the spine.

   Operational, construction, and hot-work permits run on the same record. NFIRS submission rides the same incident records into the state authority — credentials and routing configured per jurisdiction. Pre-plans on the same record as the building update as inspections happen, not on a separate cycle.

The contractors fund it. The departments use it. Both ride on the same record.

On the contractor side, Guspora is a paid platform — field service, dispatch, work orders, payments, the Business OS. Trade contractors who already need a system pay for it because it pays for itself in the first quarter. On the department side, the AHJ workspace is the same record from the inspector’s point of view. We don’t need to charge departments to keep the lights on.

The result: a department gets the same quality RMS that incumbents charge $25,000 a year for, plus a contractor submission queue, plus public intake (residents and paid uploads), plus outreach — for free. The only thing the department pays for is paid extensions, and only if you want them.

The questions every department asks first.

• Is the AHJ workspace really free?

  Yes. The base AHJ workspace is free for every fire department, period — no card, no trial clock, no year-two repricing. The platform is funded by contractor subscriptions on the other side. Paid extensions exist for advanced features (multi-jurisdiction federation, advanced analytics, scoped programs) and are optional.

• How do residents register?

  A public page at /community/<your-department-slug>. No login. The form captures functional needs, hazards, pets, emergency contacts, and access notes, all consent-gated. Three data-sharing tiers let the resident control how widely the data is visible.

• What happens if we reject a paid contractor submission?

  The contractor gets a 30-day window and up to three resubmission attempts at no additional cost. After three, the submission goes terminal — no refund, no re-charge. The platform delivered the document; AHJ acceptance is between you and the contractor.

• Can we email contractors and businesses in our jurisdiction?

  Yes. The Department Outreach module is a built-in CRM + email engine — segment your contact list, schedule a campaign, send, track opens and replies. No external Mailchimp subscription needed. Use it for inspection reminders, code-update bulletins, smoke-alarm program drives, or anything else.

• Are permits and NFIRS submission production-ready?

  Yes. NFIRS submission is wired into the AHJ portal — native record schema across the standard NFIRS modules, pre-submission validation, per-jurisdiction state-authority routing, FDID and submitting-officer configured in the AHJ settings UI, and a full per-attempt audit trail. Permits are live in the AHJ portal — full CRUD, QA review workflow, and state-submission record fields.

• Does it integrate with our CAD?

  Yes. CAD inbound webhooks are wired with HMAC signature verification per integration. We require a shared secret before any production CAD writes; the demo path runs against the [DEMO] Bardstown jurisdiction (id 404) for proof-of-flow.

• Why are 46 AHJ pages "dormant" in your codebase?

  EMS, ePCR, MIH, incident command, hazmat, investigations, mutual aid, hydrants/training/pre-plans/personnel/schedule overlaps, and 23 feature subtrees in total are intentionally unwired and preserved for post-JCFIA re-engagement (target: March 2028) or as paid Compliance extensions. They are not part of the free workspace today, and we don’t market them as available.

• How do we get started?

  Register your department at /ahj/register or talk to us. We’ll set up your jurisdiction record, walk through onboarding, and import any existing premises list you have today.
