Enzo Solution or Lumos: from questionnaire to AI-assisted voice workflow
Enzo Solution is a web-based inspection report writing app used by Quebec inspectors for several years. Its workflow is based on a questionnaire and a text library. Lumos relies on a radically different approach: voice capture, specialized AI, and the BNQ 3009-500 standard as its native structure.
In 60 seconds
Consider Lumos if
you want an AI trained on Quebec standards, a modern workflow where you describe a finding rather than fill in fields, a real-time BNQ compliance gauge, and an interactive report for your buyers.
How the report gets built
With Enzo, you fill out a questionnaire covering about thirty sections. You choose texts from a library, upload your photos, and click to generate a PDF.
With Lumos, you can work like with Enzo (post-inspection workflow), or dictate your observations and take photos during the inspection. The AI generates a structured four-part finding (identification, role, consequences, recommendation) while you continue. You don't fill out a questionnaire — you describe what you see.
| Lumos | Enzo Solution | |
|---|---|---|
| Writing method | Voice + photos + AI | Questionnaire + text library |
| Hands-free voice capture | Yes | Not announced |
| Automatically generated structured findings | Yes | Not announced |
| Photo annotations linked to finding | Native | Basic |
What changes
Enzo turns your report into a form to fill. Lumos turns your voice into a report draft.
AI in the report
With Enzo, there's no AI generation. You select texts from the library and adapt them.
With Lumos, the AI proposes a draft from your voice and photos. It's trained specifically on the BNQ 3009-500 standard, the Quebec Civil Code, building codes, and professional documentation. Each finding goes through two levels of review before your validation.
| Lumos | Enzo Solution | |
|---|---|---|
| AI-generated findings | With human validation | Not announced |
| AI specialized in BNQ + Civil Code | Yes | Not announced |
| 2-level quality review | Automated | Manual |
| AI assistant on standards | Built-in | Not announced |
| Targeted rewrite per section | Yes | Not announced |
| Using the software without any AI features | Yes, fully functional | Not applicable, Enzo announces no AI features |
What changes
you save the hour you used to spend assembling text fragments.
BNQ 3009-500 and REIBH 2027
With Enzo, BNQ coverage depends on your questionnaire configuration and the texts you choose. Compliance isn't advertised as native in the tool.
With Lumos, the standard is the structure. The editor is organized component by component, mandatory fields are built in, and the compliance gauge flags gaps in real time.
| Lumos | Enzo Solution | |
|---|---|---|
| Real-time BNQ compliance gauge | Yes | Not announced |
| Native component-based structure | Yes | Depends on configuration |
| Ready for the standard REIBH will make mandatory | Yes | Not announced |
What changes
the standard becomes an assistant watching you work, not a checklist you have to maintain.
What your buyer receives
With Enzo, you deliver a PDF by email or download link.
With Lumos, your buyer receives a secure link that opens their client portal, with no account to create: the interactive web report — section-by-section navigation, full-screen photos and videos, priority filtering — along with the signed agreement, the invoice and the documents you made available. They sign what needs signing and upload what you asked for in the same place. The PDF remains available for those who request it.
| Lumos | Enzo Solution | |
|---|---|---|
| Client portal with no account: documents, signature, uploads | One secure link per client | Not announced |
| Secure interactive web report | Yes | Not announced |
| Customizable PDF (logo, colors, font) | Complete | Configurable |
| Your brand integrated in web report | Yes | Not announced |
What changes
your report becomes an extension of your online presence, not just an attachment.
Managing your business
With Enzo, you have built-in invoicing with tax calculation and the ability to group multiple accounts for a team. The rest (AIBQ/APCHQ agreements, signatures, Google reviews, request widget) is managed outside the tool.
With Lumos, everything is in the same platform. Proposal with service agreement sent in one click, quote and agreement signed online, invoicing with automatic GST/QST calculation, embeddable widget on your website, Google review automation, multi-seat team management with AI Assistant tracking per member. And a Document Center that keeps the status and history of every document in the project, with automatic reminders when your client owes you one.
| Lumos | Enzo Solution | |
|---|---|---|
| Document Center: status and history of every document | By inspection, by status, activity feed | Not announced |
| Document requests to the client, with automatic reminders | Yes | Not announced |
| Built-in AIBQ/APCHQ agreement | Yes | Not announced |
| Invoicing + automatic GST/QST | Yes | Yes |
| Embeddable service request widget | Yes | Not announced |
| Google review automation | Yes | Not announced |
| Multi-seat team + AI Assistant tracking per member | Yes | Shared groups |
What changes
you stop juggling between Enzo and other tools for the missing pieces.
From questionnaire to voice-first: what it changes in your day
The most visible difference between Enzo and Lumos isn't in the features — it's in how your inspection takes shape.
The questionnaire model assumes you already know the questions to ask. You arrive with a form in your head or on screen and fill it as you go. It's a logic inherited from paper, transposed to digital. It works, but it forces you to think in terms of fields to fill rather than buildings to understand.
The voice-first model reverses the logic. You talk about what you see, take photos of what catches your attention, and the AI transforms it into a structured report. You stay in the mindset of an inspector who observes, not a clerk filling out a form.
What it concretely changes three things in your day: you look at your screen less, you keep your attention on the building, and you finish your draft during the inspection instead of spending the evening assembling text fragments. It's not just a better interface. It's a different way of working.

Questions inspectors ask us
Is Lumos AI risky in a legal document?
Lumos AI isn't a public LLM. It's trained specifically on the BNQ 3009-500 standard, the Quebec Civil Code, and professional documentation. Each finding goes through two levels of review, then you approve, correct, or reject before delivery. The final report remains your work, signed by you, under your responsibility.
How long to write a report with Lumos vs Enzo?
Inspectors who use Lumos from field capture report on average a 50% reduction in time spent creating their reports. The gain comes mainly from the fact that structuring happens during the inspection, not after.
Does Lumos cover all of Enzo's sections?
The base bank of 1,165 bilingual findings (710 for pre-purchase, 455 for pre-delivery, each qualified under BNQ 3009-500 and linked to its source) covers all components of a Quebec residential inspection. You can also create your own custom blocks for your specific wording.
Can I keep my clients and active cases during migration?
Yes. You can start new cases in Lumos while continuing to finalize old ones in Enzo. There's no obligation to switch everything at once.
How much does Lumos cost compared to Enzo Solution?
Enzo doesn't publish its prices. Lumos is transparent: $10 per inspection on Starter (3 free) or $110 per month on Pro. Compare what's included: Lumos integrates AIBQ/APCHQ agreements, the interactive web report, team management, and Google review automation.
