The 8 best best fire risk assessment software tools, in detail

1

Mitti

Best for: General inspections, checklists and corrective actions

Mitti, formerly SafetyCulture and long known for its iAuditor app, is a general workplace operations platform used for fire risk assessments, routine inspections, hazard reports and corrective actions. Its free plan covers up to 10 seats and 5 active inspection templates. Premium adds unlimited active templates, advanced analytics, advanced training, permissions, integrations and single sign on.

Pricing$24 per seat per month (billed annually)
Free plan / trialYes

  • The main trade off is scope.
  • Mitti does not ship a dedicated PAS 79 fire risk assessment workflow, so a UK assessor must build or adapt a template to match PAS 79-1 or BS 9792.
  • For a US team working to NFPA checklists, or a facilities team that also runs general safety, quality and maintenance inspections in one place, that b
  • For a specialist fire consultancy that lives inside PAS 79 every day, a purpose built tool in this list may need less setup.

Pros

  • Free plan for up to 10 seats
  • large template library
  • offline mobile app with scheduling, actions and analytics

Cons

  • Per seat pricing rises fast as headcount grows, and fire risk work needs a custom template because the product is not fire specific

FireCheckr

Best for: Drafting reports from voice notes on site

FireCheckr lets the assessor talk, type quick notes and take photos while walking the building, then drafts the report in the assessor’s own template, built on PAS 79-1 and BS 9792. Each sentence cites the note or photo it came from, and nothing is issued until the assessor approves it, with peer review and an audit trail built in. The iOS and Android apps work offline.

Pros

  • Per report pricing with unlimited users

  • CRM and client portal are priced separately, and volume discounts depend on your report count

How we chose

We opened each vendor homepage or pricing page on 12 November 2026 and took the starting price from that page, and listed quote only where no price was published on the page we opened. We favoured tools with a clear fire risk assessment workflow, a real official homepage, and a published price or a clear trial. We did not claim hands on testing, and we did not use third party review scores to rank the tools. Readers should shortlist by their own method, volume and client needs.

What to check before you buy

Check which method the templates follow, PAS 79-1 for non domestic premises, BS 9792 for housing, or NFPA forms for US work, and whether the questions map to the clauses or only use the standard name. Ask how reports export, whether clients can see findings and upload evidence, and whether the audit trail records every change. Confirm the full cost, including VAT, per user or per report charges, portal add ons, and any setup or custom template fees. Test offline working in a basement or plant room, and confirm who owns the data and how it exports if you cancel.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best fire risk assessment software for a solo assessor?

AssessKit is a strong starting point for a solo assessor, with a free plan for 2 assessments a month and a Starter plan at £39 per month for 15 assessments, unlimited sites and report branding. FireCheckr also suits variable volume at £19.50 per report, and Certshor suits occasional work at £15 plus VAT for a single assessment. Choose by monthly report count, not by feature list alone.

Does fire risk assessment software replace a competent assessor?

No. The software records findings, structures the report, tracks actions and keeps an audit trail, but the competent assessor still decides the risk ratings, the significance of each finding and whether the assessment is suitable and sufficient. Every tool in this list leaves sign off with the person who signs the report, and that person remains responsible for the judgement in it.

Which tools follow PAS 79 and BS 9792?

Certshor, AssessKit, FireCheckr, Firehub, GoPAD and PocketSurvey all describe templates or workflows built around PAS 79-1 and BS 9792. Mitti and PlanRadar are broader inspection platforms, so the assessor must build or adapt a template to match the method. Always open the template list on the vendor site and check the section structure before you buy.

How much does fire risk assessment software cost per month?

Starting prices in this list run from $0 on a free plan to £39 per month for AssessKit, £75 plus VAT per user per month for PocketSurvey, £95 per assessor per month for GoPAD, $24 per seat per month billed annually for Mitti Premium, and $35 per user per month for PlanRadar Basic. Per report options are £19.50 per report for FireCheckr and £15 plus VAT for a single Certshor assessment.

Can I use fire risk assessment software offline on site?

FireCheckr, Certshor, Firehub and PlanRadar all describe offline capture, so notes and photos sync when coverage returns. AssessKit states that it needs an internet connection while you work, with no offline mode. Check offline support on the vendor page for your shortlist, and test it in a basement or plant room before you commit.

Is there a free fire risk assessment software option?

Yes. Mitti offers a free plan for up to 10 seats with 5 active inspection templates, and AssessKit offers a free plan with 2 assessments a month for 1 site. FireCheckr, GoPAD, Firehub and PlanRadar offer a free trial instead of a free plan, with trial lengths from 1 free assessment to 30 days. Certshor and PocketSurvey list no free plan.
