Dennis Boyd is a WU instructor and certified pool inspector who built PPI because no adequate tool existed for the work he was already doing. The app started as his own field solution — then other inspectors started asking for it.
The inspection tools that existed were built by software companies with no field experience. They looked fine in demos — they failed in equipment rooms with no signal, on report templates that clients couldn’t read, on checklists that didn’t match the Watershape University standard.
PPI was built to solve those problems. Every design decision reflects a real inspection scenario. The offline-first architecture came from being inside a pump house at the end of a long driveway. The report template came from realtor feedback after 50+ inspections.
The CWRI certification course extends that same practitioner-first philosophy to training — so every inspector who earns CWRI credentials learns from someone who still does the work.
