EVERY FEATURE
YOU ACTUALLY NEED

Built by a working CFI. Not a software team guessing what investigators need.

Electrical Panel Documentation
Interactive breaker grid with up to 42 slots. Tap to cycle On/Off/Tripped/Unknown. Double-pole linking. Tripped breakers highlight red automatically.
🌤
Auto Weather Pull
Enter the loss address and date. DocuFire pulls historical weather conditions automatically — temperature, humidity, wind, precipitation, and more.
✍️
Apple Pencil Signatures
Joint scene exam sign-in sheets with live Apple Pencil signature capture. Business card camera built in. Exports as a formatted PDF sign-in sheet.
🔗
Chain of Custody
Full evidence log with container type, lab submission tracking, transfer history, storage conditions, and signature blocks for released/received by.
🤖
AI Analysis — Optional
Off by default. When enabled, connects directly to your own AI provider — never to DocuFire servers. PII is automatically excluded from all AI requests.
📄
Selective PDF Export
Choose exactly which sections go into each PDF. Send just the sign-in sheet to the adjuster. Send the full report to the attorney. One tap.
✏️
Vehicle & Vessel Diagrams
Built-in reference diagrams for vehicles and vessels. Annotate directly with Apple Pencil to mark area of origin, fire spread, and damage zones.
☁️
Automatic iCloud Sync
Case data syncs automatically across all your Apple devices via your own iCloud account. No data goes to DocuFire servers — ever.
🎙️
Voice Notes
Every section has a built-in microphone. Dictate observations hands-free while you work the scene. No stopping to type — just talk and keep moving.
📚
Built-In Field Reference
NFPA 921 (2024) burn pattern guides, ignition source references, fuel load classifications, and more — built directly into the app. No internet required.
🚗
NHTSA & USCG Recall Lookup
Live NHTSA recall lookup by VIN and USCG recall database access by HIN pulled directly from federal databases. No account required.
🔒
Your Data Stays Yours
All case data is stored locally on your iPad and syncs privately through your own iCloud account. DocuFire LLC never sees your case data.
"BUILT BY AN INVESTIGATOR WHO GOT TIRED OF CLIPBOARDS — AND MAKING SURE NOTHING GOT MISSED."

DocuFire started as a frustration. There are no dedicated native iPad or Mac apps for fire investigation documentation. The one or two tools that exist are web-based — not built for the field, not built for gloves, not built for how investigations actually happen.

DocuFire is built by a CFI, for fire investigators at every level — CFIs, CFEIs, fire marshals, and anyone who documents origin and cause for a living. Every field, every workflow, and every tap target is designed around real investigative work.

Structure, vehicle, and vessel investigation documentation is fully supported. Android and PC support on the roadmap.
