Frequently Asked Questions

Have Question? We are here to help

What are remote video inspections for utilities?

Remote video inspections for utilities are real-time visual assessments conducted via live video connection between technicians and customers or field contacts. Instead of dispatching a technician to a physical location, the customer uses their smartphone camera to show meter readings, equipment conditions, or infrastructure status—while the technician guides the inspection, captures documentation, and diagnoses issues remotely. This utility inspection software dramatically reduces truck rolls and operational costs while maintaining assessment quality.

How are remote video inspections different from customer-submitted photos?

Photo submissions are passive and often incomplete—customers don't know which angles matter or what details technicians need. Remote video inspections are interactive and technician-guided, allowing real-time direction to capture specific meter displays, equipment labels, and condition indicators. Technicians can zoom, annotate, and ask questions during the live session, ensuring comprehensive visual evidence that supports accurate diagnostics and reduces the need for follow-up visits.

Yes. Blitzz is built with enterprise-grade security, including end-to-end encryption, SOC-2 compliance, and comprehensive audit trails.

The platform meets the data protection requirements of major utility providers and integrates with existing field service management systems to maintain compliance throughout the inspection workflow.

Do customers need to download an app for remote inspections?

No. Blitzz uses app-free, one-click access so customers don't need to download any software or navigate app stores. They click a secure link sent via SMS or email and connect instantly from any smartphone browser. This removes technical barriers, increases inspection completion rates, and delivers a better experience for customers who may already be frustrated by service issues.
