# MoldLedger - Complete Documentation

## Overview
MoldLedger helps homeowners assess mold risk, understand inspection results, and find certified mold inspectors near them. For mold inspection professionals, MoldLedger is a mobile-first report builder that turns field data into a polished, client-ready PDF in minutes. Homeowners can start a mold case for a one-time fee, work from a guided case workspace, and optionally add the Home Protection Plan to keep their risk picture current over time.

## Problem Statement
Suspected mold leaves homeowners with two problems: they do not know how serious it is or what to do next, and independent mold inspectors are often still producing reports with generic templates instead of purpose-built tools. MoldLedger addresses both. A free risk assessment gives homeowners an instant score and next steps, a directory connects them to certified local inspectors, and a plain-English translator explains what an inspection report actually means. Inspectors get a mobile report builder that replaces Word templates with a branded, one-click PDF.

## Core Features

### Mold Risk Assessment
A free, guided quiz covering moisture issues, visible growth, musty odors, and health symptoms. Returns an instant risk score with recommended next steps, so homeowners know whether a professional inspection is warranted before spending anything.

### Certified Inspector Directory
Search mold inspectors by zip code. See certifications, ratings, response time, and pricing, and request quotes from multiple inspectors before booking.

### Mold Action Plan (Case Starter)
A $39 one-time guided case intake that produces a risk summary, next steps, and a downloadable handoff document for an inspector or remediation contractor. Optional add-on kits cover crisis situations, insurance claims, and tenant mold rights.

### Understand Your Results
Upload an inspection report or enter findings directly. MoldLedger translates the technical language into plain English: what was found, how serious it is, and what to do next.

### One-Click Report Generator (for inspectors)
Mobile-first field data capture with room-by-room findings and photo attachments. Generates a branded, client-ready PDF report in minutes, including a cover page, executive summary, findings, and standard disclaimers.

### Home Protection Plan (optional membership)
Keeps a homeowner's mold risk picture current after the initial case: quarterly seasonal risk-recheck emails, annual Mold Action Plan regeneration, and a monthly reminder to photograph and log new moisture or mold signs.

## Free Tools

### Mold Risk Checker
Eight-question assessment covering property age, humidity, water damage history, visible mold, musty odors, ventilation, occupant symptoms, and documentation status. Generates a normalized risk score (0-100) with risk level (Low, Moderate, High, Critical) and the top 3 action items specific to the user's answers.

### Property Risk Assessment
Comprehensive assessment with property details (type, year built, square footage), visible mold location mapping, moisture history (leaks, flooding, condensation, standing water, roof damage, plumbing), humidity level, and occupant symptom tracking. Generates a weighted risk score with priority action items.
