Pipeline Inspection Readiness Software for Inline Inspection Programs
Kissflow clears every inline inspection run through a documented go or no-go checklist, line cleaning, launcher and receiver prep, tool compatibility, and regulatory notification, signed off by the integrity engineer and field supervisor before the tool ever goes into the line.
Trusted by energy operators worldwide
Nobody launches an inline inspection tool on a hunch that the line is ready.
A smart pig run needs a cleaned line, a launcher and receiver rigged and pressure-tested, a tool calibrated for the pipe diameter and wall thickness, regulatory notification filed where required, and a crew scheduled around a valve lineup that took days to plan. Any one of those pieces missing, a launcher trap not pressure-tested, a notification not filed, a tool that doesn't match the line's specifications, turns a scheduled inspection into a delayed one, or worse, a stuck tool.
Kissflow runs pipeline inspection readiness as a go or no-go gate: a pre-run checklist covering line cleaning, launcher and receiver preparation, tool calibration and compatibility, and regulatory notification, a sign-off from the integrity engineer and the field supervisor before the tool goes in the line, and a readiness record that shows exactly what was confirmed and by whom.
By the time the tool launches, the record already shows the line was clean, the trap was tested, the tool matched the pipe, and the notification was filed, instead of a crew finding out mid-run that one of those steps got skipped.
Where inline inspection readiness breaks down before launch
Line cleaning isn't confirmed before the tool arrives
A cleaning pig run gets scheduled separately from the inspection tool run, with no check that the line actually came back clean.
Tool compatibility is assumed, not verified
A tool sized for the wrong wall thickness or diameter gets scheduled because nobody cross-checked it against the line's specifications.
Regulatory notification slips through
A required notification to a regulator or landowner doesn't get filed until someone remembers, sometimes after the run.
Go or no-go is a verbal call on location
The decision to launch happens on a phone call at the trap, with no record of what was actually checked.
Six modules. Every inspection run cleared through a documented readiness checklist before launch.
Configure checklist items, notification requirements, and sign-off roles to your inspection program.
Pre-run readiness checklist
Line cleaning confirmation, launcher and receiver prep, and tool compatibility are checked off against one list.
Tool calibration and compatibility check
The inspection tool's specifications are verified against the line's diameter, wall thickness, and pressure rating.
Regulatory notification tracking
Required notifications to regulators or landowners are logged with filing dates, not left to memory.
Go or no-go sign-off
The integrity engineer and field supervisor sign off before the tool is launched into the line.
Crew and valve lineup scheduling
The run is scheduled against the valve lineup and crew availability needed to execute it.
Readiness record
Every checklist item, sign-off, and notification builds a permanent record for that specific run.
From request to system of record in four steps
Initiate
A readiness check opens for a specific inline inspection run before launch.
Conduct
Line cleaning, launcher and receiver prep, and tool compatibility are confirmed item by item.
Flag
Required regulatory or landowner notifications are verified as filed, and the integrity engineer and field supervisor sign off go or no-go, holding the launch until everything clears.
Record
The tool launches against a documented readiness record tied to that specific run.
What changes when inline inspection readiness runs on Kissflow
| Process | Before Kissflow | On Kissflow |
|---|---|---|
| Line cleaning confirmation | Assumed complete because a cleaning pig ran at some point | Confirmed as a checklist item before the inspection tool launches |
| Tool compatibility | Checked by whoever remembers to check it | Verified against the line's specifications as part of the checklist |
| Regulatory notification | Filed when someone remembers | Tracked with filing dates as a required readiness item |
| Go or no-go decision | A verbal call at the trap | A documented sign-off from the integrity engineer and field supervisor |
| Crew and valve scheduling | Coordinated by phone the day before | Scheduled against the readiness record ahead of the run |
| Run history | Reconstructed from field notes if a problem comes up later | A permanent readiness record tied to that specific run |
Connects to your pipeline integrity management system or ERP for the resulting inspection data; Kissflow doesn't replace your system of record
Kissflow runs the pre-run readiness and sign-off layer. Your integrity management system or ERP stays the system of record for the inspection results and the pipeline's engineering data.

Built for how an inline inspection run actually gets cleared
One checklist, every readiness item
Line cleaning, launcher prep, tool compatibility, and notifications all live on one list, not four.
Tool compatibility checked before it's a problem in the line
The tool's specifications are verified against the pipe before launch, not discovered mid-run.
A documented go or no-go, not a phone call
The sign-off record shows who approved the run and what they confirmed.
Live in weeks

Governed from day one
Role-based access and a full audit trail on every readiness checklist and sign-off.
A record for every run, not just the exceptions
Every inspection run, not just the ones that had a problem, gets a readiness record.

Get SupportNo. Your integrity management system or ERP stays the system of record for the resulting inspection data and the pipeline's engineering information. Kissflow runs the pre-run readiness checklist and sign-off layer.
This app clears a run before the tool launches: line cleaning, tool compatibility, notifications, and sign-off. Pipeline Integrity Inspection Management System is the register of results once the run is complete.
Pipeline Pigging Schedule Management System tracks the recurring calendar of cleaning and inspection pig runs across your network and flags overdue ones. This app is the readiness gate for one specific scheduled run.
Whoever you configure, typically an integrity engineer and a field supervisor, both confirming the readiness checklist before the tool goes into the line.
Yes. Notification requirements are configured as checklist items with filing dates, so a run can't clear readiness without them logged.
The run stays at no-go until every configured readiness item is confirmed and signed off.
Configuration and AI-assisted app generation move delivery from a multi-month program to a matter of weeks.
Kissflow is certified to SOC 1, SOC 2, SOC 3, and ISO/IEC 27001, with role-based access and a full audit log on every checklist and sign-off.
