User Testimonials

When you perform work site risk assessments every day, you end up writing the same thing over and over - so I thought it would be a good idea to use it as a preventative measure. In addition, even when I was working at a different site and was doing work that I had no experience with, I was able to become aware of risks of work-related accidents that I was unaware of.

Major Construction Company

I think the fact that it can be operated on a PC or iPad in the same way as the daily KY process is suitable for use in the field, which I think is very good. With the function of registering industrial accident cases, you can learn from previous industrial accidents, as well as those that occur within the company and take countermeasures, which will be very useful for future on-site work. It is also expected to be effective in preventing KY activities from getting stuck in a rut when doing the same work every day. I also believe that digital signatures will become an essential feature in a digital society, as they eliminate the traditional hassle of printing out paper documents and getting signatures.

Major Construction Company

I choose it because I wanted to avoid complacency in workplace risk prediction activities (KY) activities by extracting danger points using AI. I also made new discoveries by using the app. I think continuous usage will allow us to avoid risk prediction activities becoming a chore.
