Comparison

An iAuditor alternative for businesses that need more than inspections

Mitti, formerly SafetyCulture and before that iAuditor, is very good at checklists on a phone. OpSemble Health & Safety is a management system: audits and inspections, plus incidents, RAMS, COSHH, permits, contractors, toolbox talks and ISO 45001, for £9 per user per month.

What OpSemble gives you

Audit and inspection builder

Design your own templates with sections, question types and scoring. Conduct them on a phone with photos and signatures, and turn any finding into a tracked action.

Incidents and RIDDOR

Guided investigation, AI root-cause assist, and statutory RIDDOR deadlines tracked on a pending list.

Risk assessments, RAMS and permits

A 5×5 register, a step-by-step method statement builder with branded PDF, and permits with enforced prerequisites and QR sign-on.

COSHH, PPE and contractors

A chemical register with SDS extraction, a PPE register with expiry, and a self-service contractor portal with certificate reminders.

Toolbox talks and inductions

QR attendance or read-and-sign by link, and inductions completed before anyone arrives on site.

ISO 45001 and 14001 registers

A guided gap analysis that populates a clause-by-clause register with a readiness percentage and priority gaps.

Moving from SafetyCulture

Rebuild your key templates

Recreate the inspections you actually run in the audit builder. Most businesses find it’s a handful, not the hundreds in the library.

Import your risk assessments

Existing risk assessment PDFs import into the register.

Add sites, people and contractors

Sites carry their own QR codes and registers; contractors get a portal invite.

Run both for the trial

14 days, no card. Keep the old app until the team is scanning the new QR codes.

Is SafetyCulture the wrong tool, or just the wrong shape?

If what you need is inspections on a phone, Mitti is hard to beat: the template library is enormous, the offline app is polished, and the free tier is genuinely useful for a very small team. Nothing here will change that. The case for OpSemble starts when the inspection results need to go somewhere: into an incident, a corrective action, a contractor’s file, or a clause of ISO 45001.

SafetyCulture grew from a checklist app, and it shows in the best possible way: the inspection experience is superb. It also shows in the gaps. Risk assessments, method statements, permits, COSHH and contractor pre-qualification are all “a template you could build” rather than records that know about each other. The result, for a lot of UK businesses, is Mitti for inspections plus a spreadsheet for everything else.

OpSemble is the everything else, with inspections built in. The audit and inspection builder covers the checklists; the rest of the module covers what happens next. A finding raises an action. An incident links the RAMS and toolbox talks that were in force. A permit can’t be approved until its prerequisites are confirmed. The ISO 45001 register is fed by all of it.

It is also cheaper for a team that needs seats: £9 per user per month on top of a £29 platform fee, against a Premium list price of roughly £19 per user. For a business with a free-tier-sized team, Mitti’s free plan may still be the right answer, and we’d rather say so than pretend otherwise.

Frequently asked questions

Does OpSemble have a template library like SafetyCulture?

No. You build your own audit and inspection templates in the builder, with sections, question types and scoring. Most businesses run a handful of inspections regularly, and those take an afternoon to recreate.

Does OpSemble work offline?

OpSemble is a web app that installs to the home screen. It needs a connection to sync records, so if your sites have no signal at all, a dedicated offline inspection app may be the better fit for the inspection itself.

Can I import my risk assessments?

Yes. Existing risk assessment PDFs import into the register.

Is there a free tier?

No, there is a 14-day free trial with no card. After that, Health & Safety is £9 per user per month plus the £29 platform fee. Mitti’s free tier may suit a very small team better, and we say so above.

What does OpSemble cost compared with SafetyCulture Premium?

Around £9 per user per month plus £29/month, against a Mitti Premium list price of roughly £19 per user per month at the time of writing. For ten users that is about £119 against about £190.
