Runs in your browser with sample data. Ask the AI to investigate an incident, score a hazard on the risk matrix, or sign off a toolbox talk the way your team would from their phone.

Everything a safety manager needs — in one place
Incidents & investigations
Report from any phone in seconds. A guided Report → Classify → Investigate → Close-out workflow captures witnesses, photos, immediate actions and root cause — and an incident can't be closed until the investigation is reviewed and signed off. Link the relevant risk assessments and toolbox talks as evidence, with AI suggesting the matches from the incident description.
AI root-cause assist
Ask the built-in AI to review an incident and propose probable root causes, contributing factors and recommended actions — turning a blank investigation form into a head start.
Risk assessments
Score likelihood × severity on a 5×5 matrix, record existing and additional controls, assign residual risk, and get automatic review reminders on your cycle.
Permits to work
Hot work, confined space, working at height and more — with prerequisite checks and approvals actually enforced before work can start, covering your own people and external contractors alike.
COSHH register + AI
Chemical inventory with safety data sheets and exposure information, plus AI assistance to draft COSHH assessments and flag control measures.
PPE register
Track PPE issue by employee, inspection schedules and expiry dates, so the right equipment is always in date and accounted for.
Contractor management
Build each contractor's pre-qualification checklist from reusable templates — insurances, RAMS, certificates, induction training — then send one portal invite and watch them complete it self-service, with expiry reminders once approved.
Visitor sign-in & pre-booking
QR-code visitor sign-in and sign-out with a live on-site register — essential for fire roll-call and site security. Pre-book visitors with an emailed QR pass, and require documents to be signed or induction training completed before arrival unlocks sign-in.
Toolbox talks
Deliver briefings in person with QR attendance, or attach the document and distribute it to individuals or whole departments — each person gets a personal read-and-sign link, with who read and signed recorded permanently as investigation-grade evidence.
Observations & actions
Log near-misses and safety observations, and manage every resulting action in one place with owners, due dates and escalation.
Compliance register
Track regulatory obligations — fire, DSE, LOLER, noise, first aid and more — against reusable templates so nothing lapses.
Legal register
Browse a live legislation.gov.uk feed, add the acts and statutory instruments that apply to you to your legal register, and link each to the controls and registers that satisfy it — ready for any audit.
Your chemical inventory, with the SDS attached
Every substance on one register — hazard class, supplier, storage location and the safety data sheet itself, with review dates flagged before they lapse. AI reads an uploaded SDS into the record, so building the register is a scan, not a re-type.
Build your own audits, RAMS and permits
Not just fixed forms — a builder for the documents your site actually runs on, with a mobile app for the field.
Audit & inspection builder
Design your own audit and inspection templates — sections, question types, scoring — then conduct them on a phone with photos and signatures, and turn any finding into a tracked action.
RAMS builder
Write method statements step by step, link the risk assessments, plant and chemicals they cover, and produce a branded RAMS pack PDF to issue.
Permit templates & QR sign-on
Build permit-to-work templates for hot work, confined space and more, with prerequisite checks enforced and QR sign-on/off for your team and contractors on site.
Lone worker
Check-in sessions with timers and escalation contacts, so anyone working alone is accounted for — and someone is alerted if a check-in is missed.
Turn a blank investigation form into a head start
Good investigations take time and experience. OpSemble's AI Root Cause Assist reads the incident and drafts a structured analysis — probable root causes, contributing factors and recommended corrective actions — that a manager reviews, edits and applies.
AI also connects the dots: from the incident description it suggests which of your risk assessments and toolbox talks are relevant, so the investigation file carries the evidence of what was assessed and who was briefed. The same assistance drafts COSHH assessments, drafts a risk assessment from a plain description of the task, and reads a legacy risk assessment, RAMS pack, PDF audit form or safety data sheet into a ready-to-edit template — so moving your existing paperwork in is a scan, not a re-type. It doesn't replace your judgement; it removes the blank page and makes sure the obvious causes and controls are never missed.
A live safety score, and actions that chase themselves
A dashboard safety score tells you at a glance how the business is performing. Automation rules fire the moment something happens — an incident reported, an unsafe act observed, a permit about to expire, a chemical added — sending notifications or creating a safety action automatically. They also escalate overdue corrective actions, chase expiring contractor certificates and PPE, and remind owners before a risk-assessment review falls due.
Risk assessments and investigations pass through review-and-approval gates before they count — the same stage-gate pattern you can try on our Quality page demo — so your records are provably reviewed and signed off.
Prove who was briefed — permanently
Attach the briefing document, pick departments or individuals, and send. Each person gets a personal read-&-sign link on their phone; the sign-off status board shows exactly who received, read and signed — with typed name, date and time recorded permanently, ready for the day an investigator asks.
Visitors arrive already inducted
Pre-book a visitor and they get an email invite with a QR pass. Require site documents to be read and signed, or induction training completed, before they arrive — the QR sign-in only unlocks once everything is done, and arrival drops them straight onto the live on-site register.
Run it like a management system, not a filing cabinet
The ISO structure and the numbers that turn safety activity into something you can show a board or an auditor.
ISO 45001 register
A clause-by-clause register with per-clause status, an overall readiness percentage and a priority-gaps table — with evidence linked to the clauses it satisfies, and internal audits and objectives tracked against it.
Guided gap analysis
Work through the standard question by question — Yes, No or N/A per clause, raise an action from any gap — and the answers apply straight into the register. Run it org-wide or per site. A questionnaire, not a consultancy engagement.
Management review
Run and record management reviews with the inputs and actions in one place — the meeting an auditor always asks to see.
Analytics & heat map
Incident trends, a hazard heat map and a safety-culture score, with saved dashboards you can pin to and revisit.
Management report
A cross-module safety summary you can export to PDF for the board pack or a client’s supplier questionnaire.
See exactly how far from certification-ready you are
A readiness percentage across every assessable clause, progress by section, and a priority-gaps table that says where to focus first — run the guided gap analysis and the answers apply straight into the register, org-wide or per site.
Environment, in the same system
ISO 14001, aspects and impacts, and ESG — managed alongside safety, not in a separate spreadsheet.
ISO 14001 register
The same clause-by-clause treatment as ISO 45001: a guided Yes/No/N/A gap analysis that applies into the register, per-clause status, a readiness percentage and a priority-gaps table — so you know exactly how far from certification-ready you are.
Aspects & impacts
A register of your environmental aspects and their impacts — the record a 14001 auditor asks for first, kept where the rest of your management system lives.
ESG & carbon
An ESG & Carbon register alongside the rest of your environmental records — one place to point a client’s supplier questionnaire at.
One platform. Only the modules you need.
Health & Safety is one switch in your OpSemble tenant — turn it on alongside CRM, Projects, HR, Quality and Training. Site inductions link to the same people as HR; safety training completions flow in from the Training module.
