The Site Safety App Built for the Front Line
Sitemate’s Site Safety App is powered by Dashpivot, and allows site teams to easily log site safety information at the job site. Storm, Sitemate’s AI agent, can fill out reports with hazard observations, safety controls, and even photos, then site supervisors can review, edit, and sign off directly on the form via e-signature.
Why Site Safety management Is Harder than It Should Be
Time-consuming manual safety checks
Workers using paper-based forms take a long time to complete safety checks across site.
Delays in getting sign-off on safety concerns
Paper-based safety reports often need to be passed around for review, which can hold up action on site.
Missing and illegible safety records
Paper-based safety forms can easily get soiled or damaged. Furthermore, paper forms are easy to lose before reaching the office.
Compliance gaps due to skipped checks
Due to the time it takes to complete paper-based safety checks, this step may be skipped, which compromises safety and compliance.
A Smarter Site Safety App
AI-assisted safety report creation
Storm can help turn user prompts into a complete safety report, pre-filled with details specific to user input.
Streamlined reporting with photo capture
Workers can log hazards, take photos of site conditions, and notify relevant personnel for follow-up, all from their mobile device.
Supervisor review before close-out
All completed safety reports are routed to supervisors for review and sign-off before being closed out.
Compliance gaps due to skipped checks
The Site Safety App uses Dashpivot’s cloud storage system where all completed reports are stored. Looking into previous records can be done with a few taps and clicks.
Understanding Site Safety Software
What is a Site Safety App?
A Site Safety App is a tool that supervisors and safety personnel use to manage the safety documentation and processes needed to keep a work site safe. This usually covers items like hazard identification, safety inductions, incident reporting, and inspections, all in one place. With a Site Safety App, teams can keep a digital record of these safety activities, as well as confirmation that the right precautions were in place throughout the project.
What does a Site Safety App help record?
- General information like project name, site location, and date
- Worker inductions and safety training records
- Hazards identified and associated control measures
- Incidents, near misses, and corrective actions taken
- Safety inspections and audit findings
- Permits and certifications required for specific tasks
- Emergency response and contact procedures
- Supporting photos and attachments
What regulations typically govern site safety requirements?
Site safety is often governed by OSHA, which sets out requirements under the General Duty Clause for employers to identify and control workplace hazards. Certain OSHA standards also apply to specific site activities, such as fall protection, scaffolding, or confined space entry, each with its own documentation requirements. In other regions, ISO 45001 sets out a similar framework, requiring organizations to manage risks as part of an ongoing safety management system. Depending on the jurisdiction, additional codes may apply, such as those covering specific high-risk activities like excavation or working at height.
-
Feed Storm the safety details
Personnel conducting the check can use the voice recording feature while they walk through the site and take photos of hazards, controls, or safety concerns, eliminating the need to manually input information.
-
Data mapping
Storm extracts insights from user input, voice notes, and photos, sorts the raw data, and uses those insights to populate the right data fields of the safety record.
-
Review of safety draft
Personnel in charge of the record should review the auto-populated fields to ensure everything is correct, and add any missing context.
-
Supervisor review and approval
Supervisors will then review the record for any identified hazards before approving the site as safe to proceed. Any identified hazards will first be flagged for corrective action before work continues.

Site Safety App with Flowsite
Flowsite automatically transfers completed site safety data from Dashpivot into tracking dashboards and reporting systems, removing the need for manual re-entry. Safety and project teams get real-time visibility of findings and corrective actions, so issues can be reviewed and closed out with minimal admin work.
Comparison: Paper Site Safety vs Digital Site Safety
Most project teams already know paper and spreadsheets aren't cutting it. Here's what changes when you move your method statements to a digital system.
Paper |
||
|---|---|---|
| Form access | Instant access to site safety forms by scanning a QR code | Requires asset identification and printing of forms |
| Data gathering | Storm auto-populates fields using photos and voice recordings | Manual data entry, which is time-consuming |
| Hazard flagging | Hazards flagged instantly, with follow-up actions assigned on the spot | Requires manual note-taking and separate follow-up |
| Escalation | Automated notifications escalate critical findings immediately to supervisors | Requires manual hand-offs |
| Storage | Records stored in the cloud, accessed by searching or filters | Requires bulky binders, cabinets, and manual searching |
| Supervisors' approval routing | Structured approval routing and notification tracking | Requires physical sign-offs, which can delay approvals |
| Audit readiness | All site safety records immediately available for auditing | Requires manual compiling |
