Get near-misses reported while they’re still fresh.

Operators report a near-miss or unsafe condition from the line by voice, photo or text, in their own language. Shopfloor AI ranks the severity, routes the follow-up and gives your plant one live view of safety.

The problem

Why most near-misses never reach a report

Every plant knows near-misses are early warnings. Few hear about more than a fraction of them, because reporting gets in the way of the work.

Reporting takes too long

A paper form or a desktop system at the end of the shift loses to the next line stop. By then the details are gone, or the report never happens.

Nothing visibly happens

When a report disappears into a binder, people stop making them. Reporting only grows when operators see their reports lead to action.

The pattern stays hidden

The same blocked walkway, mentioned on three different shifts, is three separate conversations. Nobody connects them until someone gets hurt.

How it works

From the line to the safety briefing

  1. Report it from the line

    Tap capture and speak, take a photo or type a line. There’s no form to fill in, and no signal needed: the report waits on the phone and uploads when the connection is back. Scan an equipment QR code to attach the asset.

    The Shopfloor AI home screen for Line 3, Filling, with the capture menu open: photo, scan, voice or text, over the shift's due checks and latest events.

  2. AI files it and ranks the risk

    Shopfloor AI files the report under Safety, writes a one-line summary in your site’s language and ranks it high, medium or low. A safety report is never left unranked, and when in doubt it takes the higher rank. Supervisors can correct it, and the AI’s first read is kept.

    The operator's home screen for Line 3, Filling: two checks due now, then the day shift's logged events — a conveyor jam not yet reviewed, a quality issue flagged for handover and a safety report with a photo.

  3. The plant sees it and acts

    The safety briefing puts high-severity details first, then the actions still owed and every report behind them, across the last 7, 30 or 90 days. Raise an action straight from a report, with an owner and a due shift.

    The safety briefing for the last 30 days: four open actions and three high-severity details, a red floor read saying high severity is present, an action queue of what needs review, and the start of the evidence log, led by glass fragments found on the Line 3 conveyor.

What you get

Built for how safety actually gets reported on a shift

Voice, photo or text, even offline

Operators report the way that suits the moment. Photos of a safety board are read and turned into separate reports too.

14 languages

Operators speak or type in their own language; summaries arrive in your site’s language, ready for the safety team.

Severity on every report

High, medium or low using clear guidance, from injuries and immediate hazards down to housekeeping observations.

Follow-up that escalates

Every action has an owner and a due shift. If nobody picks it up, it climbs from supervisor to site manager on timings you set, by email and push notification.

Fixes that stick

Close an action with a remark and a proof photo, then make it stick: add a routine check, raise a toolbox talk or update the SOP.

Repeat hazards surface

Similar reports on the same line and equipment are grouped over the last 30 days, so a recurring hazard shows up as one pattern, not scattered notes.

Questions

Near-miss reporting, answered

Other use cases run through the same app. See all use cases.

What counts as a near-miss?

A near-miss is an unplanned event that could have hurt someone or damaged equipment but didn’t: a pallet that slipped, a guard left open, a spill on a walkway. Shopfloor AI files these under Safety together with unsafe conditions, spills, hazards and PPE issues, and ranks each one high, medium or low.

Does it work where there’s no Wi-Fi?

Yes. Voice, photo and text reports are saved on the phone and upload automatically when the connection comes back, so operators can keep reporting from anywhere on the floor.

Can operators report in their own language?

Yes. The app and reports are available in 14 languages, and Shopfloor AI writes each summary in your site’s language, whatever language the operator spoke or typed in.

Who sees a near-miss report, and are reports anonymous?

Reports aren’t anonymous: each one carries the reporter’s name, so the supervisor can ask a follow-up question and tell them what was done. Supervisors and the plant team see them in their shift and safety reports, and you set who is notified when an action isn’t picked up.

Do we need to replace our EHS system?

No. Shopfloor AI captures what happens on the line, where most near-misses are never written down, and gives supervisors and the plant team a working view of it. Reports can be printed or saved as PDF for your existing safety process.

How do we get started?

Most plants start with a 90-day pilot on one line or area. That way you can measure reporting before and after, then scale to the rest of the plant.

Measure how many near-misses get reported before and after, and how fast they’re closed.
