The Site Safety Agent detects hazards, enforces PPE standards, and verifies fall-protection compliance across every active site, without manual review of incoming photos.

The Operational Problem

Field crews capture large volumes of site photos daily. They sit in camera rolls, project management folders, and email threads. Superintendent observations land in one system, daily reports in another, and safety drawings in a shared drive nobody opens until an incident. Each project manager documents hazards differently. Some flag missing PPE thoroughly. Others skip it entirely. No standard format. No real-time visibility.

By the time a weekly safety review surfaces a problem, the trip hazard may already have caused an injury. That gap creates citation exposure, injury-related costs, schedule disruption, and legal risk across active jobs.

How Site Safety Agent Automates This

The Site Safety Agent analyzes site photos, videos, and safety drawings to detect hazards and protocol violations between your team's decisions. Your team decides remediation. The agent reviews visuals and surfaces items that need a decision. It flags conditions and assigns priority ratings. Competent-person judgment, stop-work decisions, and worker identification remain outside the agent's scope.

1

Ingest site visuals

The agent connects to your photo streams, video footage, and safety drawings as they come in from the field. No manual upload sorting across separate folders.

2

Detect hazards and violations

The agent analyzes each visual to detect missing PPE, fall hazards, unsafe equipment operation, blocked access and egress, and trip hazards. It interprets the scene against the specific hazard categories that drive citations and incidents.

3

Assign priority ratings

The agent compares detected conditions and assigns priority ratings, separating an unprotected leading edge from minor housekeeping so your team addresses the highest-severity exposures first.

4

Generate the field-ready report

The agent assembles findings into a simple, actionable list suitable for safety reporting. Each item is structured for the field, not buried in a spreadsheet that nobody reviews in real time.

Inputs & Outputs

Inputs

  • Site photos captured by field crews, superintendents, or fixed cameras across active jobs

  • Site videos and walkthrough footage documenting work in progress

  • Safety drawings defining site-specific protection plans and protocols

Outputs

  • Hazard report identifying missing PPE, fall hazards, unsafe equipment operation, blocked access/egress, and trip hazards

  • Field-ready findings formatted as a simple, actionable list suitable for safety reporting

  • Priority ratings ranking each detected condition by severity so teams act on the highest-risk exposures first

Workflow Context

The Site Safety Agent anchors the construction safety inspection workflow. It converts raw site visuals into structured, prioritized findings instead of unprocessed camera rolls. The agent connects upstream to daily reporting workflows, where field documentation already flows, and feeds downstream into corrective-action tracking and OSHA recordkeeping clusters that depend on a consistent hazard record. Priority-rated findings also route into cross-project monitoring, where recurring patterns across trades and sites become visible to operations leadership. Keeping this workflow current matters because every connected workflow inherits the same source data. A missed fall hazard today becomes an unresolved corrective action, an incomplete audit trail, and an enforcement exposure that surfaces only when an inspector arrives or an incident occurs.

Works With

The Site Safety Agent connects with construction management, field documentation, and document-processing systems that already hold project files, field data, drawings, and compliance documents.

Procore

Procore

Connect Procore project files and field documentation to Datagrid so the agent reviews incoming site visuals and returns prioritized hazard findings.

A

Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC)

Bring ACC project data, drawings, photos, and videos into Datagrid for consistent PPE, fall-hazard, and access-egress detection across active jobs.

F

Fieldwire

Use Fieldwire field data and photo streams as inputs so Datagrid can flag missing PPE, trip hazards, and corrective-action priorities.

PlanGrid

PlanGrid

Connect PlanGrid sheets, field data, and project files to Datagrid so safety drawings and site visuals feed structured hazard reports.

SharePoint

SharePoint

Connect SharePoint libraries to Datagrid so stored safety drawings, photos, and compliance documents become inputs for consistent hazard documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Manual PPE review varies by who is holding the camera. The Site Safety Agent applies the same detection criteria to every photo and video regardless of which project or PM submitted it. Each visual is analyzed for missing PPE against a uniform standard, then returned as a structured finding with a priority rating. Your best superintendent's eye for a missing hard hat or unworn vest becomes the baseline applied to all active sites, including periods when documentation gets compressed at shift change.

The Site Safety Agent analyzes site photos and videos to detect fall hazards as visuals arrive from the field, ahead of a weekly safety review. Detected conditions receive priority ratings so an unprotected edge surfaces ahead of minor housekeeping. This shortens the window between when a hazard exists and when your team sees it documented in a field-ready format. Visual detection identifies observable conditions in imagery. On-site inspection by a competent person remains part of the workflow.

The safety manager remains responsible for judgment. The Site Safety Agent handles the visual review work between decisions. It detects hazards, flags violations, and assigns priority ratings. Your safety manager decides remediation, stops work when warranted, and applies the project-specific context that imagery cannot capture. The agent frees the safety team from manually scanning large volumes of photos so they focus on exception handling and corrective action. It scales your inspection coverage across sites without adding the headcount that one-inspector-per-site coverage would require.

The Site Safety Agent processes site photos, videos, and safety drawings from every connected project through the same detection and priority-rating logic. Findings return in a consistent, structured format regardless of source site. That uniformity makes cross-project comparison possible. Recurring trip hazards across multiple jobs and fall-protection gaps in one phase become visible when every finding follows the same schema rather than living in disconnected camera rolls and spreadsheets.

The Site Safety Agent detects five hazard categories from site photos and videos: missing PPE, fall hazards, unsafe equipment operation, blocked access and egress, and trip hazards. These map directly to the conditions that drive both citations and incidents. The output is a hazard report with field-ready findings and priority ratings. Visual analysis identifies observable conditions. It surfaces a missing harness in frame. Field verification remains necessary to confirm whether a present harness is correctly hooked.

Turn Site Photos Into Safety Findings

The Site Safety Agent turns site photos, videos, and safety drawings into consistent, priority-rated hazard documentation before risks become incidents.

  • Detect: missing PPE, fall hazards, unsafe equipment operation, blocked access and egress, and trip hazards from site visuals
  • Assign priority ratings: so teams address the highest-severity exposures first
  • Generate field-ready reports: formatted as simple, actionable findings
  • Apply the same detection criteria: across connected projects for consistent multi-site visibility
