About

Thalos Tech

Read full description

Thalos is the AI-powered safety compliance platform for construction, manufacturing, healthcare, energy, oil & gas, mining, and 14 other regulated industries. Field workers photograph workplace hazards; Thalos detects what's wrong, cites the matching regulation — from OSHA, EPA, and EM 385 to ANSI, NFPA, ISO, and dozens more US and international standards — and creates the corrective task, usually in under 20 seconds. Built for crews who don't have time to fill out forms. WHAT YOU CAN DO ON THIS APP: • Quick Capture — one tap, camera opens, photo uploads with your last-used site and settings. The fastest path from "I see a hazard" to "it's documented." • Batch Walkthrough — take 10 to 15 photos during a site walk, share metadata across all of them, upload in one go. • Voice Descriptions — tap the microphone and just talk. Speech transcribes on-device. • GPS Tagging — every inspection is tied to its exact spot on the site map. • Daily Briefings — pre-shift toolbox talk auto-generated from recent violations, upcoming deadlines, and your industry's current regulatory hot list. PDF export to print. • QR Equipment Tagging — scan a sticker on scaffolding, a crane, or a confined space. Site, area, and equipment ID auto-fill, so every scan opens a ready-to-go inspection for that asset. • Paulie AI — ask any safety question in plain English. "What PPE do I need for this job?" "What does OSHA 1926.501 say about guardrails?" Cited answers, not guesses. • Offline Capture — no signal? Photos queue and upload the moment you reconnect. The badge shows what's pending. • Witness Signatures — get a responsible party to sign on the phone. Stored with timestamp and GPS for legal defensibility. • Recurring Inspections — schedule "inspect scaffold #4 every Monday." Notifications keep your team on track. WHO USES THIS APP: • General contractors managing multi-site federal construction projects • Safety managers running OSHA, EM 385, or ANSI Z359 compliance programs • Field foremen, safety coordinators, and inspectors who need to log hazards from a phone without typing • Plant managers in manufacturing, energy, agriculture, and warehousing YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS: We don't sell personal information. Photos and inspection records are visible only to authorized members of your organization. We use industry-standard encryption in transit and at rest.
