Revalidation is coming. You haven't logged a single reflection yet. Sound familiar? Most nurses leave NMC revalidation until the last three months, then panic. Revalidation Copilot is built so that never happens. It keeps your portfolio together from day one of your cycle practice hours, CPD, reflective accounts, practice-related feedback and supporting evidence then hands you a finished pack when it's time to submit. SPEAK IT INSTEAD OF WRITING IT Record a reflection on your break, or type rough notes. You get back a structured account: what happened, what you learned, how it links to the NMC Code, and what you'll do differently. Regenerate until it sounds like you. A CONFIDENTIALITY CHECK ON EVERY DRAFT Before anything is saved, your text is scanned for patient-identifiable details names, NHS numbers, dates of birth, bed spaces. You get a clear pass, or a list of exactly what to change. Pro adds one-tap auto-redaction. KNOW WHERE YOU STAND One dashboard shows your revalidation date, your progress across every core requirement, and what's still outstanding so nothing surfaces as a surprise six weeks out. HOURS THAT ADD UP Log shifts as you work them: substantive, bank or agency. Practice hours and CPD hours are tracked separately, with participatory CPD counted on its own. EVIDENCE IN ONE PLACE Photograph CPD certificates and upload supporting evidence so it attaches to the right entry instead of sitting in your camera roll. THE SUBMISSION PACK (PRO) Export your whole NMC portfolio as a PDF or DOCX pack: summary totals, practice hours log, CPD log, practice-related feedback log, five reflective accounts, and the reflective discussion form in the order they're asked for. WHAT'S FREE, WHAT'S PRO Tracking, logging, evidence and your first AI draft are free. Pro is one yearly subscription that unlocks PDF and DOCX export, auto-redaction and additional AI drafts. No monthly plan, no upsells. YOUR REFLECTIONS ARE YOURS Text and audio are processed to generate your draft. They are not sold, not shared, and not used to train anyone's models. WHO IT'S FOR UK registered nurses, midwives and nursing associates working towards NMC revalidation including nurses returning to practice, internationally educated nurses, and anyone juggling agency or bank shifts across more than one employer. Built by Beemal Innovation for UK nurses and midwives. Revalidation Copilot is an independent app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the Nursing and Midwifery Council. References to the NMC and its requirements are descriptive only.
