AI-assisted pre-job safety for transmission & distribution
The pre-job safety check that reads the site.
Earthwire uses AI to draft a site-specific hazard assessment from a photo of the worksite - grounded in a hazard knowledge base built by a working lineman, then reviewed and signed by a competent person. Everyone home.
The problem
Generic forms don't read the site.
Pre-job risk assessments have become a box-ticking exercise. Crews already carry generic forms on tablets - the same hazards, listed the same way, for every job on every site.
The value isn't another form. It's capturing what's actually on this site, today: the structures, the terrain, the access, the conditions - before anyone climbs.
How it works
Photo to signed assessment in four steps.
Scan the site
Photograph the worksite from multiple angles. No typing on a scaffold, no paperwork in the cab.
AI reads it
Earthwire drafts site-specific hazards from an expert knowledge base of 150+ transmission & distribution scenarios across the UK, Ireland, the US and Australia.
Confirm controls
The supervisor checks each control is physically in place. Work is not authorised until they are.
Good to Go
A signed, branded PDF assessment - with live weather and nearest-hospital details for that exact job.
Why Earthwire
Built for the line, not the office.
Site-specific, not box-ticking
The AI reads the actual worksite - structures, terrain, access, conditions - instead of recycling a template.
Grounded in an expert knowledge base
Every draft draws on a 150-plus hazard library built by a working lineman, spanning planning, electrical, structures, height, stringing, plant, site, weather and emergencies. Safe by design: the AI drafts, it never certifies.
Multi-jurisdiction
Configured for the rules, authorised distances and procedures of AU, US, GB, NI and ROI networks.
Live weather & lightning risk
Current conditions and lightning risk are pulled into every assessment, automatically, at the time of the job.
Nearest hospital on every job
Emergency location and nearest hospital details are attached to every assessment, wherever the crew is working.
Draft only - always signed
Every assessment is reviewed and signed off by a competent, authorised person before work begins.
The supervisor stays in charge
Edit, add or remove any hazard on site. The AI gives a first draft - the competent person decides what's real and signs it off.
Built by people who do the work.
Earthwire's hazard knowledge base was built by a working transmission and distribution lineman - not software people. Every hazard, control and check comes from real experience on the line.
Safe by design
Earthwire produces a draft only.
Current network-owner safety rules, authorised distances and work procedures are loaded per customer. Final review and sign-off is always by a competent authorised person.
Who it's for
Made for the people who keep the lights on.
Contractors
Overhead line, substation and civils crews who need site-specific assessments that stand up to network-owner scrutiny.
Network owners
Transmission & distribution operators standardising pre-job safety - with their own rules and authorised distances - across every crew and contractor.
