The problem

Main contractors want everything. Yesterday.

Pre-qual packs, RAMS approvals, inductions, permits, training records. It eats evenings, and one missing certificate can keep you off site.

RAMS from scratch, every job

Copy-paste from old Word files, then chase signatures on paper.

Site Packs in 10 places

Insurance, CSCS cards, COSHH, permits and certificates are spread across email, Dropbox and the van.

Expiries you find out about too late

An expired lifting check or first aid certificate at the gate means a lost day.

New in G8 ONE

Scan a site with AI

Take up to 6 photos or a short video of the work area. G8 ONE suggests what to look at, and you decide what to keep.

  • Hazards with a severity for each one
  • Suggested controls to reduce the risk
  • Products that may need COSHH, so you can find the real SDS
  • Questions to check on site before work starts

Tick what applies, then add it to

Risk registerA new RAMSRemedial actionsCOSHH drafts

AI results are suggestions, clearly labelled, and must be reviewed by a competent person. Nothing is saved until you tick it.

Digital sign-offs everywhere

RAMS, inductions and clearance to work, toolbox talks, permits and the asbestos register. Workers confirm they have received, read and understood, on your device or by emailed link. Build an audit pack per site or per worker.

Company content audit

An automatic check of your RAMS, COSHH, permits, training, sign-offs, inspections and more, with a score for each area, issues by severity and a trend over time.

Draft RAMS with AI

Ask for suggested hazards for your tasks, tick the ones that apply, then edit. Nothing is added until you choose it.

AI photo check

Snap an inspection, incident or site photo and get suggested hazards to review.

Asbestos surveys and register

Upload a survey and AI reads it into a draft register for you to check. Items the report marks as no asbestos detected are left out. Workers sign to acknowledge it.

COSHH documents

Assessments in the EasyCOSHH style, with your logo and colours, fill-in fields, signatures and approvals. Download as a PDF.

Fire doors and remedials

Track fire door checks and remedial actions through to close-out.

HAVs and noise

Vibration exposure by worker and tool, including your own tools. A decibel meter that records the worker, tool and exposure time.

Toolbox talk library

Ready-made talks based on HSE guidance, or write your own. Each delivery collects its own signatures.

Export exactly what you need

Choose the sections, fields and date range for any PDF or CSV export, and save presets.

Off-site sign-in alerts

You're notified when someone signs in away from the site, or with location turned off.

Multi-language

Operative screens in several languages, with English for the office.

Features

Everything a tier 1 asks for, in one app your team will actually use

Plan the work in the office, run it on site from any phone.

RAMS wizard

Pick the trade and tasks. G8 ONE fills in the rest.

Hazards, risk scores, controls, method steps, PPE and emergency info are drafted from a built-in library. Edit anything.

  • Postcode lookup adds the nearest A&E and flags pre-2000 buildings for asbestos checks
  • Suggests the right permits and toolbox talks from your tasks
  • Photos on every hazard and method step
  • Reuse a previous job in about a minute

Site Pack

One click. One indexed PDF. Everything the PC asked for.

Tick the sections, or let your trade pre-tick them, and G8 ONE builds a cover, contents and every document in order. Missing or expired items are flagged before you send.

  • Company details, insurance and your accreditation certificates
  • RAMS, COSHH with SDS references, permits, inspections
  • Training & CSCS matrix, right to work and DBS checks
  • Plant certificates, handover certificates and CDM documents
  • Send as a PDF or a live share link

QR sign-in & roll call

Scan in at the gate. Sign out when you leave.

Workers scan the site QR code, photograph their card and do the induction on their own phone, with no app to install. You see who's on site live, and the fire roll call is one tap.

  • Reminder to sign out if someone's still signed in at the end of the day
  • Managers can sign people out on their behalf
  • Operatives sign RAMS briefings with a finger
Phone screen: you're signed in, with a big sign out button

Permits & inspections

Permits and checks that live with the job.

Hot works, height, isolation, permit to dig, confined space and fire alarm isolation, each with its pre-start checks. Inspections take a photo on every item, and failed items become actions with an owner.

  • Approve from your phone
  • Scaffold, tower and weekly audit checklists built in
Permits to work
Permits to work list with live and awaiting approval statuses
Team & training

Never get turned away for an expired card.

CSCS, SMSTS, first aid, asbestos, IPAF and PASMA in one colour-coded matrix. Reminders go out 60, 30 and 7 days before anything expires, and anyone with an expired card is flagged when you add them to a job.

Team & training
Training matrix with expiry colours
HAVs & noise

Exposure worked out as you go.

Log tool use in seconds. G8 ONE calculates hand-arm vibration points (using HSE's published points system) and daily noise exposure, and warns before anyone reaches the action or limit values.

HAVs & noise
HAVs and noise calculators
COSHH

A folder of SDS in. Draft COSHH assessments out.

Drop in a batch of safety data sheet PDFs and G8 ONE drafts a COSHH assessment for each one, with hazards, PPE, first aid and storage filled in for you to check and approve. No more typing them up one by one.

  • Bulk SDS upload, or type a product and we find the UK sheet
  • "Newer SDS available" alerts when a supplier updates a sheet
  • Printable QR cupboard labels that open the read-only assessment
  • Share a site's whole COSHH file by link, and revoke it any time

Built by people who run sites

Shaped on real jobs, not in a boardroom.

G8 ONE is made by people who run sites and deal with main contractor paperwork every week. Every screen is built around what tier 1 contractors actually ask subcontractors for: RAMS that match the job, signed briefings, permits, in-date cards and a complete Site Pack.

Operatives never need an app or a login. They scan a QR code, read and sign on their own phone, and you see it live.

FAQ

Questions subcontractors ask us

How does the free trial work?

You get 30 days with everything included and no limits on users, projects or operatives, so your whole team can use it on real jobs. A card is required to start, but you won't be charged until day 31, and you can cancel anytime before then. We’ll remind you 3 days and 1 day before it ends. Choose a plan at any time and everything you’ve set up carries over. If you don’t choose one, your account turns read-only and your data is kept for 30 days, then it’s deleted. During the trial and those 30 days you can export everything free in one download: RAMS and documents as PDFs with your branding, registers, sign-ins and timesheets as spreadsheets that open in Excel, permits, toolbox talk records with signatures, and photos. Your data is yours, and you’re welcome back any time.

Do my operatives need to download an app?

No. They scan a QR code or tap a text link and it opens in their phone's browser. Sign-in, induction, RAMS sign-off and incident reports all work that way.

Will a main contractor accept G8 ONE documents?

G8 ONE produces professional PDFs and Site Packs with your branding. What each main contractor accepts is up to them, and you can edit every RAMS to match their requirements before you send it.

Is the content written by safety professionals?

The built-in library gives you a strong starting point, with hazards and controls for common UK trades. You stay responsible for checking every RAMS fits the job, and G8 ONE makes that faster.

Can I put my own logo on everything?

Yes, from the Business plan up: your logo and colours on the app, PDFs and Site Pack cover. Your own web address is included on Enterprise or available as a £75/month add-on.

How does COSHH work?

Type the product name and G8 ONE finds the UK safety data sheet and drafts the assessment via EasyCOSHH. Got lots of sheets already? Upload them in one go and you get a draft assessment for each one to check and approve. If a supplier issues a newer SDS, it’s flagged in your register.

Can I share documents without giving people a login?

Yes. Share a Site Pack, a site’s COSHH file or a set of company documents as a read-only link. It always shows the latest approved versions, can expire, and you can revoke it at any time. Each COSHH product can also have a printable QR label.

How does team access work?

Invite people by email and give each a role: manager, supervisor, office or read-only. Plans include a set number of users, with extra users at £9/month. Operatives who only sign in, sign off and report never need a paid seat.

Where is my data stored?

We plan UK hosting with encryption in transit and at rest. Ask us about security on your demo.

Can I bring my data from my old system?

Yes. On every plan you can import staff, training records with expiry dates and sites from a spreadsheet or your old system’s export. Columns are matched for you and problems like missing fields, bad dates and duplicates are flagged before anything is imported. You can also drop in a folder of certificates and policies and confirm where each one goes. On Business and Enterprise, we’ll load your exports for you at no extra cost.

How does the AI work?

AI is used to suggest hazards, read asbestos surveys and scan site photos or video. Every result is labelled as a suggestion, and nothing is saved until you tick it. A competent person must always review RAMS, COSHH and registers before they are issued.

Can I cancel?

Monthly plans can be cancelled at any time. Annual plans get two months free.
