Name: Granite Safety Platform
Brand: Granite Safety

The short answer. Granite Safety is a six-feature platform that closes the loop between a near-miss in the field, the retraining the regulator expects, and the verifiable certificate the owner asks for at the gate. Built by safety pros running active stadium and hospital builds — not a content vendor with software bolted on.

Every feature below was specified by people on a job site this week. Each section explains what the feature does, how it works in practice, and why the legacy safety-training vendors do not ship it. Sources for every competitor claim sit in /research/competitors/.

Knowledge-Gap Engine

AI watches how each crew member answers — flags the weak topics before recertification, before the inspector, before the incident.

Most safety LMSs treat a quiz as a gate — pass and you get the card. The Knowledge-Gap Engine treats every answer as a signal. It reads the way each crew member moves through a course, the topics they re-take, the questions they guess on, the modules where their attempt rate spikes. The output is a working map of where your crew is actually weak — by individual, by trade, by topic.

For the foreman, this means the toolbox talk on Monday morning targets the topic the crew is genuinely soft on, not whatever PDF was on the shelf. For the safety director, it means the recertification list is no longer "everyone whose card is expiring this quarter" — it's the people the data says will fail their next assessment if they don't re-study now.

It is also the engine that drives the Incident-to-Training Loop. Knowledge gaps are leading indicators of incidents; closing them in the right order is how a regulator expects a real safety program to behave.

How it works

01 Each course module produces a per-question attempt log on enrollment.
02 The engine groups attempts by topic — Focus Four, PPE, scaffolding, ICRA, and on.
03 Weak topics surface on the foreman dashboard with a confidence score and a sample size.
04 The system suggests the exact retraining module to assign — by individual, by crew, or as a 15-minute toolbox talk.
05 Every retake feeds back into the engine. The map updates in near-real time.

Toolbox Talks On Demand

Generate site-specific, OSHA-aligned toolbox talks in seconds — your hazards, your equipment, your last-week incident, your language.

Toolbox talks are how a U.S. construction site actually runs its safety program day to day. The standard problem: the talks are generic, undated, the same five PDFs in the trailer for six years. They do not reference the equipment on this site, the trade mix on this site, the near-miss the carpenters had on Tuesday.

Toolbox Talks On Demand generates a site-specific, OSHA-aligned talk in seconds. You give it the project, the trade, the equipment, the recent incident if any. It outputs the script the foreman reads at the trailer plus a one-page printed handout the crew signs. Available in English and Spanish. OSHA references are inline so a regulator reading the printed talk can map it back to the standard.

The talk feeds the rest of the platform — sign-offs become attendance records, attendance records become audit-ready documentation, and the topic feeds back into the Knowledge-Gap Engine so the next talk targets the topic the crew is actually weak on.

How it works

01 Foreman opens the platform on phone or tablet at the trailer.
02 Selects project, trade, hazard category, and recent incident (optional).
03 Platform drafts a 10–15 minute talk with OSHA citations inline.
04 Foreman reviews, edits if needed, prints the handout, runs the talk.
05 Crew signs in digitally. Records become part of the project's audit trail.

Incident-to-Training Loop

Log a near-miss in the field, and the system suggests the exact retraining modules to assign — closing the loop the way regulators expect it.

The way OSHA expects a safety program to behave: an incident or near-miss is logged, root cause is investigated, a corrective action is taken, the corrective action is documented. Most LMS products in this space stop at "here is a course catalog." They do not connect a near-miss in the field to the training assignment that closes the loop.

Granite's Incident-to-Training Loop closes that gap. A foreman logs a near-miss on the phone — three taps. The platform classifies the event, suggests the exact retraining module to assign by topic and individual, and routes it to the right people. The sign-off becomes part of the incident's permanent record.

Falls killed 389 construction workers in 2024 — about 38% of all U.S. construction fatalities (BLS / Construction Dive, 2024). Fall Protection has been OSHA's most-cited standard fifteen years running (OSHA Top 10, FY2025). The loop is built specifically for the trade where it matters most.

How it works

01 Near-miss logged in 30 seconds — what happened, where, who, photo if any.
02 Platform classifies the event by hazard category and OSHA standard.
03 Suggested retraining modules surface — by individual, by crew, or by trade.
04 Assignments push to the right phones. Foreman sees completion in real time.
05 The corrective action — incident, training, sign-off — is one record an inspector can read in a single screen.

Verifiable Certificates

Every certificate carries a public verification URL. Owners, GCs, and inspectors can confirm in one click — no PDFs, no email chases.

The most common safety document on a U.S. construction site is a paper or PDF copy of an OSHA 10 or 30 card. The most common gate-trailer conversation is the GC's site-safety officer asking the trade contractor's foreman where the crew's cards are. Verifiable Certificates collapse that exchange to one click.

Every certificate Granite Safety issues carries a public verification URL printed on the card. An owner, a GC, an inspector, or an insurer enters the certificate ID and gets the issued-to name, the course, the issue date, the expiration date, and the issuing trainer. No emailing PDFs. No "where's the card" trade chase. No handing a printed card to a regulator who has to call the issuer to validate it.

Federal OSHA Outreach cards are valid five years from the date of issue; Granite Safety's own course-completion certificates carry a recommended five-year refresh. Verification displays the instructor, the topic hours, and the version of the curriculum used. Federal Outreach card issuance is on the platform launch roadmap.

How it works

01 Crew member completes the course and the final assessment.
02 Platform issues the certificate with a unique ID and a public verification URL.
03 Card is printable, downloadable as PDF, and viewable on phone — your choice.
04 Anyone with the URL or the QR code on the card sees the live verification page.
05 Records persist for the life of the card, plus the audit retention window your owner requires.

Construction Safety Catalog

Fall protection, scaffold, confined space, MEWPs, silica, lockout/tagout, ICRA 2.0, OSHA Subpart R — taught to OSHA standards by professionals who actually use them.

The course catalog is wide — 10-Hour and 30-Hour curricula in Construction and General Industry (Outreach-aligned), ICRA 2.0 for healthcare construction, Fall Protection Competent Person, Confined Space, OSHA Subpart R for steel erection, and more. The difference is the bench writing it. Joe Henricks personally holds the OSHA 500 Authorized Trainer authorization. He is on a stadium right now. Fred Wilton holds the BCSP CSP — the gold-standard credential for occupational safety in the United States — and was Western Regional Safety Director at Clark Construction supervising 14 safety professionals across $1.2B/year of West Coast work.

Course content is written and reviewed by people doing the job this week. Stadium examples come from stadiums. Hospital examples come from active healthcare construction with immunocompromised patients next door. Subpart R examples come from steel erection happening on a real site — not stock footage.

The catalog is honest about what we deliver today and what is on the roadmap. The 10/30 curricula are taught to OSHA Outreach standards; federal Outreach card issuance is on the platform launch roadmap. Cal/OSHA, New York, Nevada, and Massachusetts each layer additional requirements; we flag them at enrollment so you do not end up with a certificate that gets rejected at the gate.

How it works

01 Choose the course and confirm the state of operation.
02 Platform flags any state-plan add-ons (Cal/OSHA, NY, NV, MA) at enrollment.
03 Self-paced delivery on phone, tablet, laptop. 180-day completion window on the 10/30 curricula.
04 Final assessment with retake support — failed topics route back to the relevant module.
05 Verifiable course-completion certificate on completion. Refresh recommended every five years (matching federal Outreach card lifespan).

Bulk Crew Enrollment

Buy seats, assign a foreman, push a course to a 40-person crew, watch progress live. Built for multi-employer construction sites, not single-seat consumers.

The U.S. construction site is multi-employer by design. The GC manages the project, but ten or twenty trade contractors deliver it. Bulk Crew Enrollment is built for that reality — buy seats, assign a foreman, push a course to a 40-person crew, watch progress live on a single dashboard.

You can move seats between crews as foremen rotate. You can pull individual transcripts on demand for an audit. You can export a CSV of completion status for an owner who wants documentation by Friday. You are not locked out of your own training records — they live inside your account, and you can take them with you.

For Foundation 50 Charter Members, the 30% Year One discount stacks with bulk tiers — the Charter rate locks for life and the bulk discount applies on top. See the Foundation 50 page for the full benefit list.

How it works

01 Buy a pool of seats. Single PO, single invoice.
02 Assign a foreman as crew lead. Foreman invites their crew by email or phone.
03 Push a course to the whole crew with one click — or a custom curriculum across courses.
04 Live progress on the dashboard. Stuck modules surface for foreman attention.
05 Audit-ready completion reports on demand — by crew, by trade, by project, by date range.
