A crew member takes photos of a machine or site with a phone. SiteSense reads them, rates what it finds by severity, and drafts the work order — so the decision about what happens next starts before anyone drives back to the shop.
How it works
- Take the photos. On site, with a phone — equipment, engines, tires, steering, tanks, whatever needs a second set of eyes. No special gear.
- SiteSense triages. Each photo is assessed; findings come back severity-rated, worst first, as a drafted work order your crew can act on or overrule.
- Your people decide. SiteSense drafts; people decide. Anything rated “do not start” gets a human's eyes before it gets a key.
Field-tested, not slideware
Built and tested on real equipment in the Peace Region — 100 ground photos across seven machines and a boat, every one run live:
- A “do not start” fire hazard — leaves and a rag on a hot exhaust in a skid steer's engine bay, with loose wiring besides, flagged before anyone turned the key.
- A bent steering tie rod on an M-R-S tractor — one of only three of its kind left in the world — caught from ground photos.
- An unsecured fuel can inside a boat cabin, flagged with one instruction: get it out of the cabin now.
What SiteSense does not do
SiteSense triages from photos and drafts work orders. It does not detect gas. It does not certify equipment. It does not replace your inspectors. When a photo isn't enough to judge, it says so and sends a person — an honest “I'm not sure” is worth more than a confident wrong answer. That honesty is the product.
Who it's for
Field crews, remote operations, and energy and trades teams who work far from the shop and further from a second opinion.
