Ontario-built · For construction crews

Every safety tool proves your crew showed up. Dashpot proves they understood.

Dashpot reads the hazard plan your site already makes every morning, then runs a five-minute guided dialogue with each worker — by SMS, no app — until they've explained today's hazards back in their own words. The output isn't a signature. It's a per-worker, per-hazard record of verified comprehension.

Dashpot · from today's JSP — Unit 4 slab

Cutting concrete block today. Walk me through how you'll control the silica dust.

Worker 014

wet cut. keep water on the blade so dust never goes airborne. respirator if we have to dry cut inside

Dashpot · follow-up

Close. What do you do if the water feed dies halfway through a cut?

Worker 014

stop cutting. no water, no cut. tell the foreman, swap the feed before we start again

01 / The problem with the sign-in sheet

Nobody can prove anyone understood anything.

Every morning, on every active jobsite, a supervisor reads the hazard plan, workers nod and sign, and the binder fills with proof of attendance. That gap costs you three ways.

01
Invisible

The work you never bid

COR™ gates public work. Contractor platforms grade you for utilities, transit, and major GCs — slip a threshold and the invitations quietly stop. Your safety record is a sales document. Almost nobody manages it like one.

02
Certain

The training day you pay twice for

A classroom day burns $250–500+ per worker in wages alone — paid for zero production — for the format research says retains worst. Most of that training isn't legislated off-site. It's habit.

03
Contingent

The worst day, undefended

Ontario now carries fines up to $2M per offence and a $500k mandatory minimum for repeat serious offences. Against that exposure, a signature collected in the morning rush is thin evidence of due diligence.

02 / The morning loop

No new workflow. The JSP you already make is the trigger.

Upload the JSP

Supervisor snaps a photo or uploads the pre-task plan the site already produces.

AI reads the hazards

Dashpot extracts the specific hazards on today's actual work — not generic content.

Crew gets a text

Each worker receives an SMS link. No app, no account, no password.

Short video + dialogue

A focused micro-lesson, then a guided dialogue that requires the worker to explain it back.

Gaps close, on record

A weak answer triggers remediation and a re-check. Every record ends gap found → gap closed.

Evidence, banked

The safety lead sees real-time comprehension; the transcript files itself as audit-ready evidence.

03 / Why contractors buy it

One five-minute habit. Three jobs done.

W Win it

Win safety-gated work

Your record becomes a credential.

Construction's best work sits behind safety gates — and everyday use of Dashpot assembles what gets you through them.

  • COR™ audit evidence built continuously, not the month before
  • Prequalification packages in minutes, not an afternoon
  • A daily, per-worker, verified comprehension rate — the leading indicator no one else on the bid list can produce
F Fund it

The rebate can pay for it

WSIB rewards proven practice.

WSIB's Health & Safety Excellence Program pays $2,000–$50,000 per completed topic, scaled to your premiums — and the program runs on exactly the evidence Dashpot produces every day.

  • Per-worker implementation records, validator-ready
  • Minutes of on-site training instead of days off the tools
  • Works with whichever WSIB-approved provider you already use
K Keep it

Protect the company

Understanding prevents. The record defends.

Crews that genuinely understand hazards make fewer mistakes — and if the worst happens, a contemporaneous reasoning transcript is the strongest training evidence you can put on the table.

  • Per-worker, per-hazard, dated, tamper-evident
  • Gap found → gap closed → verified, before the incident
  • Protects the worker's diligence too — it's their record as much as yours

04 / Not our claims — the literature's

The science said this twenty years ago. It just couldn't scale until now.

Engaging, participatory training builds roughly three times the safety knowledge of passive lectures and videos — and prevents more injuries.

Don't take our word for it. Run a session yourself.

Enter your number and we'll text you the exact link a worker gets — a short training video, then a guided dialogue that checks you actually understood it. No app, no account. It's the real product, running live.

  • 1 Enter your mobile number
  • 2 Tap the link we text you
  • 3 Watch, then explain it back — in ~5 minutes

Standard message rates may apply. We'll only text you the demo link (and may follow up about a pilot). The link expires in 24 hours.

05 / Fall 2026 · Greater Toronto & Hamilton Area

We're onboarding a small number of Ontario pilot contractors.

High-hazard specialty subs, 15–200 workers, with daily JSP discipline. Founder-led, white-glove onboarding — live in one day. If that's you, let's talk.
