ABOUT

Mission Statement

Dedicated to pioneering AI solutions for top-tier safety reporting services. At the heart of SafeRBot lies the commitment to Human-Centered AI, fostering efficient and sensitive communication for safety incidents.

How It Works

SafeRBot offers streamlined safety reporting through an AI-powered chat, ensuring confidentiality and ease. For dispatchers, it delivers smart automation and critical data management to boost efficiency and reduce burnout. It's where cutting-edge AI meets compassionate communication.

Following the design principles of Human-Centered AI, we design and implement SafeRBot to enable efficient and effective communications in two major scenarios:

1) Community members, who have communication barriers to talk to real humans, can choose to be guided by an AI agent to file a complete incident report without other humans' involvement

2) Dispatchers can choose to receive AI support when handling incident reports, e.g., reducing repetitious tasks and increasing awareness of potential job potential burnout.
