Simplify construction safety management
Efficient safety inspections, quick results
Start an OpenSpace 360° capture as soon as you begin a safety inspection, and you’ll have a complete visual record of the walk to review later. See a safety violation like a fall hazard from an elevator shaft not properly closed off? Document it on the spot with Field Notes. Take a photo, mark it up, add comments and a status, then assign the note to the right person for follow-up. AI Voice Notes make incident reporting and safety observations even faster: describe what you see, and OpenSpace fills in the details and assigns the task. No stopping to type.
Clear communication & visual proof
After a safety walk, skip the manual write-up. Generate a PDF of your Field Notes, complete with comments and images, and attach it to your safety inspection records. Assign tags to Field Notes like Electrical Hazard, Confined Space, Temporary Guardrail, and Heat Awareness so you can filter and build comprehensive safety reports by category. Consistent construction photo documentation also gives you visual proof of site conditions if an incident or claim comes up. Add images to Shared Folders to easily share safety concerns with your team.
Spot potential hazards from anywhere
You can’t be everywhere at once. When new captures come in, safety managers can virtually walk jobsites and identify potential hazards— from missing PPE to an unprotected area—without another site visit. Just like during an on-site inspection, it's simple to use Field Notes to flag what needs attention, assign it to the right person, and check status later to verify if it was addressed. Now it's easy to stay on top of site safety across multiple construction projects.
Turn captures into safety intelligence
One capture can support more than one team. The same visual record used for construction safety can help project teams review weekly progress—without another walk. Over time, that visual record becomes a source of safety performance insight: safety managers can identify trends across projects, compare safety metrics between jobsites, and spot where risk keeps showing up. Captures also power internal training—set up a project as a training module for new hires, let them walk a practice site and call out concerns using Field Notes, then review what they caught and missed.
Why choose OpenSpace to be your safety partner?
Easy
OpenSpace is quick to deploy, easy to use right out of the gate, and field teams actually use it. That means safety teams will have the data they need to keep an eye on jobsites and to include in safety records. OpenSpace works on the mobile devices your crews already carry—iPhones, iPads, and Android—so the app goes wherever the work does.
Fast
To capture, connect your 360° camera to our app incredibly fast with QuickConnect. Quickly access on-site conditions from anywhere to see if any safety concerns need attention. Get the right information to the right person with Field Notes so they can address safety issues fast.
Powerful
The OpenSpace Spatial AI engine uses computer vision to power our platform—mapping every capture to your plans and making the time from capturing to viewing incredibly fast. So you can get right to reviewing the jobsite from anywhere, and to sharing a safety inspection walk.
Reliable
OpenSpace is the most reliable and secure documentation solution for construction safety. View all your data on a single platform with our smart integrations. Capture safety items as Autodesk Issues or Procore Observations and Punch List items right in OpenSpace using Field Notes. And skip the double entry with two-way sync.

Watch nowFrequently asked questions
How does construction safety software help reduce jobsite incidents?
Construction safety software reduces incidents by making hazards visible before they cause harm. With OpenSpace, safety managers document conditions during every site walk and capture real-time data they can act on immediately—a blocked exit, missing guardrail, or PPE gap flagged the moment it’s spotted. Because every observation is time-stamped and tied to a location, teams can trace root causes, track how quickly issues get resolved, and strengthen their safety program over time. That pairing of fast field capture and safety data turns a reactive process into a proactive one.
How does visual documentation improve construction safety?
Visual documentation improves construction safety by replacing memory and paperwork with verifiable proof. Instead of relying on written notes, builders capture 360° imagery of the construction site, so anyone can see the exact condition of an area on a given day. When a question or claim comes up later, that visual record supports regulatory compliance and gives everyone a shared, accurate reference. It also speeds up reporting—teams attach imagery to safety reports and show, rather than describe, what was on-site.
How do I choose the right safety management software?
Start with how your field workers actually work. The right safety management software has to be easy enough that crews use it. Look for safety management solutions that capture visual proof, sync both ways with the platforms you already run like Procore and Autodesk, and turn field observations into safety metrics you can report on. OpenSpace is field-first for exactly this: putting safety in reach on every walk, without adding time-consuming steps.
