Key Features

Digital authorization request and approval for any electrical task
Pre-populated safety checklists based on task type
Photo documentation and timestamped logs
Integration with existing lockout/tagout hardware

Target Users: Electricians and safety managers in medium to large facilities (e.g., hospitals, schools, industrial plants) where non-licensed staff may attempt minor electrical work.

Revenue Model: $19/mo per user subscription with a free tier for basic checklists
