At Safety 2025, the American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP) officially launched Safety Trekr AI™, a cutting-edge AI-powered tool designed to place the expertise of the Safety Professionals Handbook right into the hands of safety leaders—on-site and at the desk.
Attendees were treated to an interactive, hands-on experience of the new technology through live demos in the ASSP Marketplace and a Tech Talk session highlighting the platform’s development and real-world use cases. The debut reflects ASSP’s ongoing dedication to advancing digital innovation and knowledge accessibility in service of worker well-being.
“The launch underscores ASSP’s commitment to digital innovation and knowledge accessibility in service of worker well-being,” said Dawn Conroy, ASSP’s Director of Marketing Strategy.
Inside the Technology: Smart, Context-Aware Safety Answers
At the heart of Safety Trekr AI™ is a powerful closed AI model—a tailored system that draws solely from ASSP’s authoritative Safety Professionals Handbook, which spans over 1,330 pages. Rather than pulling information from the open internet, this tool delivers reliable, safety-specific guidance in response to user questions.
“The technology behind the Trekr app relies on a larger language model,” Conroy explained.
“We teach the AI tool to learn about the book. It’s a closed system. The app understands the user’s context of the questions asked. It is going to help you find the right answer based on what you are asking.”
This focused design supports credibility and transparency, addressing a common concern among safety professionals navigating AI tools.
“We know that accuracy and reliability matter as AI tools can be hard to trust,” Conroy added. “But once mastered, users can go back and look at their thread history and see what was asked before. That’s very beneficial.”
Your Pocket Safety Advisor—Anytime, Anywhere
Whether on a jobsite or at your desk, Safety Trekr AI™ offers fast, intelligent access to essential safety knowledge. Users can simply type a workplace safety question or prompt, and the AI tool instantly responds with relevant, verified guidance pulled directly from the Handbook.
Use cases include:
- Real-time answers while conducting fieldwork
- Research support while developing safety plans or protocols
- Continuous learning through saved thread history and self-paced exploration
It’s your go-to safety tool—ready to provide answers when and where you need them.
