Who We Serve · Fire Departments
One platform for the whole department.
RespAI measures each firefighter’s volatile organic compound (VOC) exposure during the call, warns incident command when someone passes a limit from published exposure standards, and keeps a permanent exposure record for every name on your roster. Your crews work the way they always have.
Field to Record
One system, from the self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) to the record
Exposure tracking only helps if it covers everyone. RespAI carries the data from the sensor on a firefighter’s SCBA through to a permanent record in the cloud, so none of it rides on memory or paperwork.
See the whole department at once
The chief dashboard shows who’s exposed, to what, and how much, live from the fireground. Dose is measured in ppm·minutes, not estimated later from how long a crew was inside. Alerts follow fixed rules, so the same dose always raises the same alert.
- Live VOC dose for every firefighter on scene
- Alerts to incident command when a firefighter crosses a threshold
- A department-wide view of exposure across the roster
- Live streaming to the cloud, with machine-learning analysis on top
Zero Change
Zero workflow change for your crews
The multi-gas detector fits a standard SCBA, so there’s no new SCBA to buy and no procedure to rewrite. Your firefighters mask up and work the way they were trained. The monitoring runs on its own.
Mounts on a standard SCBA
No retrofit. The detector fits the SCBA your crews already run.
Multi-gas monitoring
Totals a firefighter’s VOC exposure, in ppm·minutes, alongside CO, H₂S, LEL, and O₂ for acute safety.
Streams to the cloud
Streams the data straight to the cloud, with no action from the crew.
Built for the fireground
A rugged enclosure engineered for heat, water, and impact.
The Problem
Why departments are acting now
Fireground exposure is the defining occupational hazard of the fire service. Most departments still capture it by hand after the call, incident by incident, and rarely for each firefighter who went in.

Roster-Wide Records
A career exposure record for every member
Every incident lands in a permanent record, automatically, for the whole roster. Nothing sits in a notebook waiting to be typed up, and a member’s history follows them when they transfer to another hall or hang up their gear.
Written once, never edited
Exposure data can’t be edited after the fact. Every entry is auditable, which gives your department a record it can stand behind in a review or a claim.
Private to the member
Each firefighter’s exposure history belongs to them. Your department sees the roster-level picture it needs to manage risk, and the detailed record stays with the member it describes.
Audit-ready reporting
Records and reporting meet what NFPA guidance and your occupational health regulator ask you to document, straight from the data instead of assembled by hand the week before an audit.
Getting Started
A pilot path that fits your department
A pilot runs on the gear you have. Detectors mount to the SCBA already on your rigs, so nothing has to wait on a purchase order or a training cycle.
Scope it with us
Tell us about your department: roster size, apparatus, and which crews should carry sensors first. We build the pilot around how you already operate.
Mount and respond
Detectors mount on standard SCBA and start streaming. Dose data is on the chief dashboard from the first call, while the crew is still on air.
Review and expand
Sit down with your command staff, go through the exposure data and the career records, then extend coverage across the roster. A member’s record starts on their first covered shift.

Our first pilot is live with Holyrood Fire Department. Sensors are mounted on SCBA in active service, streaming dose data from the fireground to the chief dashboard.
