Your own exposure record, call by call

RespAI keeps a private exposure record for every firefighter, measured on every call you run. The sensor rides on the self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) you already wear, and it does the logging.

Career Exposure Record

Twenty years of fires shouldn’t live in a paper logbook

Exposure records today live in manual logbooks, rarely broken out firefighter by firefighter. RespAI keeps the record for you. The sensor on your pack measures your cumulative volatile organic compound (VOC) dose while you work, and every reading goes straight into your own record. It stays there for the length of your career, with no forms to fill out and nothing to remember three shifts later.

Every incident logged as ppm·minute dose values
Your history can’t be edited, lost, or rewritten
Auditable documentation that supports presumptive-claims conversations
Stays with you for the whole career, department to department

Privacy

Your data is yours

Your exposure history is private to you, the member. The department works from live alerts and department-wide views, and your individual file is not part of what a chief looks at day to day.

Private to the member

Your career exposure history belongs to you. It’s your record, not a personnel file.

Written once, never edited

Once an exposure is written it can’t be edited or deleted by anyone, including your chief. What happened on the call is what stays on the record.

Aggregate for the department

Chiefs see department-wide trends and live safety alerts, which is what they need to keep crews safe on scene. Nobody is browsing your file.

Why It Matters

A record that backs you up

In 2022 the World Health Organization’s cancer agency put occupational firefighting exposure in Group 1: carcinogenic to humans. NIOSH has measured air concentrations on a working fire well above short-term occupational limits. Almost no firefighter has that number for their own career. RespAI keeps it, so a conversation with your physician can start from measurements rather than memory.

Zero Workflow Change

You gear up the way you always have

The RespAI sensor is a multi-gas detector that mounts on a standard SCBA. Once it’s on the pack it stays there. You never switch it on, read it, or carry anything extra.

Fits a standard SCBA, so there is no separate device to clip on and remember
Nothing about how you run a call changes, and there is no training to sit through
Totals your VOC exposure in ppm·minutes, plus CO, H₂S, LEL, and O₂ for acute safety
Streams on its own, with nothing for you to do
Rugged enclosure built for the fireground

On Shift

Your shift, unchanged

Gear up

Put your pack on like any other day. The sensor is already mounted on your SCBA and rides along.

Work the incident

The sensor tracks your cumulative dose while you work. If you go past a limit, command hears about it while you’re still on scene.

Every exposure lands in your private record without anyone filing it. Pull it up whenever you want.
