Motion Capture Risk Analysis

Utilize AI-driven motion capture technology to scan manual tasks on active jobsites, triaging ergonomic risks and generating detailed visual dashboards to guide targeted safety interventions.

Early Symptom Intervention

Provide non-OSHA-recordable manual therapy sessions on-site during work hours, utilizing targeted deep tissue and myofascial release techniques to treat acute strain and restore functional mobility.

Physical Capacity Testing

Evaluate post-offer candidate physical aptitude using job-specific criteria to verify fitness for duty, reducing early employee turnover and new-hire injuries on demanding construction projects.
