Nothing moves past a hold point.
Holdpoint HSE builds site-specific permit, confined-space and JSA systems for Western Canadian operators. Drafts in minutes; your competent person still signs.
Paperwork built by hand is slow, and the gaps show up in audits.

Short answers.
Is this AI?
Yes, AI helps draft the documents. It does not approve anything. Every draft passes the gate checks you define, and a named person reviews and signs.
Who signs the permit?
Your competent person, every time. Holdpoint HSE issues a draft only after the gates pass; it never signs or authorizes an entry.
Does it replace our permit system?
No. It prepares the documents your existing permit process uses, in your forms and your approval chain.
What if our IT blocks AI tools?
Use the plain web form and receive PDFs. No installs, no plug-ins.
Which regulations?
WorkSafeBC OHS Regulation Part 9 (confined spaces) today. Alberta OHS Code Part 5 is in development.
