Site Diary and Daily Report Agent
The Site Diary and Daily Report Agent converts foreman voice notes, WhatsApp photos and daily logs into a structured site diary in English, whatever language the notes were given in. It records labour, plant, weather, deliveries, instructions received, delays and incidents each day, building the contemporaneous record you need for extension of time and delay claims.

Indicative figures. We measure your own baseline in the first fortnight so the numbers you see are yours.
Records made on the day
Delay claims are won or lost on contemporaneous records. A diary completed every day, from what the foreman actually said on site, gives you evidence you can rely on.
Minutes, not hours, for the foreman
Foremen would rather build than write. A two-minute voice note and a few photos become a complete daily report.
Patterns you can act on
Daily data on weather, labour and plant shows productivity trends and recurring delays across the project.
Capabilities
Turn foreman voice notes into a daily site diary that holds up in claims.
Built for site agents, foremen, construction managers and contracts managers at South African main contractors and subcontractors on building and civil works.
Voice and photo capture
Transcribes voice notes, including notes in other South African languages, and reads photos to extract the day's events.
Structured daily diary
Records labour by trade, plant on site and idle, weather, deliveries, visitors and work completed by area.
Instructions and delays
Logs site instructions received and delay events such as rain days, late information or access problems, with times and who was affected.
Incident recording
Captures near misses and incidents for the health and safety file and prompts the reporting required under the Construction Regulations 2014.
Claims support
Links delay entries to programme activities and assembles diary extracts to support extension of time and compensation event submissions.
Weekly summaries
Rolls daily diaries into weekly summaries for progress meetings and the monthly report.
How it works
From your systems to a result you sign off
The site agent reviews and signs off each day's diary, and the contracts manager decides which events are notified to the client.

Deployment
Runs inside the tools your team already uses
The same agent and the same cited output, delivered three ways: through the AI assistant you have rolled out, on a model you host yourself, or inside your own software.
In the frontier assistant you already pay for
We publish the agent as an MCP server. Add it as a connector and your team calls it from the chat they use every day, with no new tool to learn.

- Mistral
- Ollama
- or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint
Inside your own software
Trigger a run from your own workflows, and push the finished output into your ERP, GRC or reporting systems. We build the integration with your team.
- REST API
- Webhooks
- Batch jobs
- Embeddable review panel
Governed the same way, every route
Whichever way your team reaches the agent, identity, permissions and audit stay with your existing controls.
- Single sign-on through Entra ID, Okta or Google Workspace
- Reads only the documents each user is already allowed to open
- Every tool call written to an audit log you can export
How we deliver it
One agent, three ways to hold it
Start where your team already works, then take it as far into your systems as the value justifies.
DATA SECURITY & PRIVACY
Your site records stay yours.
The agent runs inside your tenancy, reads only what each task needs, and never trains on your site records. Every step is logged so your auditors can see exactly what it touched.
Built for regulated work.
+YOUR SITE RECORDS NEVER LEAVE YOUR ENVIRONMENT
