HazVox AI — Hands-Free Voice Safety Agent

HazVox AI is an autonomous, hands-free voice compliance and dispatch agent built for high-risk, loud industrial environments like construction sites, factories, and fleet operations. Workers frequently face high friction when filing safety reports due to restricted visual attention, heavy background noise, and manual OSHA paperwork, leading to delayed hazard mitigation and costly non-compliance penalties. HazVox AI solves this by deploying a hardware-to-dashboard pipeline powered by AssemblyAI's Voice Agent API and Universal-3 Pro model. Workers simply speak into a WebRTC microphone stream. AssemblyAI manages voice activity detection, natural turn-taking, and extreme noise rejection over industrial background sound. Through native JSON-Schema tool calling (`report_safety_hazard`), HazVox extracts structured arguments—such as hazard severity level, equipment ID, and precise location—and posts them directly through a Next.js API route into a Supabase PostgreSQL backend. Supabase Realtime Subscriptions immediately broadcast the updated safety event to an industrial dark-mode command center dashboard, giving operations managers instant situational awareness without worker friction. By eliminating manual logging, HazVox AI reduces workers' compensation insurance premiums by 5–15%, prevents heavy regulatory fines, and recovers billable labor hours. Future roadmap features include Gemini-powered automated triage and Slack dispatch workflows.
