For crews who work in no-signal environments

When the signal drops, the answer stays.

PocketAtom supports work in no-signal environments by answering operational questions. Crews might need to know the steps, specifications, or procedures when out in the field. PocketAtom understands what you're asking and finds the answer in your own guides, verified and reviewed by a field expert. It is built specifically for the Waiting Window™: the stretch of time when a lone or remote worker is on their own and needs an answer.

PocketAtom finds answers in your own approved procedures. It is not a medical device, and it does not replace your training, your safety rules, or a call to emergency services.

The problem

With no signal, a lone worker is on their own when trouble hits.

The Waiting Window is the gap between a problem appearing and an answer arriving to solve an issue on site. Depending on the location, that is, underground, offshore, or deep in the wilderness, that period can last several hours to several days. Cloud apps go blank without a connection, and a standard AI chatbot will invent an answer and sound sure even when it's wrong. Your crew needs instructions on the right next steps, right where they're standing. That's where PocketAtom comes in.

Answers with no signal

Runs on your device, so no satellite, radio, wifi, or data plan is needed.

Verified & reviewed

Every answer comes from your own procedures, verified and reviewed by a field expert.

Easy on the battery

It only runs when you ask, so it's built for long days far from home base.

Who it's for

One answer. Two groups who need it.

For your crews

You're never on your own.

The right step, the specifications, or procedure all answered offline, in the moment you need it, so that a lone or remote worker always has the answer, even when no one is reachable in remote locations.

For safety & operations leads

Cover the knowledge gap, and prove it.

Instant offline access to your approved procedures that supports your duty to protect lone workers in risky environments, and leaves an audit-ready record.

How it works

Get answers even if you are offline.

A real example

A lone technician, two hours past the nearest cell tower with no signal, asks:

Worker
There's a slow ticking from the number 3 pump and it won't hold pressure. What do I check first?
PocketAtom
A ticking with pressure loss points to the suction strainer and the shaft seal. Check the strainer for blockage first, then the seal. Both checks are in the Injection Pump O&M guide, section 4.2 (Pressure Loss).
Verified and reviewed by a field expert · from your own Injection Pump O&M guide
Worker
Can I jump the interlock to keep it running till end of shift?
PocketAtom
I can't answer that as there's no approved step for it in your guides. Don't guess on this one. When you're able, please call your supervisor before you touch the interlock.

Ask messy, unscripted, half-formed questions

Ask it however it comes out in the field, and it makes sense of the question and finds the answer in your own guides.

PocketAtom won't just guess

It only uses your own company guides, and shows where each answer came from. If it doesn't know, it tells you.

Reviewed by a field expert

A field expert reviews and approves each guide, and you keep that proof in your safety file.

Offline, but a reliable advisor

PocketAtom finds an answer crews can trust.

A standard AI app is just a confident guesser as it can invent an answer and still sound certain, which isn't safe when crews work in high risk environments. PocketAtom only gives answers from your own guidance material that a field expert has verified and reviewed, and it clearly states when it doesn't know. That's what makes offline AI safe to rely on for high-consequence work where the signal ends.

How it compares

A document still makes you search for the answer.

An operational manual or FAQ makes you find the page for your question. PocketAtom interprets your question however messily you ask it.

Questions

What every team asks.

We already keep our procedures on our phones. Why do we need PocketAtom?

An operational manual or FAQ makes you find the page for your question. PocketAtom interprets your question however messily you ask it. PocketAtom can help find you an answer even when you can't phrase the problem precisely. So PocketAtom does not just look through a database of pre-written answers, it makes sense of your question and points you in the right direction. In addition, it responds back with the relevant step from your own guides with a reference, and clearly states when it doesn't know the answer.

What is the Waiting Window?

The gap between the moment a problem is encountered and the moment an answer arrives by way of a signal, an expert, or help on the scene. It is the minutes or hours a lone worker or remote crew is on their own. PocketAtom is built for the Waiting Window.

What is a no-signal environment?

Anywhere work happens beyond reliable cell, radio, satellite, wifi, or internet coverage, e.g. underground, offshore, or deep in the backcountry. Where the signal ends and connected apps stop working.

Is PocketAtom a medical device?

No. PocketAtom finds answers in your own approved procedures offline. It does not diagnose, it does not treat, and it does not replace training, safety rules, or a call to emergency services.

How is PocketAtom different from a general AI chatbot?

A general AI chatbot needs a signal, and it will confidently make up an answer that can be wrong. PocketAtom works offline and only answers from your own operating procedures that have been verified and reviewed by a field expert. Furthermore, PocketAtom shows the source and will clearly state to the users when it doesn't know the answer.

Can I trust an answer when there is no signal?

You can when the answer is verified. Every answer comes from your own guides, verified and reviewed by a field expert, shows where it came from, and clearly states when it doesn't know the answer.

What does "verified and reviewed by a field expert" mean?

A real, experienced person who has done the work has reviewed and approved the guide the answer comes from, and dated it. You can keep that proof in a safety or compliance file.

Does my data stay private?

Yes. Because everything runs on the device, your questions and data don't leave the phone unless you choose to sync them.

Who is PocketAtom for?

Lone workers and remote crews who work in high risk jobs where the signal drops, e.g. utilities and renewables, mining and exploration, oil and gas, forestry, and maritime.
