Fire is used here to demonstrate the workflow. In the app you can create any type of risk assessment, not only fire-related work.

This demo shows one control. In the full app, every assessment works the same way:

  • Custom categories — add your own sections (fire safety, means of escape, documentation, and so on) or start from a template and edit it
  • Custom controls — each line is a check you define. Add, remove, rename or disable any control in a category
  • Saved comments — build a library of compliant notes, hazards and corrective actions per control. Pick from the list on site instead of retyping
  • Site photos — take or attach photos when you mark compliant or raise an action. They stay with that entry and export in the PDF report
  • AI assists, you decide — improve wording, generate actions, draft hazard text from photos, or QA the finished report. You review and sign everything before it goes to the client

The saved comments in this demo are examples. In the app you build and edit your own library.

Built-in AI

AI on every assessment. You stay in charge.

Lytom Assess generates your template, suggests corrective actions, drafts hazard text from site photos, writes your executive summary and QA-checks the finished report. You decide what stays and when it goes out. Read our position on AI →

AI QA check on every report

Before you issue, AI scans your completed assessment and flags inconsistencies, missing controls, weak descriptions and gaps. A second pair of eyes on every report you sign your name to.

Executive summary, written from your findings

AI reads the full report and writes a clear executive summary your client can scan in thirty seconds. Edit before you issue.

In-depth template from a few words

Type something like “office fire risk assessment” and AI generates a complete, in-depth template with the relevant hazards, controls and structure. Amend to fit the site, instead of starting from blank.

Corrective actions, suggested for each hazard

Describe a hazard once. AI suggests corrective actions you can keep, edit or replace.

Reword any field, anywhere in the report

Need a section clearer for a non-technical reader, or tighter for an executive audience? AI rewords any field. You keep the final word.

AI from site photos: Attach photos in an action dialog and AI can draft hazard text from what it sees. You verify on site before saving — AI can miss details or get things wrong. You sign every report. Read our position on AI →

Going deeper: read our guide on where AI helps in risk assessment, where it doesn’t, and how to QA the output. A practitioner’s view including a 7-point QA checklist for any AI-drafted assessment.

From the field

A note from our founder

Lytom comes from years in corporate health and safety, where good software existed but was out of reach for most independent consultants.

Works worldwide. Default templates reflect common UK practice. Edit every template, report section and legislation reference for your jurisdiction.

I spent most of my career working as a health and safety consultant for major corporations. In that environment, if you need a workflow optimized or a reporting bottleneck fixed, you turn to an IT department. Those companies either have their own team of developers or they throw millions at enterprise software vendors to maintain their platforms.

When I left the corporate world to set up as an independent consultant, I hit a massive wall.

The software available to independent professionals and smaller teams was miles behind what I was used to using. There was no single place to run a business. Instead, you had to cobble together individual tools across entirely different platforms. You had to use one tool for the assessment, one for the report, and another for tracking actions.

Worse, this fragmented setup was being passed straight down to the clients. They were left trying to manage their health and safety compliance across a messy mix of emails, loose PDFs, and scattered spreadsheets.

Lytom was not built to join a crowded market of generic template generators. It was engineered to give independent consultants and growing teams the same level of technical capability, speed, and reporting depth as the biggest corporations, but at a price that actually makes sense for a smaller business.

Crucially, it solves the problem for both sides of the relationship. It allows consultants to complete site assessments and issue polished, branded reports instantly. At the same time, it automatically gives their clients a dedicated compliance portal to track actions, manage documents, and stay audit-ready between visits.

You should not need a corporate budget to use professional tools.

Who is Lytom Assess for?

Lytom Assess is built for independent health and safety consultants, sole practitioners and small consultancy teams (typically 1 to 10 consultants) who issue branded risk assessment reports to clients and want a client portal included rather than bolted on.

How is Lytom Assess different from Lytom Comply?

Lytom Assess is the consultant app. Health and safety consultants use it to run risk assessments and issue branded PDF reports to their clients. Lytom Comply is the portal those clients use day to day. Clients track PPM schedules, fire doors, incidents, permits, water logs and their own in-house risk assessments. The two products share data. Assessments and actions raised by the consultant in Lytom Assess appear in the client's Lytom Comply portal automatically.

How does Lytom Assess compare to HandsHQ?

Lytom Assess is built for independent health and safety consultants who do general H&S, fire, COSHH, asbestos, water, working at height and environmental assessments across many sectors. HandsHQ is template-led and most often used by construction consultancies who need method statements alongside their RAMS. Lytom Assess includes a built-in client portal, AI-assisted drafting and QA on every report, a native iOS app, and per-seat pricing from £59/month. Pricing for HandsHQ is quoted on request.

How does Lytom Assess compare to SafetyCulture (iAuditor)?

SafetyCulture (iAuditor) is a global inspection platform built for large enterprises with many integrations and a wide marketplace of templates. Lytom Assess is built specifically for independent health and safety consultants. It comes with practical templates for fire, COSHH, asbestos, water, working at height and other common assessment types, a branded PDF report builder that suits consultancy work, a client portal for every client site, and AI-assisted drafting throughout. Pricing is per consultant seat from £59/month, not per inspection or per client.

Lytom Linked

Fair summary: These three tools price for three different buyers. HandsHQ is per package, designed around construction RAMS. Strong if that's most of what you produce. SafetyCulture is per user, designed for in-house operations teams that run their own inspections at scale. Lytom Assess is per consultant with unlimited client logins, designed for the consultant who sells branded reports into a client's portal. If you sell H&S work to clients, you're paying per consultant in Lytom and per user in SafetyCulture, and those two models behave very differently as your client count grows.
