Keep your hard hat and gloves on. Use voice dictation to log daily progress, report hazards, and automatically generate structured site inspection reports after processing from the field.

A useful record keeps the details you want to return to: names, decisions, questions and next steps. Chela can process a voice note into organised information that you can review and search. State what matters in the recording, then check the resulting note before using it elsewhere.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will it work around heavy machinery?
Background noise can obscure speech. Record in a safer, quieter place where possible, keep the microphone close enough and test a short sample. Review names, measurements and important wording against the audio before using the transcript.
Can I export the logs to Procore or Fieldwire?
CHELA structures the output automatically so you can easily copy and paste the formatted data directly into your preferred construction management software.
Does it understand construction terminology?
Absolutely. It accurately transcribes industry-specific terms, materials, and equipment names, from "rebar" to "telehandler".
What happens if I lose cell service on site?
You can continue recording offline. CHELA will securely sync and transcribe your voice notes automatically the moment you regain connectivity.

A Chela note does not certify an inspection, create a signed safety report or replace an urgent on-site escalation. Keep formal records and evidence in the required system.
