Why
Why fatigue monitoring matters
Long days, early starts and night shifts are the rhythm of agriculture, mining and transport — and fatigue is the quiet factor sitting behind a large share of the worst outcomes. Vehicles are now the leading cause of death on Australian farms1, and tiredness makes every one of those jobs more dangerous; it slows reactions and clouds judgement well before a person feels unsafe to drive2.
That's the trap. The most fatigued people are often the least able to tell. You need a reading that doesn't rely on someone putting their hand up.
Extracted from just 45 seconds of voice — a medical-grade fatigue assessment that fits inside a daily check.
How it works
How voice-based fatigue monitoring works
A world-first approach, built on technology originally developed for the defence industry.
Speak for 45 seconds
The worker does a short voice check in the AirAgri app — online, or fully offline in the field.
AI reads the signal
Defence-origin AI extracts more than 2,000 biomarkers from those few seconds of speech.
Fatigue is scored
Subtle changes in physical behaviour — picked up by the voice analysis and the Bush Beacon — are turned into a clear fatigue reading.
Act before the shift
A high reading is a prompt to intervene — swap the driver, delay the run, send someone home — before anything happens.
What you get
What you get
Medical-grade voice assessment
A fatigue reading from 45 seconds of speech — far beyond a self-rating or a tick-box.
Works offline in the field
Run the check on the AirAgri mobile app with no coverage at all.
Objective, not optional
A reading that doesn't depend on a tired person judging their own state.
Built on defence-grade AI
World-first technology originally designed for the defence industry, now in the bush.
Intervene before incidents
Spot the high-risk moment in time to change what happens next.
Where it fits
Built for the way you work.
For any operation where tired people operate machinery or drive long distances — agriculture, mining, transport and civil.
