What's new

New features and improvements shipped to GearTracker, month after month.

October 2026

Your logo on every plan, Free included

Every organization can now upload its logo, whatever its plan. It appears on your dashboard, on your PDF reports and on your incident reporting posters, so your teams immediately recognize their own workspace.

Create equipment straight from a model

From a model's page, create a new item already filled in with its brand, category, references, documents and photos. The models list search now also finds models in the catalogue.

  • Bug fixes and general improvements

September 2026

Report and follow up on incidents

Hazardous situations, near misses, damage: anyone can report an incident in under a minute, with its severity, photos and the equipment involved, and can choose to stay anonymous. Printable QR code posters even let people without an account report. Administrators then follow up with the people involved, corrective actions with due dates and a status for each incident, and set their reporting deadlines from a country preset.

The GearTracker assistant (beta)

Ask your questions in plain language right in the app: which items are due for inspection, who is missing a training, where an item is. The assistant can also act for you after your confirmation, always with your own permissions. Drop in an Excel or CSV equipment file and it imports it for you.

Compliance dashboard with history

Trainings, inspections, medical visits and incidents on one page, by site, with their trend over 30, 90 or 365 days.

Switch modules on or off

Administrators choose which modules their organization uses: incidents, trainings, authorizations, medical visits and documents.

August 2026

Track your employees' occupational-health visits

Set up your visit types with their frequency and assign them to the employees concerned. Record each visit with the fitness opinion, any restriction and the certificate: the next due date is calculated for you, and the employee is emailed as it approaches and if it is missed. An “unfit” opinion makes the employee non-compliant straight away. No medical data is stored, only fitness and restrictions.

Manage authorizations: forklift, electrical, work at height

Build your own catalogue of authorizations with their validity in years and who issues them, then record each employee's with the PDF certificate. Link an authorization to the training that justifies it: if the training lapses, the authorization is flagged too. Email alerts as the renewal date approaches.

Share your documents and get proof they were read

Publish your risk assessment, a procedure or a safety data sheet to everyone or to one folder. Recipients are emailed and confirm in one click that they have read it, and you see who has and who hasn't. Every update creates a new version and the history stays available.

Find your equipment again with geolocation

Mobile app

On Android and iOS, scanning an item's NFC tag or QR code now records where it was scanned. The equipment page then shows where it was last seen, with a link that opens your phone's maps app. The position stays inside your organization and never appears on an item's public page.

July 2026

Multi-scan for faster PPE inspections

On web, Android and iOS, quickly scan NFC tags or QR codes, or use a simple search, to build an equipment list. Then launch bulk workflows such as inspections, assignments and other mass changes much faster.

Track repairs for each item

Record every repair directly from the equipment page. Track the work carried out, its status, severity and cost to keep a clear maintenance history for every item.

Create your own custom models

Create reusable equipment models with photos, documents, descriptions and default information. When you add new equipment, the model fills in the details for you so you can create items much faster without entering the same data again.
