"Transform hours of paperwork into minutes of simple conversation"
We understand the reality of a firefighter's day. Between responding to calls, maintaining equipment, training, and all the other essential duties that keep your community safe, the last thing you want to face is hours of incident report documentation. Yet we also know that in today's legal environment, thorough and accurate documentation isn't just important—it's absolutely critical. Poor documentation can have severe impacts on litigation outcomes, insurance claims, and departmental credibility.
That's why we've developed our AI-powered NFIRS Documentation feature specifically for fire service personnel who need to produce excellent documentation without sacrificing precious time. We're asking you to reimagine the entire incident reporting process. Instead of spending 30-60 minutes (or more) clicking through dropdown menus, typing detailed narratives, and struggling to remember every detail while staring at blank fields, what if you could simply talk about your incident the way you naturally would?
Our system transforms what has traditionally been one of the most time-consuming administrative tasks in the fire service into something as simple as giving a verbal briefing. By combining advanced speech-to-text technology with intelligent AI processing specifically trained for fire service operations, we're turning the dreaded incident report into a natural conversation that produces professional, comprehensive, litigation-ready documentation.
The Old Reality Every firefighter knows the drill. You've just finished a challenging structure fire, your gear is still steaming, your crew is exhausted, but there's still one more critical task ahead—the incident report. You sit down at a computer, stare at dozens of empty fields, dropdown menus, and text boxes, trying to recall every detail while the information is still fresh. What should be a 10-minute summary turns into an hour-long ordeal of clicking, typing, and second-guessing whether you've captured everything accurately enough to withstand scrutiny months or years later in a courtroom.
The New Possibility Now imagine this instead: You sit down, click one button, and simply talk about what happened. You describe the incident naturally, the way you'd brief a chief officer or hand off information to a relieving crew. You speak for 5-10 minutes, covering everything from dispatch information to final scene conditions. The system listens, understands fire service terminology, and automatically organizes your verbal report into a complete, professional NFIRS-compliant document with properly populated fields and a detailed narrative that reads like it was written by an experienced fire officer.
Why This Transformation Matters In today's litigious environment, documentation quality can make or break your department's position in legal proceedings. Incomplete reports, missed details, or inconsistent information can have severe consequences during litigation, insurance investigations, or regulatory reviews. At the same time, firefighters are being asked to do more with less time, handling increasing call volumes while maintaining the same high standards for documentation.
Our AI system bridges this gap perfectly. It helps ensure comprehensive, consistent documentation while dramatically reducing the time burden on your personnel. Instead of choosing between thorough documentation and reasonable time investment, you can have both.
Speak Naturally, Document Professionally Instead of filling out countless fields and dropdown menus, simply speak about your incident as you would during a size-up report or handoff to a relieving officer. The system understands fire service terminology, abbreviations, and the natural flow of how firefighters communicate about incidents.
Comprehensive Data Processing Our AI processes a wide range of incident information including:
Intelligent Field Mapping After analyzing your verbal report, the system automatically populates appropriate NFIRS data fields and generates a professionally formatted narrative. You maintain complete control over the final document through our comprehensive review and editing interface.
Launch the AI Assistant directly from within any Fire Report by clicking the AI icon (which remains accessible throughout your documentation process). Click the Record button and begin speaking about your incident naturally.
Once you've finished speaking, you have full control over your transcription. You can edit directly in the text box, continue recording additional information, or erase sections as needed. When satisfied, click Analyze to process your information.
The system presents all extracted data in an organized review interface showing relevant incident information mapped to appropriate fields. You can accept, reject, edit, or remove any suggestions. The system also generates a formatted narrative based on your transcript that you can modify as needed.
After reviewing all suggestions and making any necessary adjustments, click Apply to map the data to your Fire Report fields. Complete the brief feedback survey to help us continue improving the system.

Before your personnel can use this powerful feature, administrators need to enable the appropriate permissions:
Once enabled, the AI icon will be available to authorized users within all Fire Reports.
Speak Clearly and Completely: Think of your verbal report as combining your initial size-up, handoff report, and incident summary. The more complete information you provide, the less manual entry you'll need later.
Use Your Natural Terminology: The system understands fire service language, so use the terms and abbreviations you're comfortable with.
Always Review Before Applying: While our AI is sophisticated, you remain responsible for accuracy. Use the review interface to verify all suggestions before accepting them.
Leverage Multiple Recordings: You can record multiple times during complex incidents. Each new recording will append to your narrative, allowing you to build comprehensive documentation progressively.
Provide Feedback: Use our feedback system to report terminology that wasn't interpreted correctly or suggest improvements. This helps us continuously enhance the system for all users.
Multiple Input Methods: While designed for voice input, you can also type directly into the Record box if preferred, though formatting may differ in the final narrative.
Incremental Documentation: For complex or extended incidents, you can use the AI tool multiple times, with each session adding new sections to your existing narrative.
Comprehensive Editing Tools: Every aspect of the AI-generated content can be modified, from individual field entries to the complete narrative structure.
Integrated Feedback Loop: Our built-in feedback system (which you can opt out of at any time) helps us continuously improve accuracy and add new terminology recognition.
We get it. You became a firefighter to save lives and protect property, not to spend hours each shift wrestling with incident reports. But we also understand that in today's world, exceptional documentation isn't optional—it's essential for protecting your department, your personnel, and your community's interests.
This isn't about replacing proper fire incident documentation—it's about revolutionizing how it gets done. We're talking about reducing typical documentation time by 70-80% while actually improving the quality and comprehensiveness of your reports. Instead of dreading the paperwork that follows every significant call, you can now handle documentation as efficiently as you handle the incident itself.
The AI-powered NFIRS Documentation feature represents a fundamental shift in how fire service personnel can approach incident reporting. We're eliminating the false choice between spending adequate time on documentation and having time for other critical duties. With this system, thorough documentation becomes a natural part of your post-incident routine rather than a burden that extends your already long shifts.
When litigation comes—and unfortunately, it often does—you'll have detailed, professional documentation that accurately captures what happened, when it happened, and why specific decisions were made. The difference is that creating this level of documentation will have taken minutes instead of hours, and the process will have felt like a natural debriefing rather than an administrative chore.
Contact your system administrator to ensure the AI generation permission is enabled for your role, then look for the AI icon in your next Fire Report. Experience firsthand how speaking about an incident can automatically become a complete, professional NFIRS-compliant document.
