Pain Pal
New Zealand's first AI-powered digital workmate for construction injury prevention, built with CHASNZ and BetterWorx to help tradies get private, practical guidance before discomfort becomes injury.




In construction, pain is too often treated as part of the job. CHASNZ needed a simple, private tool that workers would actually use on site, while still giving organisations a way to see anonymised discomfort trends.
PainPal lets workers describe the task, tool, trade, and discomfort they are dealing with, then responds with evidence-backed tips, safety signals, and next steps tailored to real construction work.
The product gives individual workers a fast digital workmate in their pocket, while organisations can understand anonymised pain hotspots and target the tasks, tools, and environments that need attention.
