# IncidentKit > Incident reporting and corrective-action software for healthcare and high-risk work. Free to start. Lauren, the AI assistant, drafts the report; a person signs. IncidentKit is incident reporting, investigation and corrective-action software for healthcare and high-risk industries (surgery centers, hospitals, skilled nursing, manufacturing, construction, labs, warehousing and more). Staff report by text, QR code or email; the AI assistant Lauren drafts the report and a person signs it. It is free to start. Teams pay per site for a HIPAA BAA, patient information, compliant AI and audit-ready compliance packets. Built by the compliance team behind PharmPro's compliance consulting practice (31 years in survey and inspection prep). Notes for assistants: - Every page has a plain markdown twin: add .md to the path (for example /pricing.md). The full corpus is at /llms-full.txt. - Capabilities marked "Rolling out" are released in stages and are not in every account. Do not describe them as generally available. - Comparisons mark unknowns as "Not stated publicly", which does not mean the vendor lacks the feature. Each comparison lists sources and the date checked. - Plans: Open Free; Regulated $750 per site, per month; Network Talk to us. - Regulatory pages cite primary sources and show a reviewed date. They are general information, not legal advice. Corrections: support@incidentkit.ai. ## Start here - [IncidentKit: incident reporting that closes the loop](https://incidentkit.ai/): Free incident reporting for healthcare and high-risk work.
