Frequently asked questions
- How much does risk assessment software cost?
- It ranges from free (limited templates) to five-figure annual contracts for enterprise EHS suites. As a guide: HASpod's Documents Plan is £799/yr (~£67/mo) plus VAT, SafetyCulture Premium is ~£19/user/mo (billed annually), and EcoOnline is quote-only. Riskora sits in the middle at £29/mo flat with guided generation, industry-specific hazard libraries, document QA and the wider safety-documentation suite (RAMS, method statements, site inductions, toolbox talks, training register).
- Does Riskora only work for construction?
- No. Riskora ships with industry presets for construction, archaeology, utilities, landscaping and general builders, plus an 'Other' option with custom hazards for any specialist trade. The hazard libraries, terminology and method steps adapt to the industry you select.
- Does Riskora do more than risk assessments?
- Yes. The same subscription generates risk assessments, full RAMS (Risk Assessments + Method Statements), standalone method statements, COSHH sections, site inductions with a printable poster and QR sign-on flow, toolbox talks, site briefings and a training register — all from the same guided builder and hazard libraries.
- Can a team use Riskora together?
- Yes. Riskora supports multiple organisations per account with role-based access (owner / admin / editor / viewer), version history, review locking on signed-off documents, audit logging on all destructive actions, and SAML SSO for larger teams. Pricing stays flat — no per-user fees.
