Before you start
Be Safe Co-Pilot maturity L0 · 14 module pages in the catalogue, all of which open. Two capabilities are missing rather than gated pages: the UK coverage map holds authority evidence for 0 of 44 areas, so it publishes no coverage, and the WhatsApp page only drafts a message in your own app because no managed messaging channel is switched on. None of the fourteen has been engineering-validated or signed off by a competent person.
What it can do
- Answer questions about UK fire safety legislation, Approved Documents and British Standards in general terms.
- Point you to the relevant statutory instrument, Approved Document or standard to read next.
- Help you structure a question before you speak to a qualified fire engineer.
- Hand you over to an initial consultation with the Magnus Opifex Seven team.
What it does not do
- It does not carry out a statutory fire risk assessment and does not sign, approve or certify anything.
- It does not give legal advice and is not a regulator, certifier or approved inspector.
- It does not replace project-specific fire engineering judgement by a competent professional.
- It does not see your building, drawings or documents and cannot review them.
- It does not make decisions for you and does not act on your behalf.
Emergencies
