New Zealand's First AI-Powered Digital Workmate for Construction Injury Prevention.
A groundbreaking, free AI-powered digital workmate designed to empower construction workers to self-manage discomfort, pain, and musculoskeletal injury risk directly on the job. Developed in New Zealand for the unique demands of our kiwi tradies

For too long, pain has been treated as just part of the job. We knew it was time to change that, and to create a smarter, simpler way to help workers stay strong and recover well. That's why BetterWorxTM developed PainPal, a first-of-its-kind digital companion for the construction industry, built on research, industry insight, and direct feedback from tradies.

PainPal™ gives your organisation anonymised, actionable insights into worker discomfort trends so you can target the tasks, tools, and environments that need attention most.
