What is Legis-Link?

Legis-Link is an AI-powered construction compliance reference tool built for tradespeople, foremen, and project managers who need accurate code answers on site — without carrying the standard, calling the office, or waiting for an engineer.

You open a browser on your phone, pick your trade and region, type a compliance question in plain English, and get the exact standard reference back in seconds. Nothing to install, no account required for the free tier, works on any phone.

"Wrong cable size on a 30-metre run is a full rework. Legis-Link answers the cable sizing question before you pull the cable — not after."

The global construction management software market is projected to expand at 9.1% CAGR from 2026 to 2036, but almost all of that growth is in enterprise platforms. 41% of mid-size contractors still manage safety compliance primarily through paper forms and spreadsheets. Legis-Link targets the gap between those two realities.

1. Compliance check

Ask whether any installation, material, or practice is compliant. Get the exact standard and clause that answers it.

Example:

Q: Is 2.5mm² TPS cable compliant for a 20A circuit in a wall cavity NSW?

● COMPLIANT — 2.5mm² copper TPS is compliant for a 20A circuit in a 
standard wall cavity, provided ambient temperature does not exceed 40°C 
and cables are not grouped with more than 2 other circuits without derating.

Ref: AS/NZS 3008.1.1:2017 Table 4; AS/NZS 3000:2018 Clause 3.5

2. Code reference lookup

Look up specific standards, clause numbers, tables, and regulatory requirements by topic.

3. Daily toolbox talks

A different pre-start safety briefing for every trade, every day. 70 topics across 10 trades rotating daily. Free preview in app. Pro users download a printable PDF with crew sign-off register.

Pro Tier ($199/year)

4. Technical calculations

Cable sizing, pipe sizing, voltage drop, heat load calculations with derating factors applied.

Q: Cable size for 45A load, 30m run, 240V single phase, clipped direct NSW

● COMPLIANT — 10mm² copper conductor required.
Working: 45A at 30m on 240V gives VD = 1.97% — within 3% sub-circuit limit.

Ref: AS/NZS 3008.1.1:2017 Table C1; AS/NZS 3000:2018 Clause 3.6.2

5. Safety checklist

Numbered PPE and hazard control checklist for any task with specific regulation cited per item. Audit-ready in under a minute.

6. RAMS generator

Full Risk Assessment and Method Statement in 60 seconds — hazard register with risk ratings, numbered method statement, required qualifications. All with regulation citations. A qualified foreman producing a RAMS manually takes 2-4 hours.

7. Material compliance

COMPLIANT / NON-COMPLIANT verdict on any material or product before ordering.

Q: Is 6mm² XLPE single core cable approved for underground installation NSW?

● NON-COMPLIANT for direct burial. XLPE single core requires mechanical 
protection (conduit or armoured cable) for underground installation.

Ref: AS/NZS 3000:2018 Clause 3.10; AS/NZS 3013:2005

8. Inspection requirements

Every hold point, sign-off authority, certificate type, and form number for any installation. Prevents the most expensive mistake in construction: covering work before mandatory inspection.

9. Visual compliance (photo upload) — unique in market

Upload a site photo for AI-powered preliminary compliance assessment. No other construction compliance tool on the market accepts site photos for compliance assessment.
