Why Atom exists

Built by someone who spent a lifetime in lab packing.

Atom is co-founded by Kevin Yerigan, who spent a lifetime in California hazardous waste and lab packing and was vice president of Haz Mat Services, Inc. in Anaheim, CA, before retiring after selling that company. That background is the reason Atom exists.

Meet Atom

Atom explains how it gets every drum right: rules decide, your techs confirm.

Read the transcript

Hi, I'm Atom, by INASNAP.

I help lab-pack techs get every drum right.

Every lab pack is different.

So I don't work from memory.

I decide by the rules.

Scan a label, type a name, or paste the whole list.

It all runs through one rules engine.

Each chemical is verified once, into a master catalog.

After that, it's a lookup.

Anything unknown goes to a tech for review.

Never a guess.

AI only reads labels and names.

It never decides a hazard class, or what's compatible.

Items share a drum only when shipping name, hazard class, compatibility group, and packing group all line up.

Packing Group One usually packs alone.

Big job? Two thousand items is fine.

Stop, resume, and add more later.

Every drum is rechecked on every change.

Every change is re-checked against the rules,

and a change that breaks one doesn't happen.

Then I draft your inventory sheets and the EPA manifest,

with shipping descriptions in DOT order, ready for your tech to confirm.

Rules decide.

Your techs confirm.

Every drum, every time.

How Atom works

From a pile of containers to a drum list your tech can confirm.

Identify

Scan a label, type a name, or paste the whole list. Each chemical is verified once into a master catalog; after that it's a lookup.

Segregate

Segregation follows DOT 49 CFR rules. Items share a drum only when shipping name, hazard class, compatibility group and packing group all line up.

Assign drums

Atom assigns drums and re-checks every drum on every change. A change that breaks a rule doesn't happen.

Draft the paperwork

Atom drafts inventory sheets and manifest lines, with shipping descriptions in DOT order, for a trained tech to confirm.

Where the AI stops

The rules engine decides. AI reads.

  • AI only reads labels and names. It never decides a hazard class or what's compatible.
  • One rules engine. Label scans, typed names and pasted lists all run through the same rules.
  • Never a guess. Anything unknown goes to a tech for review.
  • Re-checked on every change. Add, edit, move, merge or reload, and every drum is checked again.
Built for real jobs

Big jobs, stop and resume.

  • Large inventories. A job of two thousand items is fine.
  • Stop, resume, add more later. The drum plan stays consistent as the job grows.
  • A human on the paperwork. Drafts are for review by trained personnel; a tech confirms every drum and manifest line.
Status

In a supervised pilot.

Atom is currently in a supervised pilot. Atom's drafts are reviewed and confirmed by trained personnel. Atom does not replace your hazmat-trained staff or your own regulatory review.
