Know your rights.
Record what matters.

When it all kicks off at work — be ready.

Most workers facing a disciplinary, absence review, or grievance are completely on their own. No rep available. No record of what was said. No idea what their rights are. Stewrd is a confidential AI companion — a knowledgeable Shop Steward in your pocket — that documents your case as it unfolds, explains your rights in plain English, and builds you something solid to stand on before it's too late.

Why Stewrd exists

Most workers only realise they needed a record when it's already too late.

Stewrd came from real workplace cases — disciplinaries, absence reviews, grievances, redundancy meetings, pay disputes, and the conversations that happen before anything becomes formal.

Again and again, the same problem appeared: workers often had a fair point, but no clear record or structure to it. They couldn't remember exactly what was said. They didn't have the letter to hand. Key dates were missing. The order of events had become blurred.

That matters, because in workplace disputes, evidence is leverage. A clear timeline, the right documents, and a calm account of what happened can change the whole conversation.

Stewrd was built from that gap. The name is a deliberate nod to Shop Steward — the workplace rep role that inspired it. It is not a replacement for a union rep, solicitor, or proper advice. It is the tool that helps you get things down properly before the detail is lost.

"Poor record-keeping means it's your word against theirs — and that's a fight most workers lose before it even starts."

What Stewrd does

Everything you need the day it goes wrong. Nothing you don't.

Stewrd covers the situations workers actually face — disciplinaries, absence reviews, grievances, bullying, pay disputes, parental leave, and more. Tell it what's happening in your own words and it does the heavy lifting alongside you.

Your rights, in plain English

Ask Stewrd anything about your situation. It draws on UK employment law — the Employment Rights Act, Equality Act 2010, ACAS codes of practice — and explains what applies to you, in language a knowledgeable colleague would use. Not a lawyer. Not a textbook.

Automatic case recording

As you chat, key facts are captured and confirmed into a structured timeline. No formal log to write, no notes to take. Stewrd builds the record as you go — dated, clear, and in order.

Evidence that actually connects

Attach letters, fit notes, emails, or photos directly to your case. Stewrd reads them, confirms what they mean for your situation, and makes sure nothing important gets missed or buried.

Case pack — one tap

When things escalate, generate a professional PDF timeline in seconds. Everything in order, with dates, confirmed facts, and evidence. Ready to hand to your rep, HR, or a solicitor.

Secure and confidential

Your case data is stored securely with full user isolation — only you can access it. No employer, no third party, and not even Stewrd can read your records unless you choose to export them.

Built from lived experience

Not designed in a boardroom. Built by someone who spent 6 years sitting with members in the worst moments of their working lives. Stewrd is also useful for reps themselves — a union officer consulted during development called it excellent for timeline documentation when supporting members.

Getting started

Simple enough to open the day it all kicks off.

When something happens at work, the last thing you need is a complicated new app. Stewrd gets out of the way.

See it in action

Your situation.
Clearly laid out.

What was said doesn't disappear

Stewrd captures key points as you go. What your manager said. What you were told. What outcome was mentioned. All timestamped, all yours.

A timeline builds itself

Each conversation adds to a growing record — so when things escalate, you have a clear, structured account rather than a mess of memory and notes.

Serious issue? Serious paperwork.

One tap generates a complete case pack. Dated evidence. Confirmed facts. Ready to hand to whoever needs to see it.

On unions

Stewrd isn't anti-employer.
And it isn't a replacement for your union.

Unions matter. Collective representation, negotiated agreements, reps who know your workplace and your rights — that's irreplaceable. If you're not in a union, join one. Stewrd will tell you the same thing. It even has a built-in union directory to help you find the right one for your sector.

But there's a gap that exists for every worker: the moment something happens and your rep isn't available. The disciplinary letter that lands on a Friday afternoon. The informal chat with your manager that turns out to be anything but. The conversation where something was said that you know — in your gut — you'll need to remember later.

By the time most workers find their rep, the timeline is already fuzzy. The key facts are mixed up with the emotion of it all. Stewrd exists to fix that — capturing what happened, when, and what was said, so that when your rep does arrive, you hand them something they can actually work with.

Not instead of a union. Alongside one.
