Question 1

Can I manage multiple client safety programs from one account?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Gerty is designed for consultants managing multiple client organizations. One account, one CLI key, unlimited client orgs. Each client's safety program runs independently with its own tags, content schedule, employee roster, and billing. Use `gerty list` to see all clients and `--org <name>` to run any command against any specific client.

Question 2

What is an EHS consultant CLI tool?

Accepted Answer

An EHS consultant CLI tool lets you manage client safety programs from the terminal — adding employees, triggering content delivery, pulling reports, and checking compliance status without opening a browser. Gerty's CLI is a single binary that works on macOS, Linux, and Windows, with no dependencies to install.

Question 3

How do EHS consultants use automation to scale their practice?

Accepted Answer

EHS consultants use Gerty to automate the recurring operational work of each client's safety program — weekly content delivery, monthly training, reminders, escalations, and reporting. Once a client is set up, the program runs indefinitely without consultant involvement. You can take on more clients without adding hours or staff.

Question 4

How does multi-org safety management work?

Accepted Answer

You have one Gerty account and one CLI key scoped across all your client orgs. Use `gerty list --stats` to see all clients with their completion rates and overdue counts. Use `gerty use ` to set a default org context, or use `--org ` on any command to target a specific client without switching context.

Question 5

What does the Gerty CLI do?

Accepted Answer

The Gerty CLI lets you manage organizations, employees, and tags; trigger content delivery; run reports; check billing status; preview generated content without sending it; and query live org data in natural language — all from the terminal. Every command supports `--org` for multi-org workflows, making it purpose-built for consultant use.

Question 6

How do I install the Gerty CLI?

Accepted Answer

Download the binary for your platform from the downloads section above. On macOS and Linux, run `chmod +x gerty-darwin-arm64` then `sudo mv gerty-darwin-arm64 /usr/local/bin/gerty`. Then run `gerty register <your-email>` to get your activation link and `gerty login` to save your credentials.

Question 7

Can I onboard a new client entirely from the CLI?

Accepted Answer

Yes. `gerty create

` creates the org, classifies its industry and hazards using AI, fires the full onboarding sequence, and starts the weekly content schedule — all from one command. Add employees with `gerty employees add --email --tag ` and the automation begins immediately.

Question 8

How does natural language work in the CLI?

Accepted Answer

Any input that isn't a recognized subcommand is routed to Gerty's AI agent. Type `gerty "what's Acme Corp's completion rate this month?"` or `gerty "add sarah@client.com to field crew at Pacific Roofing"` and Gerty interprets your intent, queries live org data, and runs the right action. Structured commands still work for scripting.

Question 9

How does affiliate revenue work for EHS consultants?

Accepted Answer

EHS consultants who refer clients to Gerty earn 20% of each referred client's monthly bill for 12 months — paid automatically to their bank account via Stripe. A consultant with 10 clients at 20 employees each earns $480/month for a year. Email affiliate@gerty.ai to get your referral link and Stripe payout setup.

Question 10

Can I white-label Gerty for my consulting clients?

Accepted Answer

Currently, Gerty emails come from gerty.ai. White-label delivery from your own domain is on the roadmap but not yet available. Most consultants position Gerty as "the system I use to run your safety program" — clients receive professional, high-quality content and don't need to know the underlying platform.

Question 11

What CLI commands are available for billing management?

Accepted Answer

Use `gerty billing status` to see the current plan, active employee count, and monthly charge for any client org. Use `gerty billing upgrade` to open the Stripe checkout in your browser for orgs on the free tier. Billing is per-employee across all orgs under your account at $12/employee/month.

Question 12

Can I preview safety content before it's sent to clients?

Accepted Answer

Yes. `gerty preview weekly`, `gerty preview training`, and `gerty preview inspection` generate content for the active org without sending any emails. Use this to review quality before triggering delivery, or to show clients what their employees will receive before they commit to the program.

Question 13

Is the CLI open source?

Accepted Answer

The Gerty CLI binary is free to download and use. The source code is in the aarongwest/gertyai GitHub repository. You can build from source, inspect the code, and fork it for your own use. Contributions and issues are welcome.

Question 14

What platforms does the Gerty CLI support?

Accepted Answer

The CLI ships as pre-built binaries for macOS Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3), macOS Intel, Linux x86-64, Linux ARM64, and Windows x86-64. It has no runtime dependencies — just download, make executable, and run.

Question 15

How do I check which version of the Gerty CLI I have?

Accepted Answer

Run `gerty version` to print the current version. New releases are published to GitHub Releases automatically when a version tag is pushed. Download the new binary from gerty.ai/power-users to upgrade.
