Building Forensics has launched JeffCharlton.AI, an intelligent advisory platform offering reliable guidance on mould, indoor bacteria and building-related environmental contamination.
Mould and indoor environmental illness are increasingly linked to rising cases of respiratory disease, cognitive impairment, chronic fatigue and systemic inflammation around the world. Health authorities including the World Health Organization have cautioned that failure to properly identify environmental illness may lead to “the great masquerade of the 21st century,” with significant public health and economic impact.
At the same time, the internet has become saturated with conflicting advice, unverified “expert” claims and poor-quality remediation practices, leaving many homeowners and professionals uncertain where to turn.
Jeff Charlton — widely acknowledged as the UK’s foremost authority on mould inspection and decontamination — has now consolidated more than 40 years of experience into JeffCharlton.AI.
The platform utilises a database of more than 179,000 documents and over 31 million words of verified technical and peer-reviewed research, covering mould diagnostics, bacterial contamination, water damage, fire recovery, building-related illness (BRI), CIRS and global remediation protocols.
Users can ask questions by typing or speaking, receiving clear, practical responses grounded in science and real-world casework.
A free trial phase is available now, with low-cost subscription access to follow, aimed at tenants, homeowners, housing services, insurers, contractors and medical professionals seeking clarity in a complex field.
Jeff Charlton, a Chartered Institute of Environmental Health qualified professional, is founder of Building Forensics and a leading international specialist in mould and environmental decontamination. His experience includes developing protocols for the US Army Corps of Engineers, co-authoring ‘Surviving Mold,’ and advising the SHEER technical committee in Switzerland on chemical and biological incident response.
Jeff Charlton said: “People are being misled every day by search engine results and marketing claims. JeffCharlton.AI changes that – it puts decades of real science, field data, and professional experience directly into the public’s hands.“Business coaching has alerted me to the incredible opportunities of automated management through CRM and now AI. This chat box was all made possible by AI Dilan, (Dilan Abeya) who isn’t just my tech provider but his care and quest for perfection has seen the development of something truly remarkable. An honest integrity matched to an unbelievable patience in getting the luddite in me into AI. If Dilan can help me, he can help anyone!”
JeffCharlton.AI is now available for public trial via buildingforensics.co.uk.
