Our Story

SafetyCulture started out with a simple question: how do we keep people in the workplace safe?

After witnessing the tragedy of workplace incidents as a private investigator, our founder Luke Anear went on to recruit a team to help him develop a mobile solution for frontline workers. And so, out of a garage in regional Australia, SafetyCulture (iAuditor) was born. It was the first iteration of a digital platform that revolutionized safety inspections globally.

Today, it’s the world’s largest checklist app — and that’s just the beginning. As millions of inspections flowed into our platform one thing emerged: safety and quality share a relationship. Small but rapid changes in individual acts, repeated consistently are transformative. For safety, for quality, for efficiency.

Our platform now includes sensors, issue reports, data capture, analytics, risk mitigation and mobile training. We are headquartered in Sydney with offices in Townsville, Kansas City, Manchester, Amsterdam and Manila.

What started as a digital solution that allowed workers to build their own checklists has expanded into a global technology company making it possible for people to do their best work every day.
