The Melbourne startup began with pandemic check-ins, listened when contractors asked for more, and built an annual subscription around the least glamorous - and most consequential - work on a jobsite.
Perry Weather
Perry Weather is a Dallas-based weather safety and operations platform that pairs on-site weather stations with software to help organizations monitor lightning, heat stress (WBGT), and air quality, automate their safety policies, and keep a compliance-ready record. Founded in 2013 by meteorologist Colin Perry, it serves thousands of schools, cities, golf courses, athletic programs, and industrial firms - including work with the PGA of America - and has delivered tens of millions of real-time safety alerts.
CompScience
CompScience is a San Francisco-based insurtech that runs computer vision and generative AI on a company's existing security cameras to spot more than 50 workplace hazards before they become injuries. It pairs that 'Visual AI' safety analytics with an active commercial workers' compensation insurance product, rewarding employers who act on the data with better insurance economics. The company says its system gives safety leaders roughly 300 times more data than a traditional walkthrough inspection, and it has set a public goal of preventing one million workplace injuries by 2035.
