Why we built riskgu.
We believe every team deserves simple, affordable safety tools. No matter how small.
It started with a simple question
Why do small and medium businesses struggle with safety software? The answer wasn't that they didn't care about protecting their teams. It was that every solution was built for enterprises with dedicated safety departments and massive budgets.
Growing businesses were left with two choices: expensive, overcomplicated systems they'd never fully use, or risky workarounds with spreadsheets and WhatsApp photos that wouldn't hold up when it mattered.
A different approach
We partnered with safety specialists who'd spent years watching small teams struggle with paperwork and outdated systems. Together, we're building something different. Tools that work on building sites, not just boardrooms. Software that helps at 6am on a wet Tuesday, not just during quarterly reviews.
But here's what makes riskgu truly different: we're building it with you. Every feature, every update comes from real feedback from real teams doing real work.
Community at the core
Our early access users aren't just testing software. They're shaping it. When a facilities manager in Manchester said they needed offline inspections, we built it. When a construction firm needed simpler incident reporting, we redesigned it. When multiple users asked for the same dataset features, we prioritised it.
This isn't our platform. It's yours.
What drives us
Every unreported near miss is a potential accident. Every paper form lost is evidence gone. Every overcomplicated system is another small business going without proper safety protection.
We're here to change that. Because we believe that good safety practices shouldn't depend on your company size or software budget. They should depend on having the right tools for the job.
