Making High-Risk Work Safer Through Smart Equipment Management
Scannable is on a mission to make working at height safer and simpler.
Focused on industries like arboriculture, rope access, rigging and rescue, Scannable provides intuitive, digital tools that eliminate manual paperwork, streamline compliance, and make it easier for teams to inspect, manage and trust their gear.
By connecting equipment with smart, scannable data and reminders, the platform helps users make informed decisions without guesswor, supporting safety, transparency and accountability across high-risk environments.
Built by Industry Insiders, for the Vertical World
Scannable was founded in 2020 by Rob Stirling, who spent years designing safety equipment for global brands like DMM, Teufelberger and Edelrid. Rob saw a clear gap: equipment users were often let down by clunky systems and paper trails that didn’t fit the realities of high-risk work.
He launched Scannable to bridge that gap, bringing together hands-on experience, a trusted network of manufacturers and retailers, and a deep understanding of the risks faced by the people who use this gear every day.
Why Scannable Is a Great Place to Work
Built by People Who Get It From the workshop to the mountain peak, Scannable’s founders and team know the gear, know the risks, and know what matters. That knowledge shapes everything they build.
Growing Globally Based in New Zealand with global partnerships and customers, Scannable blends technical innovation with a practical, grounded culture that reflects its alpine roots.
