Taking a simple idea into a global thriving business Luke Hansen
Luke Hansen is the Founder and CEO of the construction industry software, CompanyCam. CompanyCam started in 2015 and now serves tens of thousands of contractors across the globe and has been used to document information in the field for over 5 million projects to date.
Having been in the roofing business for over 15 years, Luke has been a contractor at his family’s roofing company far longer than he’s been a tech founder. Luke has worn nearly every hat at White Castle Roofing–a Top 100 Roofing Company–from installer to marketing director, and he’s no stranger to the hard work up on a roof. If it happens in roofing, he has seen it all.
Luke has always had a passion for technology, especially when it intersects with roofing. As a fan of cryptocurrency before it was popularized in the major media, he made headlines when he established White Castle Roofing as the first roofing company in the country to accept BitCoin in 2013. A year later, he was also one of the first in the industry to use drones to streamline White Castle’s operations and improve safety for its employees.
In 2015, he built the first CompanyCam prototype as yet another solution to solve a problem White Castle was facing with streamlining their job site photo documentation as each project moved from bid to install to quality inspection. After the raving initial reviews of CompanyCam were in from White Castle employees, Luke saw a much larger opportunity to serve contracting companies across the country and pursued CompanyCam full time.
Today CompanyCam employs over 35 full time team members in Lincoln, NE, holds over 97 million job site photos taken at over 5 million projects, and has quickly become the go-to tool for contractors everywhere.
When Luke isn’t at the office he’s golfing, spending time with his kids, or offering unsolicited political opinions.
