Our Story

Built by People Who've
Actually Done the Work

Safety Brief wasn't built in a boardroom. It was built by two guys from the trades who kept hearing the same problem from contractors across the country.

A Problem Every Contractor Knows

Safety Brief didn't start with a business plan. It started with a conversation between two guys who spent years in the trades and kept hearing the same thing from contractors: safety training was something everyone knew they needed, but nobody had time to do right.

Jamie kept hearing it from the employers around him. Jason was hearing it from the business owners and contractors he works with every day in real estate. We talked to company owners across the country who all said the same thing — they wanted something done for them, something their crews would actually engage with, and something that might help with their insurance costs.

So we built it. Safety Brief is the service we kept wishing someone would build — and when no one did, we did it ourselves.

Who's Behind Safety Brief

Jason Ferrando
Co-Founder

Jason started in the trades at 16 as a plumbing apprentice, then spent years in underground utilities — laying pipe, pouring concrete, operating heavy equipment, and drilling wells. He went on to spend seven years at Boeing as a pneumatic pressure test sealer and painter on commercial aircraft, where safety documentation wasn't optional — it was the job.

After transitioning into home lending and then real estate, Jason now helps clients buy, sell, and invest in property nationwide. It was through those contractor relationships that the idea for Safety Brief came together.

"Every contractor I talk to in real estate says the same thing — they know they need consistent safety training, they just don't have time to do it right. That's exactly why we built Safety Brief."

Jamie Rogers
Co-Founder

Jamie is a licensed plumber who built his career from the ground up. He owned and operated his own plumbing company — which means he knows firsthand what it's like to be responsible for keeping a crew safe, staying compliant, and running a business at the same time.

He currently works as a plumber for a school district, where facilities safety and documented training are part of daily operations. When Jamie started hearing employers talk about the gap in accessible, affordable safety training, he knew exactly what they meant — and what a real solution had to look like.

"I've run my own crew. I know what it takes to keep people safe and still get the job done. Safety Brief is the tool I wished I had."

The Problem We Kept Seeing

Most safety training is too expensive, too generic, or too much work. Contractors told us they wanted something that showed up every week, spoke to their crews in their language, and gave them the documentation to back it up.
