CompanyCam Ranks Among Highest-Scoring Businesses on Inc. Magazine’s Annual List of Best Workplaces for 2023
CompanyCam named among best workplaces.
Lincoln, NE, May 22, 2023 — CompanyCam has been named to Inc. magazine’s annual Best Workplaces list. Featured in the May/June 2023 issue, the list is the result of a comprehensive measurement of American companies that have excelled in creating exceptional workplaces and company culture.
CompanyCam is a photo-based communication tool trusted by over 140,000 contractors and pros to streamline their projects. Founded in 2015, CompanyCam has grown to over 200 employees between their Lincoln headquarters and remote locations across the country. Led by the never-a-dull-moment leadership of CEO Luke Hansen, they’ve experienced rapid growth while still prioritizing employee well-being. Their culture is anchored by their core team values — to show up, grow up, and do good — empowering employees to take work “the right amount of serious.”
“I think we’ve found a good balance between working hard, and not getting burnt out,” says Hansen. “We’ve already hired the smartest people around, so it’s important to create an environment that makes those people want to stay.”
After collecting data from thousands of submissions, Inc. selected 591 honorees this year. Each company that was nominated took part in an employee survey, conducted by Quantum Workplace, which included topics such as management effectiveness, perks, fostering employee growth, and overall company culture. The organization’s benefits were also audited to determine overall score and ranking.
“Being named to Best Workplaces is an honor that only a small fraction of companies have been able to claim,” says Inc. editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. “Proving to the world that you’re a magnet for talent and have a culture that keeps teams engaged, productive, and proud to come to work is a truly remarkable achievement.”

Roofr and CompanyCam Announce Integration Partnership
Roofr, the all-in-one sales platform for roof measurement reports and proposals, has integrated with CompanyCam.
Tuesday, July 12th – Roofr, the all-in-one sales platform for roof measurement reports and proposals, has integrated with CompanyCam, the photo-based project management cloud solution for contractors.
The highly-demanded integration between Roofr and CompanyCam will allow users to automatically sync images, roof reports, and proposals between softwares to close deals efficiently. This integration combines the power of an on-site property visit, with the ease of digital tools for contractors to quote and close their customers.
Now, when a contractor visits a project, they can take photos that are added to a CompanyCam project, which will allow them to upload those images directly to a Roofr Proposal. They can also create Jobs in Roofr from a CompanyCam project, so when a contractor orders a Roofr Report or a Proposal gets signed by a customer, those documents are automatically synced back to their CompanyCam project.
“This integration has been highly requested from our users for quite some time. CompanyCam is a huge player in our shared industry, and we know this will create an immensely positive impact for our users”. Said Richard Nelson, CEO of Roofr. “We want to provide users with the best experience possible, and this integration will bring together on-site and digital solutions for contractors everywhere”.
“We’re very excited to partner with Roofr this month. Very few integration partnerships unify the estimating, proposal and takeoff process as seamlessly as this software stack does.” Said Mike Knott, Sr Platform Partnerships at CompanyCam. “CompanyCam has always been the industry standard for photo and video capture, and when combined with Roofr’s estimating and proposal tools, you have everything you need to capture all the important data, out in the field, and put it together in an awesome proposal that will win our mutual customers more jobs.”
About Roofr
Built by roofers for roofers, Roofr is a SaaS platform that’s an all-in-one sales toolbox for roofing contractors. The company was founded by a third-generation roofer with a vision to build the most trusted roofing platform in the world. Roofr gives roofing contractors everything they need to save time, money, and close more business. They offer aerial images to generate highly accurate measurement reports, create estimates in minutes and generate beautiful proposals that customers can e‑sign with a click.

Jobber Partners with CompanyCam to Help Home Service Businesses Save Time Documenting Jobs
Jobber, a leading provider of home service management software, announces an integration with CompanyCam.
Toronto, ON — December 7, 2021 — Jobber, a leading provider of home service management software, today announced an integration with CompanyCam, an innovative photo documentation and communication app for contractors. Through the integration, service providers can take and share an unlimited number of photos with homeowners to keep them in the know, which will help service professionals capture details on job sites, communicate with crews, and keep clients informed without having to leave the Jobber platform.
“Documenting a job well done is an important part of running a great business, but is often time-consuming and can take time away from doing the actual work,” said Sam Pillar, CEO & co-founder of Jobber. “Teaming up with CompanyCam will help Jobber customers show off their great work, save more time in their day, and increase profitability by getting jobs done faster.”
As service providers race to keep up with unprecedented consumer demand, they are increasingly seeking ways to streamline business operations and grow revenue more quickly. Home service businesses can take advantage of this new partnership by connecting to the CompanyCam app in the Jobber app marketplace. Once connected, service professionals can snap, edit, and annotate photos in CompanyCam that automatically appear under the matching property address in Jobber. Pros will be able to easily include the images and annotations in the customer invoices while also highlighting project timelines, before-and-after photos, galleries, and reports.
“Partnering with Jobber is a no-brainer for us,” said Luke Hansen, founder and CEO of CompanyCam. “With this integration we can double down on everything our users value — effective documentation, organization, and visual-first communication.”
“My team is all too familiar with the painstaking time it takes to manually save job site photos, organize them into folders, and attach them where needed,” said Robert Pecher, owner of St. Louis-based Proper Home Maintenance. “The CompanyCam and Jobber integration is a big step in helping us streamline our workflow, records, and communication with customers. It allows us to take the ‘before’ photos while working on quotes, instantly attach them to jobs, save them in one place, and then easily add the ‘completed’ photos at the end of the job. Not only has this helped to improve the customer service experience, but it has also significantly impacted our operations. We’re eliminating an hour of labor for every job and dedicating less time to quotes that don’t move forward, saving nearly $1,000 each month in labor expenses and in some cases even allowing office staff to take off Friday afternoons.”
The CompanyCam integration is available to U.S. Jobber customers on the Connect and Grow membership plans. To learn more about the CompanyCam partnership and how service professionals can make the most of this partnership, visit: getjobber.com/integrations/companycam/

For the 2nd Time, CompanyCam Appears on the Inc. 5000, Ranking No. 629 With Three-Year Revenue Growth of 766 Percent
Inc. Magazine Reveals Annual List of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies — the Inc. 5000
NEW YORK, August 17, 2021 – Inc. magazine revealed today that CompanyCam is No. 629 on its annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment — independent small businesses. Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
“This accomplishment boils down to our people,” says Luke Hansen, Founder and CEO of CompanyCam. “They are the reason we are in this position, and I’m so proud of our explosive growth in this crazy year.”
Not only have the companies on the 2021 Inc. 5000 been very competitive within their markets, but this year’s list also proved especially resilient and flexible given 2020’s unprecedented challenges. Among the 5,000, the average median three-year growth rate soared to 543 percent — a number CompanyCam far surpassed at 766 percent — and median revenue reached $11.1 million. Together, those companies added more than 610,000 jobs over the past three years.
Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at inc.com/inc5000. The top 500 companies are featured in the September issue of Inc., which will be available on newsstands on August 20.
“The 2021 Inc. 5000 list feels like one of the most important rosters of companies ever compiled,” says Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc. “Building one of the fastest-growing companies in America in any year is a remarkable achievement. Building one in the crisis we’ve lived through is just plain amazing. This kind of accomplishment comes with hard work, smart pivots, great leadership, and the help of a whole lot of people.”

CompanyCam Secures $6M Investment
Nebraska-based construction startup set for growth and product development.
CompanyCam, the Lincoln-based documentation and communication app for contractors, has secured a $6M Series A funding round led by Blueprint Equity, a growth equity fund based in San Diego, CA.
When asked for a quote about the funding, Founder and CEO of CompanyCam, Luke Hansen replied only by reciting a line from one his favorite movies, Dumb and Dumber, “We’re really doing it Harry!”
This investment comes as CompanyCam celebrates its fifth year in business. With a solid and loyal user base, the construction-minded app will use the funds to accelerate its rapid growth, expand functionality, and grow its in-house and remote teams to meet consumer demands for additional features.
The news of this Series A investment accompanies another major announcement from CompanyCam — the app is now completely free for small companies — up to three users and fifty saved projects. Not only has CompanyCam released a free version of their product, they’ve also rolled out CompanyCam Pro. For $19/user per month, companies on CompanyCam Pro can have unlimited users and projects, as well as access to unlimited video capture and integration plug-ins for industry CRMs, invoicing software, and more.
“Letting customers use CompanyCam for free is key to our long-term vision of being the best way for contractors to work together in capturing field data and putting it to work,” says Levi Nelson, COO of CompanyCam. “It lowers the barrier for potential customers to see the value of CompanyCam and also paves the way for exciting collaborative enhancements to come.”
“We are very excited to be partners with CompanyCam,” says Bobby Ocampo, Managing Partner of Blueprint Equity. “The construction space – particularly the businesses CompanyCam serves – is massive yet highly fragmented; CompanyCam has grown tremendously serving small to medium-sized customers that have traditionally been underserved.”
CompanyCam is eager to keep momentum and continue to release new features, refine their core product, and continue growing — both their user base and their company in Lincoln, NE.

Lincoln, NE: In the wake of the massive and historic flooding that has taken place across Nebraska and Western Iowa, Lincoln-based startup, CompanyCam, is using its powerful photo documentation app to help its neighbors get back on their feet.
“It’s impossible to get on Facebook or watch the local news without being inundated by photos of complete destruction,” said Luke Hansen, Founder and CEO of CompanyCam. “We knew we needed to do something to help in any way we could.”
CompanyCam will be offering its service free for six months to anyone in the affected areas, allowing them to properly document any and all losses or damage, in order to maximize returns, insurance claims and any additional federal or state relief funds that may become available. (companycam.com/flood-relief)
“The better your documentation is, the more quickly and thoroughly you are going to see your insurance money,” said Kyle King, Marketing Director of CompanyCam. “We’ve seen how photo documentation can prove beneficial to the claims process time and again. We wanted to be able to give everyone affected by these floods the same opportunity to quickly get their maximum claim and get back to their lives.”
CompanyCam is a photo capture tool that automatically organizes photos by location and stores them securely in the cloud, creating a clear separation between your personal photos and your storm damage photos. It comes complete with unlimited storage and a tool to quickly create photo reports of all damages to submit to your insurance company.
“We work with tons of restoration companies who use CompanyCam day in and day out to document this kind of damage, so we know how important getting the right photos is when dealing with insurance companies,” said Hansen.
CompanyCam, along with BK Restoration, will be publishing informational materials on its blog educating those affected on how to properly document damage in the coming weeks. In addition, CompanyCam will be hosting webinars with restoration companies and insurance companies on their Facebook page to provide victims easy access to important information and answers as they begin the rebuilding process. (companycam.com/blog/flood-restoration-checklist)

Nebraska Contractors Eligible for Free Software Program
CompanyCam Announces Homefield Advantage Campaign
Lincoln, NE: This morning CompanyCam, the complete photo solution for contractors, announced its Homefield Advantage campaign. Luke Hansen, founder and CEO of CompanyCam, wanted to find a unique way to show his appreciation for his home state of Nebraska. Hansen had the idea to provide CompanyCam’s service, which is usually $12 per user per month, free of charge to every contractor in Nebraska.
“Coming from a family that started a roofing business in Nebraska and now starting my own company, I’ve come to see just how supportive the community is here,” said Hansen. “We had the idea to offer CompanyCam to every Nebraska contractor after winning a pitch competition among Midwestern startups that was held here in Lincoln back in June. We really saw the Nebraska community come together and support these startups from around the Midwest and we wanted to show our thanks.”
With over 9,000 users, more than 7M photos taken, and nearly 1M projects created, CompanyCam is establishing itself as an industry leader in photo management for contractors.
To celebrate the kick off of Homefield Advantage, CompanyCam will be hosting a tailgate for the University of Nebraska v. Rutgers University football game on September 23, 2017. The tailgate will be sponsored by Union Bank and Trust, Relentless Merch, White Castle Roofing, Haymarket Square Developers, Revolution Wraps, and The Doughnut Hole. The Lincoln, NE community has already shown great support for local startups and CompanyCam is excited for the opportunity to give back.
The Homefield Advantage campaign will kick off on September 18, 2017 and last until October 31, 2017. Customer’s free year of CompanyCam begins the date they sign up and will end in the fall of 2018.

CompanyCam Wins Summit Pitch Competition
Lincoln, NE: CompanyCam, the complete photo solution for contractors, won the Inside/Outside Innovation Summit Pitch Competition on June 21, 2017. The competition featured 10 startups from around the United States, each giving a five-minute pitch for a $100,000 investment from Nelnet.
On Tuesday, June 20 Luke Hansen, CEO of CompanyCam, found out he would be presenting in the IO Summit Pitch Competition — the next day. With less than 24 hours to prepare, Hansen and team worked tirelessly to put together their presentation. Although Tuesday night and Wednesday morning were hectic, Hansen delivered a pitch that cemented CompanyCam as the winner.
“I was proud of what we did,” Hansen said. “Regardless of whether we won or not, we put it together well.”
As for what Hansen wants to do with the money, creating more jobs is at the top of his list.
“A company is just people,” said Hansen. “You get good people and then you can really do something. I don’t know how to write code, I’m not that good at marketing, I’m crappy at following up with people, but there’s a person on our team that’s better at each of those than I am.”
