Founded 2019 Self-funded Serving the US
Founded in 2019, The Sentry is a proudly independent, self-funded technology company. Built to protect lone and mobile workers across every industry, the platform delivers enterprise-grade safety technology without the prohibitive costs and rigid contracts of venture-backed corporate conglomerates.

Our mission: accessible safety for every worker

The Sentry was founded on a simple belief: that every worker who leaves the safety of an office or workplace deserves the same protection — regardless of whether their employer is a 10-person team or a national enterprise.

For decades, enterprise lone worker safety technology was priced and designed exclusively for large organisations with dedicated IT departments. Smaller teams were left with the choice between expensive, hardware-heavy enterprise systems and inadequate, indefensible consumer apps.

The Sentry was built to close that gap — providing enterprise-grade protection through a modern, cloud-first platform that any business can deploy in under an hour, for about $1 per worker per week.

Meet the founders

The Sentry is led by the people who built it — and who still run it.

Stuart Evans, Co-Founder and Director of The Sentry

Stuart Evans

Co-Founder & Director

Stuart co-founded The Sentry in 2019 with a singular ambition: to build the lone worker safety platform that growing teams desperately needed. A technology entrepreneur by trade, he designed and developed The Sentry app from the ground up — creating a cloud-first, mobile-native platform that delivers enterprise-grade protection without the hardware costs and IT overhead of legacy systems.

Stuart continues to lead the product and technical direction of The Sentry, ensuring the platform evolves in step with both emerging technology and an ever-changing US regulatory landscape.

Rebecca Evans, Co-Founder and Chief Operations Officer of The Sentry

Rebecca Evans

Co-Founder & Chief Operations Officer

Rebecca brings over 14 years of front-line operational leadership, having founded and run a field-services business. That ground-level experience — navigating employment legislation, managing lone-working staff, and running a compliance-heavy operation — gave her first-hand insight into why accessible, affordable lone worker safety was so urgently needed.

As COO, Rebecca oversees operations, compliance strategy, and customer success. She is a recognised voice on worker safety and lone-worker compliance.
