bannerman

Bannerman is a San Francisco-based technology company that operates a security guard marketplace, connecting businesses with screened, licensed, insured, and certified security professionals. Founded in 2014 (Y Combinator S14) and backed by Slow Ventures, FundersClub, and Y Combinator, Bannerman brings software and technology to the traditionally manual physical-security-services industry. Its web dashboard lets clients book, schedule, and manage on-site security officers, run real-time GPS patrol tracking and incident reporting, handle communications, and manage billing from a single security-officer-management platform. Clients have included Lyft, WeWork, BMW, Juul, and YSL, with service across San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, and Chicago. No public API, developer portal, or machine-readable API artifacts are published at this time.
