Our mission

LIV exists to support fire prevention teams with modern infrastructure, real partnership, and measurable results. Developed with and for the industry, our platform strengthens compliance programs, improves accountability, and helps jurisdictions operate with greater clarity and confidence.

Our story
Founded in 2019 by co-founders Cole Harding, an ITM industry veteran, and Chase Norton, a technology and services leader, LIV was built to solve the operational challenges facing modern fire prevention teams.
From the beginning, the goal was clear: create modern, industry-specific compliance infrastructure designed around real AHJ workflows — not generic systems retrofitted for fire prevention.
As adoption has grown, more than 250 AHJs have transitioned from legacy systems or competitors to LIV, reinforcing our position as a modern, trusted alternative in the market.
LIV is backed by over $30M in capital investments from investors and Mainsail Partners, enabling continued investment in product innovation, customer success, and industry expertise to ensure jurisdictions have a stable, reliable partner for the long term.
