[MākuSafe](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0000bjr/makusafe) introduced a Remote Worker Field Kit and SiteLink Mesh Networking for its Ally wearable and MākuSmart AI platform, extending real-time environmental and ergonomic risk monitoring to workers outside traditional facilities. The West Des Moines, Iowa, company announced the additions on November 11, 2026, according to [PR Newswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/mkusafe-reaffirms-commitment-to-wearable-safety-technology-expanding-ai-connectivity-and-real-world-risk-intelligence-302936711.html).

## What the MākuSafe Field Kit and Mesh Add

The Remote Worker Field Kit brings real-time environmental and ergonomic risk intelligence to distributed workers, including route personnel and field service teams. SiteLink Mesh Networking enables wearable-to-wearable communication, which the company said simplifies deployment and reduces dependence on facility Wi-Fi infrastructure.

MākuSmart AI lets safety and operations professionals query their own leading indicator data in conversation, to uncover trends, prioritize risks and identify improvement opportunities. The company also described operational intelligence applications beyond injury prevention, including workflow optimization and productivity, and said its Scout technology provides forklift-pedestrian interaction intelligence, with emerging customer-driven applications including autonomous guided vehicles.

MyVoice enables push-to-talk reporting of concerns, observations and near misses, including multilingual processing so employees can communicate in their native languages. MākuSafe said the technology does not collect biometrics or continuously track employees.

"Better data leads to better decisions, fewer injuries, and more productive operations," said Gabriel Glynn, CEO and Co-Founder of MākuSafe. "We're committed to making that intelligence practical, accessible, and economical for organizations of all sizes."
