About CSI

A safety institute built for the carnival industry

Carnival Safety Institute provides safety education, ride lifecycle records, workforce training, maintenance tools, and carnival transportation software.

Purpose

Why CSI exists

Carnival equipment travels, changes hands, and outlives the paperwork that documents it. Workers move between companies and often start over proving what they already know. CSI exists to make that history durable, portable, and usable in the field.

Records that last

Ride and worker records should outlive paperwork, ownership changes, and staff turnover.

Field-first tools

Software has to work on a phone, on a lot, with gloves on and time running short.

Access with permission

Information is shared deliberately. Identification is public; records are not.

Modular by design

A single-ride owner and a large route operation should both be able to start somewhere.
