About Us

From a Lost Dog to a Life-Saving Tech Ecosystem

A Founder-Led Journey of Purpose, Precision & Progress

Lintek is a New Zealand–born technology company built from a personal moment — the day a family dog went missing — and strengthened through decades of engineering experience in networks, embedded firmware, and vehicle electronics.

What started in 2010 with our first invention, the Wi-Leash, grew into a purpose-driven mission: solve real problems with reliable, intelligent technology. One challenge at a time, we developed trusted solutions across communication systems, GPS tracking, AI camera safety, and connected devices.

Today, our brands — LiveTrek, Petrek, EyeSecure, and Escapade — reflect how far we’ve come. Each product is designed, tested, and refined in New Zealand to protect what matters most: people, pets, vehicles, and livelihoods

But our journey doesn’t stop at safety. As life grows faster and more digital, we’re exploring new ways for technology to help people slow down, reconnect with nature, and rediscover adventure.
This spirit is the heart of Escapade, launching in 2026 — our outdoor lifestyle line that blends rugged innovation with moments of quiet, exploration, and escape.

Lintek remains founder-led, purpose-built, and community-focused. Our story began with protection — and continues with connection.

We’re not just a tech company. We’re a founder-led, heart-driven team committed to creating meaningful tools — forged through personal experience, built with precision, and evolving with the communities we serve.
