About Law Enforcement Software Solutions

Experience in Law Enforcement. Experience in Technology.

Law Enforcement Software Solutions (LESS) was established in 2004 to develop practical technology and software solutions for law enforcement and public safety agencies.

From the beginning, our focus has been on developing software around the real-world needs of the people who use it.

LESS combines law enforcement experience, technology, project management, and software development to create straightforward solutions that help agencies collect, manage, and report important information.

Built From Law Enforcement Experience

One of the company’s first major projects was the development of software to help Missouri law enforcement agencies meet the state’s vehicle-stop reporting requirements.

The need was clear: agencies required an efficient way to collect traffic-stop information, review their records, identify trends, and prepare required reports.

That experience helped establish the approach LESS continues to follow today:

Understand the requirement. Understand the agency. Build a practical solution.

Our applications are designed to make technology useful to the officers, supervisors, administrators, and staff who rely on it every day.

Our Experience

Martin (Tom) Karl

Martin (Tom) Karl is the principal owner of Law Enforcement Software Solutions.

His background includes more than 19 years of experience with the Boone County Sheriff’s Department and decades of experience working with technology.

While serving as a lieutenant of operations and supervising road officers, he recognized the need for better tools to collect traffic-stop information, identify trends, and prepare required reporting.

That combination of operational law enforcement experience and technology continues to guide the development of LESS software today.

Our Approach

We believe law enforcement technology should be:

Practical • Reliable • Affordable • Easy to Use

Agencies shouldn’t need complicated systems or large IT departments to benefit from effective software.

Whether we’re providing an existing LESS application or developing something specifically for an agency, our goal is to provide technology that solves a real problem and makes the job easier.
