About Roadforge
Heavy-duty truck repair is a $70B+ industry in the US, comprising over 50,000+ heavy-duty repair shops who repair the vehicles that form the backbone of our economy. But today, these shops are woefully underserved by existing software vendors.
That’s where Roadforge comes in. We’re a venture-backed shop management software platform on a mission to strengthen our country’s fleets by helping truck repair shops improve efficiency, reduce costs, and reduce time spent on manual, repetitive tasks.
We’re starting by building a shop management system that will enable repair shops to create service orders and manage parts / inventory with ease.
Our goal is to build the most comprehensive business management solution for the truck repair industry, while revolutionizing how repair shops find and source truck parts.
We may not have a fancy office or free snacks (yet), but we do have a team of passionate problem-solvers who are excited to make a positive impact in our space.
If you’re looking to build software that will shape the transportation and logistics industry, we’d love for you to join us.
