Our Story

A letter from the Founder

I am often asked to talk about what prompted us to start a brand-new Inventory Management enterprise back in 2011… It’s simple. We hated the state of things at the time…

Every person at the founding of our company was an industrial distributor. We correctly surmised that industrial vending, storeroom automation, and digitization of all replenishments was not a niche fad, but the only way parts would be managed in the future. So, we went looking. Looked at CribMaster, looked at AutoCrib, looked at SupplyPro, looked at Supply Point, looked at SnapVend, looked at 1Source Supplies, and then came to the realization. They are all like milk in your grocery store. Same cartons of different sizes and different labels, but in the end, still milk. Something that hasn’t evolved in decades since milkmen went obsolete. There was absolutely nothing we liked about the offering in 2010 – just a bunch of lookalike products, designed for the wrong industry. If that was the only issue –a bunch of me-too machines—things wouldn’t be as bad. But it was worse… They were expensive, overengineered, broke down often, and were a total pain to replenish and service for all of us. We scratched our heads over why things were so bad.

And then a glimmer of hope. We drew inspiration from Apple. Every device prior to the iPhone was more or less the same hard plastic shells with a bunch of buttons, crappy screens, and caveman user interfaces. Apple changed the paradigm, with on-screen key boards and large screens and beautiful designs that made devices people actually wanted to use, not had to use. The small trade-off of giving up a physical keyboard for a better customer experience was obvious. Likewise, we believed the dozens of motors and coils—and the rigid service experience they created—had to go. We realized that if Apple could do it, so could we, if we took a ‘clean sheet’ approach.

We wanted to offer vending machines and storeroom equipment that were beautiful, highly durable, easy to use and service, and significantly less expensive. And if it didn’t exist, then we’d have to create it, out of thin air, if we had to. So, we drew inspiration from Alan Kay, whose thought process from the 1970s permeates our daily lives, whether you know it or not: “The best way to predict the future is to invent it.” Hop on this journey with us!

Cordially,

The Founder
