ABOUT RUNDOO βΉοΈ
Our mission is to empower independent supply stores with best-in-class technology. Think of your local hardware store or mom-and-pop nurseryβthese are our clients. From paint to lumber to flooring, over 200,000 such stores across the country sell over $1T of building materials annually using outdated, on-premises systems. Weβre aiming to help them modernize so that they can continue to thrive.
Backed by leading investors including Bessemer and CRV, we've raised $18M across three rounds and are growing quickly. Our team is made up of builders, sellers, and industry veterans with a shared goal: to bring modern technology to an overlooked industry.
