What is Gearflow?

Heavy civil contractors are the invisible backbone of America’s infrastructure. They’re the ones doing the hard work to build our roads, bridges, and pipelines. These contractors rely on their equipment to run smoothly and safely in order to finish their jobs on time. Yet today's fleet procurement workflows are offline, chaotic, and costly. There are software offerings for fleet management and accounting, but a clear procurement gap for construction fleets.

 

As the first AI-powered company dedicated to streamlining this procurement gap, Gearflow enables these men and women to get back to doing what they do best -- building America. We’ve co-designed the platform with top fleet teams and dealers to digitize the process.

 

And contractors freaking love Gearflow’s software. They procure seamlessly, communicate instantly, gain predictive recommendations, and see performance data previously unknowable. As the platform captures this end-end procurement data, it feeds an AI recommendation engine and automates tedious tasks.

 

As a founding Account Executive, your world is closing new business: forging new relationships with prospects, running our sales cycle, and giving heavy civil contractor fleets breakthrough technology.

If you have the tenacity to help build a seed stage startup; if you feel under-challenged at work; and if your ambition is yearning to be unleashed: Let’s Go!
