Ce que fait UpKeep

Mobile-First CMMS/Enterprise Asset Management System UpKeep is asset and maintenance management - done the right way. We take a mobile-first approach to the traditional desktop-based enterprise software. We keep technicians out in the field working on the most pressing issues - saving precious time and money. Tracking the costs of assets over their lifetime is now easier than ever. We keep businesses more efficient and streamline their workflow by eliminating paper work orders. We currently have over 2,000,000 registered users from small businesses to large enterprises. We offer low-cost solutions with transparent pricing to a common problem that many companies face. Our vision is to provide the best mobile solution for asset and work order management in a space that is dominated by traditional enterprise software companies. We've raised a total of $50 million from Y Combinator, Battery Ventures, Bain Capital, Emergence Capital, and Insight Partners. -Assign work orders -Create and save tasks -UPC Label scanning -Create assets and assign work orders to assets -Preview for analytical graphs We are a Y Combinator-backed company (YC W17)

Mobile-first software for maintenance teams

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a mobile-first computerized maintenance management system that helps technicians in the field assign and complete work orders, track assets, and manage maintenance without paper. Our app lets maintenance teams at businesses of all sizes streamline their workflow and save time by keeping everything accessible on their phones.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in Los Angeles, CA and the company is based there now and will remain so after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We chose Los Angeles because that's where we found early customers and our founding team. Being local to our initial market helped us build better relationships and understand the day-to-day challenges maintenance teams face.
