About
We build technology that keeps supply stores independent.
One system for the counter, the back office, and the phone. Point of sale, inventory, charge accounts, and Rundoo AI on every screen. Owners can ask which contractor accounts are past due, flag low-margin sales, or find an order by customer name and get the answer in seconds.
Our mission
To empower independent supply stores with the best technology.
Why independents
Independent supply stores win on the things the chains cannot copy. They are nimble, they are durable, and they are built on relationships. They adapt to their town, they keep the staff who know every contractor by name, and they invest in customers for the long haul. We do not build for big boxes, because that is a fundamentally different business. We build for the owner-operator behind the counter.
The question that changed the game was: who were my top spenders in 2022 who aren't buying from me in 2025? Rundoo AI returned a top list of 20 accounts in seconds. Without manually comparing years and running multiple reports, I had an actionable hit list for re-engagement.
The story
Rundoo started in 2020 with a simple frustration. The software running independent supply stores was old, slow, and stitched together from parts that did not talk to each other. Our founders came out of Stanford and time at Apple and Google, and they went looking for the data that should have been powering these businesses. There wasn't any. No clean inventory, no real pricing, no shared terms. So we built the foundation first, the POS. From there we kept going, into inventory, payments, accounting, and the apps an owner carries in their pocket. Today that work has brought Rundoo to more than 500 independent stores across the US and Canada, and the same idea drives every release: put everything in one system, then put AI on top of it so owners get answers, not more reports to dig through.
What we build
One connected system instead of six tools bolted together. Your team works in it either in the store, on the go, or at home, and the whole business runs in a unified system.
Web App & POS
A fast browser-based point of sale for the counter, a tablet, or the back office, with nothing to install.
Staff App
Inventory, orders, accounts, labels, and reporting in your team's pocket, on iOS and Android.
Customer App
Customers see invoices and statements and pay their balance from their own phone.
What we believe
Technology works best in concert
When every part of the system speaks the same language, you get answers that are impossible when you bolt six tools together.
Partner first, product second
Choosing a POS is choosing a partner. We answer the phone, we visit the store, and every Dooer spends their first week working at a client. We publish changes in The Primer, and our roadmap is open for your comments.
We are not going anywhere
Rundoo is gross-margin profitable and built to last. We are not for sale. Your store runs on us, and we take that seriously.
The team
We are about 50 Dooers across two offices, R&D in Redwood City and go-to-market in Chicago, backed by leading technology investors. The walls are covered in signed t-shirts from the stores we serve, which is the only org chart that really matters to us.
Our culture
The culture that spells our name
A lot of our success comes down to how we work, so we made it impossible to forget and spelled it with our own name. Six letters, six values. Read the full story.
Relentless
When we believe a challenge is worth pursuing, we do not quit unless our underlying conviction changes.
Unassuming
We do not assume we know more than others. We can learn from anyone.
Now
We do things now.
Delightful
We love our work, we love working with each other, and our clients love working with us.
Optimized
We make decisions rigorously by defining the underlying optimization problem.
Open
We are open about almost everything: finances, strategy, feedback, promotion frameworks, and more.
