Every public page on this site has a plain-markdown mirror at its URL plus `index.md` (for example, https://rundoo.ai/product/index.md mirrors https://rundoo.ai/product/). Fetch the mirror to read any page without parsing HTML. ## About Rundoo's mission is to empower independent supply stores with best-in-class technology. From paint to lumber to flooring, over 200,000 such stores across the United States sell over $1 trillion of building materials annually using outdated, on-premises systems. Rundoo helps them modernize so they can continue to thrive. Backed by leading investors including Bessemer and CRV, Rundoo has raised $18M across three rounds and is growing quickly. The team is made up of builders, sellers, and industry veterans. ## Product Rundoo is an integrated platform for running an independent supply store. It replaces legacy on-premises POS systems with a modern, cloud-based platform that includes: - **Point of Sale**: Fast checkout with barcode scanning, customer accounts, charge transactions, and receipts. Staff can learn the system on their first day. - **Inventory Management**: Real-time stock tracking, receiving, and cycle counts across locations. - **AI Purchase Orders**: Rundoo analyzes sales history, current stock levels, and seasonal trends, then generates purchase orders automatically. - **AI Reports**: Store owners ask natural language questions like "which products lost margin last month?" and get reports in seconds. - **AI Price Comparisons**: Compare pricing against nearby competitors and adjust before losing the sale. - **AI Daily Health Summary**: Automated daily analysis that flags pricing errors, unusual transactions, and operational anomalies. - **Payments**: Integrated payment processing. - **Accounts Receivable**: Manage charge accounts, statements, and collections. - **EDI Ordering**: Electronic ordering with major distributors and buying groups. ## Results Stores that switch to Rundoo see measurable improvements: - 17% average revenue growth in the first year - 25% reduction in accounts receivable - 2% increase in gross margin ## Industries Served - **Hardware**: Full-line hardware stores and home centers - **Paint**: Independent paint retailers competing with big-box and national chains - **Farm & Feed**: Farm supply, feed stores, and agricultural retailers - **Lawn & Garden**: Nurseries, garden centers, and landscape supply - **Lumber**: Lumber yards and building material dealers ## Client Stories - Adam's True Value Hardware | Scranton, Pennsylvania | Hardware -
