    Company History & Product :

    UpKeep started in a garage, where our founder Ryan taught himself to code and built the first mobile-first maintenance app. The idea was simple but powerful : put modern software in the hands of frontline technicians—and transform how maintenance gets done.

    Today, UpKeep is the leading cloud-native Asset Operations Management platform, serving over 4,000 businesses worldwide across manufacturing, utilities, healthcare, and beyond. Our Industrial IoT and AI-first software helps maintenance and facilities teams streamline work, predict failures, and act faster—with real-time insights and automation at their fingertips.

    We're building for the deskless workforce —the essential workers who keep our physical world running—and arming them with the tools they deserve. In a world re-shoring manufacturing, accelerating automation, and embracing AI at scale, we're riding the next macro wave—and leading the transformation of legacy maintenance into intelligent operations.

    Backed by $50 million from Insight Partners, Emergence Capital, Mucker, and Y Combinator, we're not just building software. We're defining a new category for the built world.
