Origins
Ben and Ariyaman met as students in Montreal. Ben ran a roofing company, then founded Timrep, a contractor permitting startup that reached six-figure revenue and raised from Accomplice. Ariyaman grew an SEO startup to six-figure ARR and automated property management for 3,000+ units.
Before building Fleety, they worked as dispatchers at home service companies. Dispatch decides how much a shop makes, but it runs on gut feel and bad data. Jobs go to whoever is free, not the tech most likely to close.
They moved to San Francisco to fix that, starting with dispatch.
