Equipment rental teams lose a 40-step checklist living in one person’s head. In most equipment rental businesses this job has never had software written for it. Whoever knows how it works becomes a single point of failure.
Onboarding handled by a document parser, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is per-outcome, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.
