Implementation Consultant, AutoLeap

AutoLeap provides a modern SaaS solution that small repair shops need to survive this transformation by digitizing processes from invoicing and accounting, to customer relationship management and scheduling. There is considerable opportunity within this space, with the automotive aftermarket being a $700 billion industry.

The company enjoyed CA $40 million in funding in 2023 and the round's success is down to the tough auto industry environment. Put simply, consumers are more likely to repair their old cars than buy new ones due to rising prices. Having tripled its team size since its 2021 round, the 2023 funding is being put towards expanding its auto-repair shop customer base, which stands to benefit from AutoLeap's SaaS solutions during tough market conditions.
