# Porooch: Your gear, close at hand.

Affordable Bluetooth tracking for anything your team shares. Tag it once, and your team’s phones quietly note who had it last, where and when.

We’re building it now. This page will grow as Porooch does.

## Who it is for

Any business that shares gear. For example:

- **Construction & trades**: Drills, ladders, lasers, generators. Example: Hammer drill, with Sam, 2 min ago.
- **Events & AV**: Flight cases, lights, mics, staging. Example: Speaker case A3, with Jordan, 4 min ago.
- **Moving & delivery**: Dollies, straps, blankets, ramps. Example: Dolly 4, with Chris, 3 min ago.
- **Film & photo rental**: Cameras, lenses, drones, lights. Example: Lens case 3, with Noah, 10 min ago.
- **Landscaping & grounds**: Mowers, trimmers, blowers, trailers. Example: Hedge trimmer, with Luis, 40 min ago.
- **Cleaning & restoration**: Extractors, fans, dehumidifiers, vacuums. Example: Dehumidifier 12, with Dana, 15 min ago.

## How it works

1. **Tag it.** Stick a small, rugged tag on anything your team shares: tools, cases, dollies, cameras. One battery lasts years.
2. **Carry on.** The Porooch app runs on your team’s phones during a shift and quietly notes which tags are nearby.
3. **See it.** Check who had each item last, where and when, from your phone or the web.

## What you get

- **Who has it.** Every item shows the person who had it last, and how long ago.
- **Left-behind reminders.** A nudge before you drive off from a job without the gear you brought.
- **Morning check.** A daily list of anything nobody has seen, so you look for it today, not next month.
- **A little easier.** It won’t catch every item every time, and it doesn’t try to be a strict check-in system. It keeps a rough trail in the background, so there’s less chasing and fewer sign-out sheets for everyone.
- **Any gear.** Works on anything you can stick a tag to, from any brand, old or new.
- **Fair terms.** Month-to-month, unlimited users, no per-vehicle fees.

## Pricing

Priced for small teams, not fleets. Fleet trackers put a gateway in every vehicle and lock you into long contracts. Porooch uses the phones your team already carries, so the only hardware is the tags.

- $0 gateway hardware per vehicle
- 0 installs or wiring
- 1 month longest commitment

Pricing will be published before launch.

## Status

- **Research** (done): Market, hardware, cold-weather batteries and the name.
- **Building** (in progress): Tags, phone apps and the dashboard.
- **Pilot** (next): Testing with a few teams in real vehicles and job sites.
- **Launch** (later): Self-serve sign-up and a public price page.

## Why "Porooch"?

From the Ukrainian поруч (po·rooch): "nearby, close at hand". Which is exactly where your gear should be.
