About Us

Our Story

Curbee wasn’t born in a boardroom. It was built from hands-on automotive experience and a deep understanding of how service operations actually work.

We started by running mobile service direct-to-consumers, completing thousands of appointments in the field. Not just car washes or oil changes, but brake jobs, battery replacements, diagnostics, and preventative maintenance.
‍
That experience made one thing clear: dealers didn’t need another idea.

They needed a system. So we evolved Curbee into a B2B platform, purpose-built to help dealerships operationalize, scale, and sustain mobile service with confidence. It was built from hands-on automotive experience and a deep understanding of how service operations actually work.

Maintenance is less expensive than repair.

How we work

At Curbee, we believe small, consistent improvements beat big, expensive fixes.

That’s why you’ll hear us say this a lot:
‍Maintenance is less expensive than repair.
‍
It’s true for vehicles. It’s true for operations. And it’s definitely true for software. Take care of things early, and they won’t surprise you later. That experience made one thing clear: dealers didn’t need another idea.
Which brings us to another belief: surprises are for birthdays. In business, surprises usually mean missed expectations. We prefer swift, sincere, and straightforward communication, so everyone knows what’s happening and what’s coming next.

No guesswork. No drama. Just clarity.
