We’re on a mission to modernize and strengthen the relationships that are the fabric of the construction industry and the backbone of the built-world we live in every day.
From homes and offices to museums, schools, storefronts and more, we believe the buildings around us reflect the story of our times. And we’re honored to support the flow of communications in the construction industry that allows this story to come to life.
Founded in 2016, Prokeep was born out of an excitement to learn firsthand, a desire to create, and a genuine admiration for the people and relationships that are the lifeblood of the construction industry. As new homeowners, our founders noticed their most resourceful contractors would text the personal cell phone of their distributors rep for part availability or technical help. While the intention was to get the job done more efficiently and cost effectively, sometimes the distributor rep wasn't available because he was in the warehouse, out to lunch, or worse-out sick! They stepped back and said, there has to be a better way.
They interviewed the full spectrum of invisible, unsung doers involved in the end-to-end process, and discovered that using a texting platform to simplify communication would be a win-win for all involved. Better communications would mean a better workflow, better service, better tangible results and happier customers all around. And so Prokeep was born.
Fast forward to today and Prokeep is now proud to serve distributors of all sizes and be endorsed by many of the major buying groups and trade associations. More than half a million messages are exchanged every month on our platform, representing hundreds of thousands orders placed, inventory confirmed, and customers talking shop and just saying “hi.” We stay in close touch with our customers to make sure we evolve our product thoughtfully. Every day we show up inspired to serve those customers and to simplify communications for everyone, everywhere in the construction industry. Our hope? That someday Prokeep will allow anyone, anywhere in the construction world to exchange the info they need to build a piece of today…and a tangible, lasting legacy for tomorrow.
While our team is a diverse bunch hailing from all around the country, a common thread unites us: we’re relationship- oriented, tenacious problem solvers and innovators who are happiest when our customers are happy.
