The Story
I built an app but it wasn't enough.
I decided to build a nation.
I love my technicians too much not to.
The Problem
76,000 technicians needed every year.
Only 39,000 graduate.
Shops burn them out.
Management doesn't get it.
Nobody speaks for them.
Every change in this industry benefits everyone but the technician.
The Builder
I've been turning wrenches for 25 years. ASE Master Technician certified.
I have worked flat rate, hourly, and dealership. I have trained new techs, managed shops, and watched some of the best people I know walk away from this industry because nobody had their back.
I've seen the tears. The burnout. The good ones quit.
The Solution
So I built APEX Tech Nation.
To give technicians the support they've never had and the community they deserve.
This is not just an app. This is the tool I wish I had on day one.
Education. AI diagnostics. ASE prep. Flat rate tips. Real support.
Built by a tech. For techs.
This is for the ones still in the fight.
