Inside Brandon’s Newest Tech Startup: Kaput Inc. - on-demand roadside assistance

Leading the charge in tech entrepreneurship in Brandon Manitoba, Peter Hutchinson has started a disruptive new company that offers on-demand roadside assistance at a fraction of the price. The first of its kind in Canada, Kaput Inc. is introducing an entirely new way to service your vehicle and get help when you need it. If your vehicle breaks down unexpectedly, Kaput is able to send help within minutes. Here’s an inside look at the technology behind the app and how it works...

How It Works

Unlike CAA or other roadside service subscriptions, the Kaput app allows you to request tire changes, battery boosts and fuel delivery as needed from technicians available 24 hours a day. Additional service offerings including towing, unlocking and winching will be added to the list of Kaput services later this year. The technology behind the app allows users to dispatch the closest technician in their area, allowing for fast response times of only 15-20 minutes. Because the Kaput app is not subscription-based, it’s able to save users hundreds of dollars in service fees over the lifetime of using the app because you only pay for what you use; not to mention you’ll pay less than market rate for every service. Most subscription services bank on the fact that most people never use their service calls and therefore the money you spend is wasted. Using Kaput, you save money and tap into a growing network of technicians that are here to help even when family and friends aren’t available.

Who Is It For?

The Kaput app is for anyone who wants to save money on unexpected vehicle issues. If you’re paying for roadside assistance that you’ll never use, Kaput will help you save hundreds over the lifetime of using the app. Having the app on hand gives you peace of mind that you will always have help available in case of emergency, without the extra expense.
