Tumble

Tumble is a smart laundry technology platform transforming shared laundry rooms into high-quality smart amenities. In practice that means connecting machines, sensors and robots to software that controls or monitors them.

The natural audience is manufacturers and operators. They also list Internet of Things, Laundry and Dry-cleaning and Mobile, so expect those to show up in the feature set. As a small product team themselves (11 to 50 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

Tumble is based in San Francisco, California. Their site is tumble.to.

Things worth asking about: hardware compatibility, uptime, and support. Get the renewal terms in writing before the first invoice.

If you have worked with Tumble, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
