Manufacturers are the backbone of the economy. It's time to get them out of Excel hell.
Hi, I'm Dan, CEO & Co-founder at Digit. The idea for Digit goes all the way back to 2015.
I spent 7 years consulting manufacturers and distributors all across the US, from 10 employees to 10,000. I spent days, nights, and weekends in warehouses talking to frontline workers, managers, and owners. I observed every process, carefully listened to every challenge, and over time, learned how to help solve them effectively.
Because of that experience I was brought on as the CEO to lead the turnaround of a struggling plastic injection molder in Dalton, Georgia that had lost money 7 out of 8 years. During my time we brought the company back to profitability, increased revenue 5x, and built a rockstar team in the process.
Throughout all these years as a consultant and as an operator, I noticed that manufacturers and distributors have no good software systems to choose from. Either they spend years implementing a bloated, legacy ERP everyone hates or they continue living in Excel hell.
I knew there was a better way. So I decided to start Digit to build the system I wish I had.
We've lived manufacturing and have successfully built high-growth startups.
