About us
🥃 Scotch’s mission is to modernize one of the oldest industries on
earth: the $1.6T beverage alcohol market. We’re starting by building the
next-generation operating system for BevAlc retailers (POS, payments,
backoffice, ecommerce). If you love Rails, solving real-world problems,
and want to work with a team that is more talent dense than osmium, we’d
love to talk.
Our founding team is comprised of the exec team from Skupos (a c-store software company that was acquired for 9-figures in 2023), the founders of SimpleCircle (ERP for breweries acquired
in 2024), and engineers from other top technology companies. We’ve
raised $10MM to build and scale Scotch from tier-one VC’s like First
Round, Lerer Hippeau, and Toba Capital, as well as strategic angels like
the founder of Drizly, founding executives of Toast, and others.
