About Traveler

Traveler exists because shop software abandoned small shops. Two-thirds of US machine shops have fewer than ten people, and every credible system prices them out: per-seat licenses, five-figure implementations, quotes hidden behind sales calls, and data-entry ceremony designed for companies with office staff. So 11,000+ shops run on spreadsheets, whiteboards, and memory — not because owners are behind the times, but because the alternative was built for someone else.

We spent months reading what shop owners actually say — thousands of forum posts, reviews, and build-my-own-ERP threads — and designed Traveler from that record: quote in minutes, travelers with QR codes, floor clocking with no passwords, compliance paperwork that assembles itself, and a price structure with nothing hidden.

The promises, plainly: prices on the page, never per-seat. No implementation fee. A one-click full export of your data on every plan, forever — your shop's history is not a hostage. The Shop Server edition runs on hardware you own, with or without us. And a human answers email.

Traveler is in early access. Pricing shown is committed launch pricing. Product screens on this site are design previews of the software under development. We are not affiliated with ECI, ProShop, or any vendor named for comparison.
