About ToolBelt

Built by someone who got tired of watching
great teams use bad tools

ToolBelt is an independent, self-funded product. No investors. No bloat. Just a platform operations teams actually want to use.

Why we exist

Most maintenance teams run on group texts, spreadsheets, and tribal knowledge.

We built ToolBelt because the problem was obvious and the existing solutions were either too expensive, too complex, or too generic to actually get used. Operations teams needed something that fit the way they work — not the way a software consultant imagined they should work.

The enterprise CMMS market is full of tools that require six-month implementations, dedicated administrators, and five-figure annual contracts. Meanwhile, the teams that actually need maintenance software — the facilities manager at a 150-person company, the operations director juggling three locations, the contractor managing equipment for a dozen clients — have nothing built for them.

ToolBelt started as a fix to that gap. Every feature exists because a real team needed it: recurring schedules because preventive maintenance kept getting skipped, QR code tracking because technicians needed asset info in the field, version history because auditors kept asking what changed and when.

We're self-funded and intend to stay that way. That means we build what our customers need — not what a board of directors wants to see in a growth deck.

Our mission

Build the maintenance platform that operations teams actually use — simple enough to adopt in a day, powerful enough to run on for years.

Not built for Fortune 500 procurement committees. Built for the person who actually has to fix things.

Why ToolBelt

We made some deliberate choices

Some of these are things other companies wouldn't say out loud. We think they're worth saying.

🌱

Self-funded, on purpose

No venture capital means no pressure to bloat the product, chase enterprise deals, or raise prices to hit growth targets. We grow when our customers grow — that's the only alignment we want.

Adoption in a day, not a quarter

If your team needs a three-week onboarding to use the software, the software has failed. ToolBelt is designed to be obvious — sign up, invite your team, and start tracking work orders the same afternoon.

🔒

Your data is always yours

Export everything at any time — before, during, or after you cancel. We never hold data hostage, require a call to leave, or make it difficult to take your records with you.

🎯

Built for one audience

We're not trying to be everything to everyone. ToolBelt is built for operations teams — facilities managers, maintenance supervisors, property managers — and we stay focused on making their work simpler.

💬

We answer our own support

When you write in, you hear from someone who knows the product — not a tier-1 agent reading from a script. Real feedback from real customers shapes every feature decision we make.

🔧

Priced for real teams

Our pricing was set by asking what a facilities manager at a mid-size company could actually justify — not by working backwards from a revenue target. Plans start free. Paid plans start at $49/mo.

What we believe

Convictions, not corporate values

These aren't plaques on a wall. They're the decisions we make every day about what to build, what to charge, and who to build it for.

01

Tools should be obvious, not trained

If a new team member can't figure out how to create a work order in 60 seconds, something is wrong with the software — not the team member. Simplicity is a feature, not a trade-off.

02

Accountability requires a paper trail

Operations teams deserve the same audit-grade history that enterprise teams pay six figures for. Version history, attribution, and change logs aren't premium features — they're table stakes.

03

The person doing the work knows best

We don't design for the C-suite. We design for the technician in the field, the manager who inherited a mess, and the coordinator trying to keep fifteen balls in the air. Their workflow drives ours.

04

Slow and right beats fast and wrong

We ship features when they're ready — not to hit a roadmap deadline or impress investors. A half-finished feature in a maintenance platform doesn't just frustrate users; it breaks their operations.

The team

The people behind ToolBelt

We're a small team. That's intentional. Small teams move faster, stay closer to customers, and don't build things nobody asked for.
