The short version.

Three guys from metro Detroit.

We spent years watching businesses get sold solutions that didn't solve anything. Fancy dashboards nobody opened. Chatbots that annoyed customers. "Insights" that told you what you already knew.

The AI hype cycle hit and it got worse. Every vendor had a pitch. Every tool promised to "transform" something. But the businesses we knew — the ones actually making things, serving customers, running payroll — they didn't need transformation. They needed the stuff that was eating their time to just stop eating their time.

Start with the problem, not the technology. Build the simplest thing that fixes it.

That's the rule we started Traverse with. No jargon. No lab coats. Just honest conversations about what's broken and fast execution on what'll fix it.

We're the technical team your company doesn't have to hire. We stay on top of what's new so you don't have to — and we build the systems that put it to work. Your team handles the decisions that matter. We handle everything else.

The three of us.

The people who'll actually be on your call.

Matthew Trumbore
CEO · Co-founder

Before Traverse, Matthew was a Consulting Manager at Cognizant, advising executives on how technology drives business growth — he steers Traverse, the one who's seen exactly where off-the-shelf tools run out of road.

Andy Poterala
Co-founder

Before Traverse, Andy was a Boeing simulation engineer who went on to co-found Digits Sports and ChainVision — he's the cartographer, the one who charts the way through before anyone else sees the path.

Jeff Sims
Co-founder

Before Traverse, Jeff was a critical-care nurse who moved into clinical AI at Bayesian Health — he's the one obsessed with what happens when software has to hold up in the real world.
