Founding Contractor Program · First 10
Become a Founding DTCD Contractor
We are selecting the first contractors to deploy DTCD in live traffic-control operations and help shape the platform. DTCD is new and pre-revenue — we would rather say so than pretend otherwise. Being early is the offer.
What Founders Get
Direct onboarding
Your company, your seats, your state’s diary format, and your inspector’s expectations configured before the first closure.
Founder-level support
Not a ticket queue. The person who writes the code is reachable while your crew is running it.
A direct product-feedback channel
What your crews hit in the field goes straight to the person who can change it.
Priority feature consideration
Founding contractors’ requests are weighed first. That is not a promise to build everything — it is a promise about the order.
Discounted founding pricing
A founding rate on the $9.99 all-in plan, kept for as long as you stay.
Early access
New capability reaches founding contractors before it reaches the store listing.
Recognition, only if you want it
Being named as a founding contractor is optional and reversible. Nothing about your company is published without written permission.
Case-study participation is voluntary
A case study is never a condition of the founding rate, the pilot, or support. If you would rather stay quiet, stay quiet.
Who We're Looking For
Traffic-control and highway contractors with active work: lane closures, flagging operations, moving operations (striping, sweeping, mowing), or recurring DOT documentation requirements. Any state except Iowa (see below). If your crews keep a paper diary today, you are exactly who this is for.
How It Works
1. Tell us about one project. 2. We confirm eligibility and set up your company and seats. 3. Run DTCD on that project for two weeks — real closures, real diaries, submitted to a real inspector. 4. Keep the founding rate if it earns its place on your trucks. If it does not, you stop and owe nothing, and we would like to hear why.
Or email matthew@purposebuilt.systems with your company name, state, and crew count.
No customer case studies exist yet, and we are not inventing any. Here is the structure the first real one will follow →
Iowa exclusion. The program is not available to Iowa DOT, to contractors and consultants subject to Iowa DOT regulatory authority, or to engineering and consulting firms holding active Iowa DOT contracts. Whether your organization falls within the excluded class is determined under Iowa Code Chapter 68B — see our
Terms of Service.
