PaintScout is Redefining the Painting Industry
Together, we’re building better software for painting contractors.
Inspired by a real contractor problem.
In 2015, PaintScout co-founder Jon Bryant was growing his own painting business, but found himself overwhelmed by the demands of running projects while also managing sales and creating estimates.
Instead of relaxing after a hard day’s work, he was spending his evenings creating proposals. This put stress on his personal life and the business. He knew there had to be a better way.
After searching for software and discovering that nothing truly fit the unique needs of painting contractors, Jon partnered with software developer Bryce Tymrick to build PaintScout.
Today, PaintScout helps contractors run more organized, professional, and profitable businesses — while having more time for themselves.

These principles guide everything we do.
Build Smart
Every feature, every design decision, and every line of code is made with contractor's success in mind. We don't build what's easy, we build what works.
Move Fast
The painting industry evolves quickly. We ship updates weekly, listen obsessively to feedback, and we aren't afraid to pivot when we're wrong.
Obsess Over Quality
Poorly designed software can cost a contractor thousands of dollars in lost time. We make sure everything is intuitive, so it’s easy to get started.
Collaborate and Listen
Our best features have come from contractor suggestions. We host monthly roundtables, visit job sites, and plan future updates collaboratively.
Own the Outcome
When a contractor wins a bid using PaintScout, we celebrate. When they struggle, we make improvements that help them get better results.
Earn Trust Daily
Contractors trust us to help them run their businesses. We protect their data, honor our commitments, and take those responsibilities seriously.
