SwiftSku

Mit Patel grew up inside convenience stores—literally. While other kids were doing homework, he was managing inventory, pricebooks, and reporting for his family's c-stores. He watched vendors walk in and fleece his parents with opaque pricing, watched manual processes drain hours that could have gone to actually running the business. So he built SwiftSku to destroy all of that.

SwiftSku connects the $650 billion convenience store industry with real-time management and analytics. Their app hooks directly into point-of-sale systems—Verifone, Gilbarco, you name it—so owners can monitor transactions, track voids and refunds, update fuel prices remotely, and spot anomalies in real time from their smartphone. No more printing flash reports. No more hours-long pricebook updates. Bulk changes take seconds now. They've got 2,300 happy customers rocking a 4.8 rating, and they're promising to save owners up to $10K on card fees with zero setup cost. That's the kind of value that makes independent c-stores actually competitive against the big chains.

Daniel Mazur handles operations and strategy with an analytics and design background that actually makes the product usable—because let's be honest, most industry software looks like it was designed by someone who has never seen a computer. Together, they're taking on an industry that runs on spreadsheets and prayer and showing them what software should actually feel like. This is what happens when founders build for a problem they lived.
