The Story

The job nobody wanted

In 1785, a flour mill needed four workers to run. One of them, usually a boy, spent hours and hours — day in and day out — raking warm, moist meal in circles so it could cool and dry. It was the job nobody wanted, the work that kept things moving but never got you ahead.

If you run your own business, you know that grind. I sure do.

The machine that freed the boy

Oliver Evans changed everything. He built the hopper-boy — the machine that freed the boy. Paired with three more of his automations, the whole mill ran itself — grain in, flour out, from four workers down to one supervisor. It became the third patent ever issued in America and transformed an entire industry.

Your office is the mill

We’re your hopperboy. The estimates, the follow-ups, the paperwork — that’s you, raking flour in circles. We build and manage the automations that free you to lead the business instead of raking through the admin.

The mark

The logo is the rake arm of Evans’s hopper-boy — the first machine in America to take a repetitive job off a person’s plate. That’s the whole business in one shape.

Stop raking, let Hopperboy automate the grind.
