Buying tires is complicated. We don’t think it needs to be. TireTutor is the first marketplace site for tires and automotive service and repair—we do for the tire industry what other marketplace sites have done for cars, homes, and travel. Our proprietary algorithm displays completely unbiased results and tire recommendations to consumers. TireTutor uses the data from its platform to power its backend dealer management software, helping local shops optimize their supply chain, improve their online presence, and close more business. We started TireTutor at MIT in 2017 because we believe there’s a better way to buy tires than calling around to different shops or having tires shipped to your house. We believe in digital, transparency, and supporting local, independent dealers. For years the small repair shop has struggled to compete in a digital world with large online retailers and big box stores. TireTutor is changing that. Today, we have 100+ dealers on our website in the Greater Boston area, and we are rapidly expanding to New England and beyond. At TireTutor, we’re building a (genuinely) diverse and inclusive culture from the ground up. It’s our belief that our team’s unique backgrounds and varying experiences better inform our company strategy, foster innovation and inspire meaningful collaboration. If you have the drive to be a part of a world-class team with a culture of empowerment, we’d love to hear from you.

We built a software product that minimizes network latency by applying spectral graph theory and proprietary heuristics to optimize the distribution of workloads by Job Schedulers within dynamic computing environments of large-scale parallel systems, decreasing time-to-results and increasing aggregate machine utilization for some of the world's most important applications including real-time medical imaging, energy research, weather forecasting, and machine learning. Our software is job scheduler agnostic and optimally allocates hardware or Virtual Machines for a given workload to minimize network (port-to- port) latency.
