About the development team
It was born from the desire of the two co-founders to "reduce tuning and spend more time playing". Our first product, RoadieTuner, was launched in 2013 and received worldwide attention and accolades, including the TechCrunch Disrupt 2014 Audience Choice Award. They released Roadie 2 in 2017 and Roadie Bass in 2018.
Since then, while working on Roadie 3, we have released several apps for musicians such as Roadie Tuner, Roadie Music Recorder, Roadie Bass Tuner and Ukulele by Roadie.
By chance, fate, or both, we have brought together a group of amazingly talented, music-loving professionals. We will continue to work on fun projects together to benefit the music community.
