About
Garage is a San Francisco-based B2G marketplace digitizing the procurement of emergency vehicles and equipment for municipalities, fire departments, and government agencies — providing AI-powered vehicle appraisals, virtual inspections, integrated freight logistics, warranties, and financing for fire trucks, ambulances, aerial platforms, and rescue equipment that cost $500,000-$2 million per unit and were previously transacted through manual, relationship-based processes. Founded by Martin Hunt and Alaz Sengul and backed with $18 million raised including a $13.5 million Series A led by Infinity Ventures and a $4.5 million seed led by Initialized Capital, Garage modernizes a market where municipalities relied on dealer relationships and opaque pricing.
