About
Remi is a digital roofing marketplace that connects homeowners with vetted contractors for roofing replacement and repair — digitizing the historically fragmented and opaque roofing industry by providing homeowners with instant quotes, contractor vetting, project management tools, and financing options through a single platform. Founded in 2022 in Lehi, Utah and backed by Y Combinator, Remi raised $21.5 million including a $21 million Series A led by Pelion Venture Partners in August 2024, achieving $10.5 million in revenue in 2024 with 650% growth and 140 employees.\n\nRemi's marketplace workflow allows homeowners to submit their address, receive an AI-generated estimate from aerial and property data, get matched with vetted local roofing contractors, compare proposals, and manage the project through completion — with financing options embedded for homeowners who need to fund emergency or planned roof replacements. Roofing is one of the most significant home expenses ($10,000-30,000) and a market with high consumer anxiety: finding a reliable contractor, avoiding scams, and managing insurance claims are all pain points Remi addresses through its platform approach.\n\nIn 2025, Remi competes in the home improvement marketplace market with Thumbtack (general home services), Angi (formerly Angie's List), GAF (roofing manufacturer with a contractor network), and regional roofing software platforms for the homeowner-contractor matching workflow. The residential roofing market generates $50+ billion annually in the US — it's one of the largest home improvement categories but one of the least digitized. Remi's 650% growth suggests strong product-market fit for the digital roofing marketplace model. The 2025 strategy focuses on expanding the contractor network across more geographic markets, growing the embedded financing product, and adding solar and other rooftop product categories to increase the lifetime value of each homeowner relationship.

About
Lowe's Companies, Inc. is a Mooresville, North Carolina-based home improvement retailer — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: LOW) as a Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 Consumer Discretionary component — operating approximately 1,700 home improvement stores across the United States and Canada offering tools, hardware, paint, flooring, appliances, plumbing, electrical, lumber, outdoor living, and installation services through approximately 300,000 employees. In fiscal year 2024 (ending January 2025), Lowe's reported revenues of approximately $83.7 billion, with comparable store sales declining modestly as the post-pandemic home improvement spending normalization — following the 2020-2022 surge in home renovation activity — continued to weigh on transaction counts, partially offset by average ticket growth from Pro customer project spending. CEO Marvin Ellison has executed the "Total Home Strategy" focused on Pro customer (professional contractors, electricians, plumbers, and tradespeople) penetration: Lowe's has historically underindexed versus Home Depot with the Pro customer (Home Depot Pro revenue 50%+ of total versus Lowe's Pro closer to 25-30% historically), and the Total Home strategy's Lowe's Pro investments (expanded Pro desk service, designated Pro parking, dedicated Pro account managers, buy-online-pickup-in-store for contractors, net-30 Pro credit accounts) aim to close this Pro gap. Lowe's online sales (15%+ of total revenue) grew through the Lowes.com marketplace expansion (adding third-party products beyond owned inventory), same-day delivery partnerships, and contractor-oriented digital tools (project estimating, product specification sheets, installation scheduling).
