Frequently Asked Questions
Agero’s technology culture is data-driven, customer-focused and built around its platform, Swoop, which connects drivers with assistance through a digital platform and established relationships with local service providers. Teams work on digital driver assistance, dispatch optimization, connected vehicle services and accident management solutions that support drivers, service providers, automakers and insurers at scale.
- Technology built for roadside scale: Agero supports more than 150 million vehicle coverage points and responds to about 14 million service events annually. That scale shapes a technology culture focused on reliability, transparency and operational efficiency. Agero’s CEO said the company invests in “intelligent, data-driven technology” while staying focused on the drivers and partners it serves.
- Swoop-powered dispatch intelligence: Agero’s Swoop platform reflects a practical, problem-solving engineering culture. Rather than simply dispatching the closest truck, Swoop uses real-time truck data, equipment requirements and configurable inputs for cost, quality and ETA to help identify the right provider for each job. As Agero puts it, “We aren’t just sending a truck. We are protecting your brand through intelligent, data-driven matchmaking.”

Agero Employee Perspectives
What tools support your day-to-day work?
The most impactful tool I've been using lately is AI. I see it being utilized more and more throughout the company and it definitely has had a huge impact on my workflow and productivity. Specifically Claude. Other tools we use are Zoom, Slack and G-suite for collaboration and staying in the loop. Github and CircleCI for reviewing code and ensuring quality stays high. Datadog and Rollbar for monitoring for issues and tracking down problems.
How does your team experiment?
We built an in-house experimentation engine. It allows us to set up different behavior across different populations and compare the results. We feed the results into Sigma which allows us to get impact on our core business metrics. Generally we put any new functionality behind this system as it allows us to turn it on/off easily.
How does your company adapt to change?
Change and adaptation are part of the job. We monitor our experiments and performance and pivot if things aren't going the way we expect. We try to stay current on the latest technology within our company (For example, we are constantly upgrading and migrating to the current best practices). We also look external for inspiration. I was part of the Swoop acquisition, which marked a huge change to how the company's technology operated; and was driven in part to absorb the technology offerings Swoop had. It also meant the entire company needed to adapt our communication and processes to fit one another. The recent Urgently acquisition is another such transition point, we absorbed urgently in part so we could learn from a different seasoned company in the space.
