About this video

A two-minute introduction to Flyntlok from October 2020. It explains why Flyntlok was built the modern cloud way, why it connects to QuickBooks Online instead of building its own general ledger, and the numbers every dealer has to track, from over-the-counter parts ratios to rental fleet utilization and service KPIs.

For the newest version of this story, watch Flyntlok: Our Story from May 2026. Flyntlok now also supports Sage Intacct for accounting, and in 2025 it took a $36M growth investment from Mainsail Partners.

  • Built for every kind of equipment dealer. From blowers, mowers and weed whackers to loaders, graders, excavators, trucks and mining equipment.
  • Dealers are in the data business. Millions of part numbers, thousands of models and pricing that never stops changing.
  • Built the modern cloud way. Flyntlok focuses on dealer features and connects to the best tools instead of building everything.
  • QuickBooks Online as the general ledger. Fully integrated, with no import or export.
  • Run by dealers. The founders are equipment dealers for brands like Volvo, John Deere, STIHL, Honda, Bobcat, Doosan and Mack Trucks, and they test Flyntlok in their own stores.
