History
Bringrr was founded by James Logan in 2009 to produce and market Bringrr Reminder (later renamed Bringrr), a cylindrical device that plugs into a car's cigarette lighter and alerts users when the device does not detect the user's smartphone inside the car. At the time Logan, a former co-founder of Microtouch Systems and Gotuit, served as CEO. The company was incubated by Amoskeag Business Incubator in Manchester, New Hampshire and later moved to DifferenceMaker, a startup development program housed at the University of Massachusetts Lowell. The company moved to Boston in 2014.
The company began prototyping Bringrr in October 2012.{{cite web| url=http://mashable.com/2014/02/16/car-gadget-bringrr/ |title=Constantly Forget Your Phone? This Car Gadget Can Help |publisher=Mashable |accessdate=6 April 2014}} Aldo Beqiraj, an electrical engineering student at the University of Massachusetts Lowell, was hired as Bringrr's CMO in September 2013. Beqiraj became Bringrr CEO in January 2014. Bringrr successfully completed a $75,000 Kickstarter campaign later that month.{{cite web| url=http://www.crowdlifted.com/news/2014/1/bringrr-umass-lowell-undergrads-crowdfund-app-hardware-to-help-you-stop-losing-everything# |title=Bringrr: UMASS-Lowell Undergrads Crowdfund App, Hardware to Help You Stop Losing Everything |publisher=Crowdlifted |accessdate=6 April 2014}} In the Fall of 2014, Asheem Aggarwal became CEO of Bringrr, and changed the name to Pairable.
