Every morning, Jaraad and Karl weaved through the same obstacle course, potholes scattered across their daily route to work. It wasn’t just frustrating. It was exhausting, damaging, and worst of all, avoidable. One day, after a particularly jarring bump outside Karl’s driveway, they decided enough was enough.

Determined to take action, the two friends began researching cold asphalt solutions. But the process felt discouraging. Most products required a long checklist… cleaning out the pothole, pouring in the mix, tamping it down with heavy tools, and hoping it held up. It felt like a job for a construction team, not regular people who just wanted to help fix their roads.

Then came the breakthrough.

What if there was no need for prep work or tamping? What if they could simply toss something into the pothole and walk away?

That single idea sparked the creation of PatchPal. A ready-to-use, biodegradable bag filled with a custom-formulated asphalt mix. No tools. No mess. Just throw it into the pothole. As vehicles pass over it, the weight of the traffic naturally compresses the patch into place, creating a durable, lasting repair.

PatchPal wasn’t born in a lab or a boardroom. It started with a daily annoyance and a simple question. Today, it’s a smarter way to fix roads so you don’t have to keep dodging the same pothole every morning.
