Formation
Revalize was founded on June 29, 2021, by TA Associates ("TA"), a global growth private equity firm, and ST6, a consortium of software operating executives, with the aim to establish a provider of sector-specific software and SaaS solutions for the manufacturing industry.

The company's portfolio was established through the acquisition of multiple technologies:

Configure One CPQ and FPX Selling Cloud for sales configuration, PIPE-FLO for fluid flow analysis, and Lighting Analysts for a photometric analysis. The portfolio was further influenced by Hg Capital through a merger and acquisition operation, which contributed to Revalize's acquisition-driven expansion within the manufacturing software solutions sector.

Revalize's acquisition of AutoQuotes ("AQ"), from Luminate Capital Partners, a technology company specializing in the development of software for the food equipment and supplies (FES) industry, marked its official formation as a unified technology company.
