Tim Regnier
Tim Regnier is the CEO and co-founder of Smart Access, a frontline performance management software company he started in Edmonton, Alberta in 2015 and now runs from San Francisco. After nearly a decade running retail-tech ventures, Regnier built Smart Access to solve the visibility gap for managers on warehouse, manufacturing, and store floors, turning static SOPs into living documents and pairing them with AI-driven observations, coaching, and analytics. His guiding belief that 'all truth is found on the floor' has shaped a platform used by top retail and logistics enterprises, and the company raised a $12M Series A in 2026.
Smart Access
Smart Access is an AI platform for frontline operations that closes the gap between how work is supposed to be done and how it actually gets done on the floor. Built for large retail, distribution, and logistics operations, it digitizes standard operating procedures, tracks frontline performance in real time, and turns floor-level observations into mobile coaching and skill-building for workers. Founded in 2015 by Tim Regnier and John White, the company raised a $12M Series A led by Lobby Capital.
