About Mechanus IQ

Two dealer operators built the tool they wished they had.

Mechanus IQ is an operator-led company, not a SaaS vendor. The founders have spent the last fifteen years inside Canadian dealerships in F&I, finance director, and CFO roles. Every design decision traces to a specific frustration on the desk or in the month-end close.

Founders

CTO & Co-CEO

Bowen Schreyer

F&I Manager and Finance Director in Canadian dealerships since 2012, with a contractor FSM engagement running up to four stores simultaneously across auto and RV. Recognized among Canada's top-quartile F&I operators in the segment, with the consistency dealership owners and lenders both want from a finance desk. Built the Mechanus IQ detection surface from lived dealership experience, not from a whiteboard.

LinkedIn

COO & Co-CEO

Dan Douville

Fifteen years in Canadian dealership finance, including CFO for a multi-brand auto and RV group. Bachelor of Management in Accounting, with an external audit background that preceded the move inside the dealership. Brings the close-calendar, lender-readiness, and OEM-audit discipline that most dealers only get once a year from their external accountant.
