Clonck UG is a Munich-based company operating in the automotive aftermarket, providing a digital solution for ordering car parts and accessing repair manuals. Founded in 2017 by Rene Lalla, with Pascal Walter credited as the originator of the idea, the company addresses the common issue of incorrectly ordered spare parts in the complex online market. The firm targets both professional car mechanics and DIY car enthusiasts, aiming to simplify the repair process.
The core of Clonck's offering is a mobile application available for Android and a web app, with an iOS version planned. This app allows users to identify and purchase the correct spare parts by adding their vehicle model, selecting the necessary component from exploded-view diagrams, and entering the Vehicle Identification Number (FIN). This process is designed to be intuitive, eliminating the need for specialized technical knowledge and reducing the likelihood of returns due to incompatibility. Beyond parts purchasing, Clonck also provides access to original repair manuals from various manufacturers, enabling users to perform a wide range of repairs themselves.
The business generates revenue through the sale of original equipment (OE) and aftermarket car parts via its application. While the company had to temporarily suspend some services due to operational costs, it continues to facilitate parts purchasing via OE numbers. The founding team, which at one point consisted of six members, has expressed ambitions for future expansion across Europe and into the U.S. market. The startup has received support from institutional investors, including WERK1 and the Strascheg Center for Entrepreneurship, which provided funding in November 2018.
