Actually, we help EV owners share their vehicle data (that is locked inside the car dashboard or the OEM mobile app) with third party service providers like e-mobility apps, auto insurance companies or utilities.
So you are creating a translation layer between OEM APIs and thirdparty service and giving the owner of the car to connect those pipes using your service?
Exactly, we act as a bridge between the EV owner and the third party apps. We rely on the EV owner's consent to share their data with a service of their choice.
What’s your business model?
Currently, we charge $0.25 per EV connected per month with upto 10,000 API calls allowed per month.
You’re charging the customer for this?

How do they control the rate of api calls?
