Volteras

What Volteras does

Volteras is a London-based connected vehicle data infrastructure company that aggregates, normalizes, and streams real-time OEM-grade telemetry from 35+ global automakers through a single unified API. Founded in 2022 by three co-founders who originally set out to build an EV charging app, the company pivoted after identifying unreliable vehicle data as the core bottleneck for EV ecosystem participants. Its core product, the Volteras Connect API, delivers data every five seconds with 99.9% average uptime, covering location, state of charge, trip history, fault codes, charging sessions, mileage, and maintenance triggers, with proprietary endpoints such as charging session classification and real-range calculation that manufacturers do not expose directly. The platform also offers VIN batch upload for fleet onboarding, a web-based Volteras Portal for monitoring, and Battery State of Health certificates that have demonstrated measurable marketplace impact for EV remarketing.

The company monetizes through annual subscription contracts for API access and platform integration, sold via direct enterprise field sales and supplemented by API-first self-serve onboarding. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Target customers span fleet and leasing companies, ride hailing and mobility providers, insurance and roadside services, energy utilities and flexibility providers, and vehicle remarketing platforms. Distribution is concentrated in B2B enterprise sales, with named customers and partners including ev.energy, Rightcharge, Polestar, and Volkswagen Group Info Services, and operating geographies covering the UK, broader Europe, North America, and Australia.

Volteras has raised approximately $14 million across a $2.9M oversubscribed seed (October 2023) and an $11.1M Series A (May 2025, led by Union Square Ventures with Wex, Edenred, Exor, and Long Journey Ventures). The team has grown from five to 18 employees, the company is headquartered in expanded Liverpool Street offices in London, and it has achieved ISO/IEC 27001 certification. Its competitive positioning rests on official OEM partnerships versus scraping or hardware-based alternatives, with Volkswagen's 2024 API closure cited as evidence of the value of authorized access.

Broad incumbents

• Geotab: Largest independent fleet telematics provider globally with aftermarket hardware focus. Competitor in fleet telematics, but uses GPS hardware rather than OEM-direct data; serves many of the same fleet enterprise customers.
• Samsara: Publicly-traded IoT platform with strong fleet telematics offering. Competes for fleet operator budgets and data dollars, though relies on hardware devices versus Volteras' OEM-direct approach.
• Webfleet (Bridgestone): Bridgestone-owned fleet telematics platform serving commercial fleets across Europe. Competes with Volteras in the European fleet market but with hardware-dependent service model.
• Verizon Connect: Major fleet telematics and IoT provider serving enterprise fleets in North America. Direct overlap in fleet customer base, though built on hardware/sensor model rather than OEM-API data.

Emerging players

• Tronity: EV-focused telematics and smart charging platform integrated with VW Group APIs (named as VW official partner alongside Volteras). Overlaps in EV fleet data and charging analytics use cases.
• Ohme: EV charging management company that is an official VW Group partner. Overlaps with Volteras in smart charging data flows and energy flexibility, with growing crossover in EV telematics for fleet charging optimization.
