What Chargetrip does
Chargetrip B.V. is an Amsterdam-based software company founded in 2017 that operates an EV routing and range-prediction platform delivered as an API SaaS product. Its core technology is an EV routing engine that combines a proprietary database of 1,800+ personal and 300+ commercial EV models with validated consumption models accounting for drag coefficient, rolling resistance, speed, elevation, temperature, battery health, and state of charge, exposing these capabilities through a GraphQL API, JavaScript SDK, and a developer playground. The product surface includes a Route Planner, Charge Map, Range Map (with the Range Spider visualization), a Dispatch fleet management module, and Evalo, a fleet simulation tool for assessing EV deployment, battery sizing, and charging infrastructure. A No-Code Solution delivers the same routing capability as a ready-made responsive web app for non-developer buyers.
The company monetizes through three streams: usage-based API fees (with a freemium tier, a paid Launch plan, and custom enterprise pricing), annual subscriptions for the No-Code Solution (12-month commitment), and multi-year enterprise contracts that include custom station databases, connected-vehicle support, and premium SLAs. Distribution combines direct enterprise sales, self-serve API signup, a no-code subscription channel, and an integration partner program for white-label reselling (e.g., Deftpower, Solidstudio), supplemented by OEM embedded deployments (e.g., Porsche for range marketing).
Chargetrip serves four primary customer segments — charge point operators (CPOs), e-mobility service providers (eMSPs), commercial fleet operators, and vehicle OEMs (including rental and leasing) — with secondary reach into retailers and consulting firms. Named enterprise customers include Repsol (Waylet app, 6M+ users), Plugsurfing (2M drivers, 600K charge points), Octopus Electroverse, Iberdrola, Porsche, Arval, Deloitte, and OVO Energy, alongside a long tail of EV startups and a Norwegian EV Association deployment covering 120,000 members. The platform reaches approximately 15% of European EV drivers monthly through partner integrations and supports 1+ million public chargers across 40+ countries. The company raised an oversubscribed €10M Series A led by HSBC Asset Management in March 2023, with a second close from WEX Venture Capital in July 2023, and obtained B Corp certification in November 2023.

Chargetrip competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- ABRP (A Better Routeplanner): ABRP is the most recognized consumer-facing EV route planner and also offers routing through integrations. Like Chargetrip, it specializes in multi-EV-model routing with consumption modeling, but is primarily direct-to-consumer whereas Chargetrip is API-first for partners.
- GreenFlux: GreenFlux provides EV charging management software and eMSP services in Europe, serving similar CPO and eMSP customers as Chargetrip. It is comparable as an EV charging software platform serving European mobility and energy customers.
- HERE Technologies: HERE provides EV routing APIs as part of its location platform, serving automotive and enterprise customers. It directly competes with Chargetrip's API product, particularly for OEM-embedded EV routing deployments globally.
- TomTom: TomTom offers EV routing APIs for OEMs and developers with map data, traffic, and EV-specific routing. It is a direct competitor to Chargetrip in the embedded EV routing space, particularly for European OEM and automotive customers.
Emerging players
- EV.energy: EV.energy offers managed EV charging software focused on utility, fleet, and consumer smart-charging applications. It overlaps with Chargetrip on the managed EV charging software axis and competes for similar utility and energy customers.
- Enode: Enode offers an API platform connecting EVs, chargers, and energy systems for energy companies and OEMs. It is comparable to Chargetrip as an EV-focused API platform enabling smart charging, routing, and energy integration for partners.
- Monta: Monta is an EV charging platform serving CPOs, eMSPs, and drivers across Europe with charging management, roaming, and routing features. It competes with Chargetrip for the same CPO and eMSP partner ecosystem.
Broad incumbents
- ChargePoint: ChargePoint is a large EV charging network operator with its own driver app and software platform including trip planning. It represents the in-house CPO alternative to Chargetrip, with built-in routing that competes against third-party EV routing providers.
- Driivz: Driivz is an end-to-end EV charging management platform (CPMS) used by large utilities and charge point operators. It overlaps with Chargetrip in the CPO software stack, though Driivz focuses on the operational back office while Chargetrip focuses on driver-facing routing.
- Google Maps: Google Maps has integrated EV routing features in major markets with deep charger data and consumer reach. It is the most threatening broad incumbent, as its native EV routing could displace third-party routing layers embedded in partner apps.
