What HOP Technologies does

HOP Technologies is a privately held Australian mobility and logistics technology group, founded in 2017 in Sydney by Zeryab Cheema and Andrew Morello following their exit from UK-based Taxi 24/7-Black Cab Payments. The company operates a four-pillar structure comprising HOP Fleet (operational last-mile logistics, fleet leasing, and micro-leasing as a core participant in Amazon's DSP program), HOP Mobility (an engineering arm developing intelligent transport software, EV fleet solutions, and AI-driven optimization tooling including the Route Quality Metric, PathPoint geospatial mapping, and predictive logistics systems), XI Ventures (an in-house investment vehicle backing logistics startups such as Trax and ClicOH), and HOP Technologies LLC (a UAE-incorporated entity supporting global expansion into Australasia, Latin America, and the Middle East).

The company generates revenue through a combination of recurring fleet micro-leasing subscriptions (with maintenance and insurance bundled), managed services via the Amazon DSP program, professional engineering services for enterprise and government transport operators (EV solutions, proof-of-concept deployments, and tender participation), and investment returns through XI Ventures' portfolio companies. Its technology stack combines telematics, real-time vehicle tracking, AI-driven geospatial analytics, and proprietary route-quality scoring, with a provisional patent on the Route Quality Metric filed in 2025 to formalize its core analytics IP.

As of 2024, HOP Technologies employs 60+ full-time staff and operates across Australia, the UAE, Latin America (via portfolio), and the UK, with 20+ transport partners including Amazon Logistics, Hertz, Europcar, Marsh, and Nexport/GoZero. The company's customer base spans enterprise logistics and e-commerce operators, independent drivers and couriers seeking micro-leasing access, and government/public transit operators. Capital invested across the group totals $14M, sourced from seed funding in 2018 and subsequent targeted equity rounds.
