Both sides of an EV charging product, built by our team. Find a charger on the driver app, start a session and watch the operator console react in real time, down to the OCPP messages between charger and backend.
A working prototype, not a video. The network keeps moving while you use it.
The same experience, connected to real chargers, cars and payments.
Demo for illustration only. Chargers, vehicles, prices and payments are simulated, and nothing connects to real hardware.
Drivers delete an EV app the first time it sends them to a broken charger. These are the six failure points we plan for from the first sprint.
Stale status data sends drivers to chargers that are broken or already in use.
Drivers juggle a different app and account for every charging network they use.
Rules in Europe and the US now require ways to pay without an app or membership.
Guessing whether the battery will last turns a simple trip into a stressful one.
Several cars charging at once can overload a site or trigger expensive peak tariffs.
Public funding and EU rules ask for uptime, price and usage data in set formats.
The EV niche covers many kinds of products. We build each one around the people who use it, whether that's drivers, riders, fleet managers or charge point operators.
Maps nearby chargers with live availability, navigation, advance booking and in-app payment.
The backend that runs your chargers: start and stop, pricing, faults, users and reports.
Lets customers book electric cars, e-bikes and e-scooters by the hour or day.
Dockless or docked micromobility with QR unlock, geofencing and per-minute pricing.
Shows every vehicle's battery health, location, tyre pressure and charging in one view.
Plans trips with the right charging stops for the car, the weather and the load.
Schedules home charging at cheap tariff hours and tracks energy use and cost.
Lets homes and businesses rent out their private chargers to nearby drivers.
Ride apps for all-electric fleets, with charge-aware dispatch and shared rides.
Tracks state of health, charging habits and degradation for owners and fleets.
Balances site load, solar and batteries, and responds to grid demand signals.
Remote climate, charge limits, lock status and trip history for an EV brand.
Two flows run inside every charging product we build: the session flow between driver, backend and charger, and the money flow that bills, settles and reports. We build both on open standards.
Charging figures from the IEA Global EV Outlook 2026. NEVI uptime from the US federal minimum standards for funded chargers.
Open protocols let your app work with any charger, any network and any payment method. Here is what each one does and what we build with it.
| Standard | What it connects | Why it matters | What we build with it |
|---|---|---|---|
| OCPP 1.6J / 2.0.1 | Chargers to your charging backend. | Swap or mix hardware brands without rewriting the software. | A CPMS with remote start, live status, metering, firmware updates and smart charging. |
| OCPI 2.2.1 | Your network to other networks and roaming hubs. | Your drivers can charge elsewhere, and other drivers can pay at your chargers. | Roaming connections for locations, tariffs, sessions and charge detail records. |
| ISO 15118 | The car to the charger. | Plug & Charge: the car identifies itself and pays with no app or card. | Contract certificate handling in the backend and Plug & Charge flows in the app. |
| OpenADR | Your platform to the utility or grid operator. | Respond to grid demand events and earn from flexibility programmes. | Demand response and load control that slows or shifts charging on signal. |
| OICP / eRoaming hubs | Your network to hubs such as Hubject. | Reach drivers of car brands and apps that roam through a hub. | Hub integrations alongside OCPI so you cover the networks your drivers use. |
We test your chosen chargers against our backend before you buy at scale.
Thousands of simulated chargers let us load-test sessions before launch.
We run OCPP 1.6J and 2.0.1 side by side, so you can upgrade hardware over time.
27 features across the driver app, the operator and fleet console, and the admin panel. Pick a module to see what we build.

Talk to an EV Solutions ArchitectWe build the iOS, Android and web app your drivers and riders use every day, designed for one hand and a few taps.
We build the console your operations team uses to keep chargers and vehicles working and earning.
We build the admin panel that runs your business: people, partners, money and growth.
One in four new cars sold worldwide is now electric, and charging networks are growing fast to keep up. Every new car and charger needs software that drivers trust.
Up 20% on 2024, about a quarter of all new cars sold worldwide.

What founders, charge point operators and fleet owners ask before they build.
A focused MVP such as a charger finder or booking app usually takes about 10 to 14 weeks, or roughly 1,200 to 1,400 development hours. A full platform with a driver app, OCPP charging backend and operator console usually takes about 4 to 6 months, depending on features and integrations.
Cost depends on the type of app, the platforms you need, your charger hardware, integrations such as payments, roaming and telematics, and the markets you launch in. After a free consultation we share a detailed proposal with pricing and a phased timeline.
Yes. Every app we build is custom, so you can request as many features, changes and tweaks as you need, from your branding and pricing model to integrations with your own hardware and systems.
Most EV apps launch on both iOS and Android. Native apps in Swift and Kotlin suit apps with heavy map and Bluetooth use, while Flutter or React Native let you ship both platforms from one codebase. We recommend the right option after reviewing your features and budget.
Yes, if your chargers support OCPP, which most commercial chargers do. We connect them to the backend over OCPP 1.6J or 2.0.1, and we test your hardware against our system before you roll it out at scale.
Yes. We work in agile sprints, share a working build every two weeks and keep you informed at every stage, with a dedicated project manager as your single point of contact.
More than 20 million electric cars were sold in 2025, about a quarter of all new cars, and public charging points passed 7 million worldwide. Drivers expect one reliable app to find, start and pay for a charge, and new EU and US rules raise the bar for payments and uptime.
Yes. You receive 100% of the source code, designs and documentation, and you own the app, the data and the IP outright.
Tell us what you want drivers, riders or fleet managers to do with your app. We will come back with the features, integrations, timeline and estimate that fit.
Pick a time that suits you. No forms, no back-and-forth emails.
