Overview

Motorq is a connected vehicle data platform for automotive and insurance markets, providing cloud-based access to OEM-direct telematics from 25+ vehicle manufacturers without requiring plug-in hardware. The platform aggregates native embedded vehicle data -- covering vehicle health, location, fuel usage, and driver behavior -- and delivers it via APIs and analytics tools to fleet operators, insurance carriers, lenders, dealerships, and ride-hailing services.

The company's core approach eliminates third-party hardware by connecting directly to manufacturer-embedded telematics systems. Motorq's product suite includes the Motorq Fuse AI analytics platform for fleet operations, a Fleet Portal dashboard for real-time vehicle monitoring, REST API and data stream integrations for custom workflows, and a Snowflake-based data lake solution for enterprise data access.

Founded in 2017 by Arun Rajagopalan, Ashwin Raja, and Vivek Malipatil, Motorq has raised USD 49.3M across three rounds, including a USD 40M Series B led by Insight Partners in 2022 specifically targeting insurance market expansion. The company operates offices across North America and Europe, including San Francisco, Detroit, Chicago, London, and two India locations.
