Standard Fleet is building the next generation of fleet management software. We treat vehicles as first-class citizens—so operators can connect to, track, and manage their fleets without installing cumbersome aftermarket “dongles.” We started with EVs, and now we’re building the platform for every drivetrain: electric, hybrid, and ICE. Our mission is to modernize commercial transportation by setting a new standard for how fleets are connected, operated, and scaled.
Every member of the Standard Fleet team is fueled by a deep passion for transportation and is committed to making our products meaningfully better each week. We come from companies like Apple, Uber, Tesla, Stripe, Yelp, and Embark. We’re growing quickly, having raised $20m in total funding.
Standard Fleet is well-funded and backed by some of Silicon Valley's top investors. Some of our founding team members, including our CEO David Hodge, previously founded Embark, a popular mobility software company that was acquired by Apple. We’ve succeeded before and we’re now back at it and swinging for the fences.
