About

Ridecell is a San Francisco-based fleet automation and mobility platform company that has raised over $100 million from investors including BMW i Ventures, Activate Capital, and others. Founded in 2009, Ridecell has evolved from a shared mobility software provider to a comprehensive fleet operations automation platform serving commercial fleet operators across rental, corporate, and transit applications.\n\nThe Ridecell Fleet+ platform automates key fleet management workflows including vehicle dispatch, maintenance scheduling, EV charging coordination, and remote vehicle access. The platform's automation engine connects to vehicles via telematics and IoT integrations, enabling fleet operators to reduce manual processes and operational costs while improving vehicle utilization and readiness.\n\nRidecell has a particularly strong presence in corporate fleet management and car-sharing programs operated by companies for employee transportation. Its EV-specific capabilities — including intelligent charging scheduling and energy cost optimization — have become increasingly central as corporate fleets electrify. The company serves clients across North America and Europe, including major automotive OEMs, car rental operators, and corporate fleet programs.
