About

Terminal is a San Francisco-based commercial trucking telematics data platform — backed by Y Combinator (S23) with $3.1 million in seed funding led by Golden Ventures with Wayfinder, Northside, McVestCo, and Boon Fund angels — providing a universal API that aggregates data from 150,000+ commercial trucks' telematics systems (GPS location, speed, harsh braking, vehicle diagnostics, HOS compliance data) into a single normalized API accessible to insurance companies, fintech lenders, and fleet management software developers. Founded by Raghav Midha and Connor Giles, Terminal is building the "Plaid for commercial trucking telematics" — the data aggregation layer that enables connected products without bilateral integrations with every individual telematics provider.
