We strive to learn about motion in all its complexity, and use that knowledge to improve the way we move.

Using data from millions of journeys, we anticipate what drivers will do in the next split-second, so we can help them spend less.

“#1. The Best Founders know the competition cold.

They don’t mock competition, say it doesn’t exist, or not acknowledge their strengths. They know where they are strong, and where the others are.”

Portugal has reached historic highs in fuel prices, causing discontentment and concern in society in general, especially in industries that depend on fuel, like Road Freight.

44% of all commercial goods are currently being transported by road. Millions of jobs are in jeopardy.

[Meight @wearemeight]

The UK is suffering from a shortage of petrol, which has affected the industry in general. As BBC states, "The key issue is there aren't enough drivers to supply petrol".

Carriers must reduce their main cost, Fuel, to improve the working conditions of the drivers.

We can help!

Check out IPCC latest report on Climate Change! 🙌

As they claim: "Every tonne of CO₂ adds to global warming". This is why it is essential to invest in technologies that reduce CO₂ emissions, especially in Road Freight, which is responsible for 22% of global road emissions.

The inability to comply with EUs regulations can put >350K SMEs out of business over the next 5 years! 🚛

By optimizing the efficiency of the entire fleet, improving each individual driver’s performance, our solution allows SMEs to recoup their investments in 1.5 months! 🙌

UN Sustainable Goal nº11 - "Sustainable Cities and Communities".

The road freight sector is key to the EU economy with a €250bn industry and 1.5 million jobs. By saving 20% of diesel emissions we can help thousands of companies and preserve our society for a greener future🍀

@fchollet Nicely put. That's why there's so much value in physics and all the great names that built it. I was drawn to the world of modeling with the Navier-Stokes equations. If I could actually simulate fluid flow and capture real world phenomena, I was sure i was understanding it.

🤔What's the best way to transfer new technology to a product? 

👊Encourage scientists and engineers to participate in the design phase. 

😏But they don't know how to "design", what could they possibly do? 

🤘Expanding the design space of the problem to be solved.

In 2019, the EC introduced emission targets for road fleets, 15% reductions by 2025 and 30% by 2030, placing immense pressure on this industry, especially on >500K SMEs 🚛

Our solution allows for SMEs to comply with EC, one truck at a time, w/o substantial initial investments 🔥

If you ever go on a kill-meeting-spree, whatever you do, keep retrospectives (all kinds): the most fruitful sync moments you can have with your team.

The only product backlog management you should be doing is *delete*. If it arrived there it's because it's not important enough.

You will grow in unimaginable ways and looking back you see so many mistakes that makes you even more hungry for new ventures. /9

[António Reis @anfereis]

I had been in challenging environments before, where you need to push hard for success but building a startup is something else. Although there's a lot of content online, somehow I don't see important details written anywhere.

[António Reis @anfereis]

Read a lot but don't take it blindly. One of my last readings was From Impossible to Inevitable from @jasonlk and @motoceo and I totally recommend it. Being a founder means devoting 24/7 to making the change happen so be sure you mean it. /8
