Collaboration between VivaDrive and Synerise under the Electro ScaleUp Program.

Synerise, one of the fastest growing Polish technology companies, will develop products for e-mobility. AI will help companies and organizations electrify car fleets and reduce fleet TCO costs.

Synerise is an ecosystem based on artificial intelligence, whose task is to provide companies with solutions that unify data management and — thanks to BI and AI systems — allow for immediate execution of business strategies in terms of sales, price optimization, advanced analysis, customer acquisition and retention across all channels of contact — says Jarosław Królewski, CEO of Synerise. We also see great business potential in the transformation of transport from combustion to electric vehicles — he adds.

The company from Krakow will develop new products dedicated to e-mobility as a partner of Pilot Maker Elektro ScaleUp. The programme allows big companies to define challenges in the area of electromobility. It also searches for start-ups offering innovations suited for program partners’ needs.

We collaborate with PKN ORLEN, TAURON, PGE Group, PKP Telkol, state-owned companies that are becoming a backbone of Polish e-mobility market. Our initiative is also a great opportunity for private companies, such as Synerise, because it helps them enter this exciting and very prospective market — says Magdalena Jackowska-Rejman, president of techBrainers, operator of the Pilot Maker Elektro ScaleUp program.

VivaDrive’s driver and fleet imporvement system

Synerise starts a collaboration with VivaDrive, a startup specializing in transport and mobility. The goal of the collaboration is to build a platform that facilitates car fleet electrification as well as management of mixed fleets consisting of traditional and electric vehicles.

VivaDrive #DigitalFleet program is unique — it is a digital solution that combines driving analytics, gamification and AI-based Synerise platform to optimise fuel consumption and battery charging, car service costs, insurance and residual vehicle value — explains Mateusz Maj, CEO of VivaDrive. Today, #DigitalFleet reduces vehicle operational cost by 4,000 PLN annually — he estimates.

Today, companies and local government face a problem of introducing electric cars into their organization. VivaDrive is also developing #EVRecommend, an objective, personalized and automatic recommendation engine that creates a full picture of a fleet including drivers, vehicles and transport needs and recommends the most optimal fleet electrification scenario.

VivaDrive is a technology parter of AI No Trace Expedition (#AINTE 2019) by Marek Kamiński, famous Polish explorer, who is setting off for the first ever journey around the world by electric car. Marek will test VivaDrive’s solutions during his journey.

Electromobility poses many challenges not only in the areas of material engineering or electronics, but also in data processing and artificial intelligence. Thanks to our AI-based platform, we want to create new products and services for e-mobility. At Synerise, we look forward to the future and we think globally, ‘says Arkadiusz Seredyn, Vice President of Synerise.

Will IT experts help us boost the electromobility? “They have an important role to play,” says Magdalena Jackowska-Rejman, president of techBrainers. Electric vehicles are packed with telematic devices that continuously transmit data on when, where and how a vehicle is used. Thanks to our startups’ innovations, our partner companies will be able to optimize the management of electric fleets and reduce the operational costs — she explains.

Elektro ScaleUp Program is financed from Program Operacyjny Inteligentny Rozwój, poddziałanie 2.4.1 Centrum analiz i pilotaży nowych instrumentów inno_LAB. More information about the program is available at poir.parp.gov.pl/elektroscaleup.
