The AI Operating System For Modern Fleets.

Carma is building an AI-native platform that transforms fleet operations from tedious, manual work into effortless, automated workflows. We’re the fastest-growing company in fleet management software. Carma already powers some of the largest fleets in the U.S., including Fortune 500 clients, saving operations teams thousands of hours by eliminating busywork and keeping vehicles on the road. Backed by Soma Capital, Y Combinator, founders of Superhuman, and Tier-1 investors, we raised our $5.5M seed and are sprinting toward a Series A in 2026. We’re hiring the top 0.1% of engineers who want real ownership and impact—starting Day 1, you’ll build and ship fast to production for enterprise clients. Fleet operations run in real time, so your work is immediately used in the field and gets real customer feedback in hours, not months.

Company Launches
Carma: We replaced fleet operations with software.
See original launch post

We manage 10,000+ vehicles for Fortune 500 companies with a team of 10.

8 months ago, we scrapped our original model and rebuilt Carma as an AI-native operating system for fleet operations.

Since then, every metric has compounded.

The problem

Fleet maintenance is the #1 cost for companies that run vehicles.

And it’s still managed with:

  • 15+ disconnected tools
  • spreadsheets
  • phone calls

Million-dollar decisions happen daily.

Made by people who:

  • aren’t automotive experts
  • aren’t incentivized on cost

So they approve everything.

Management can’t keep up. The problem requires deep technical context. It gets ignored.

As fleets grow, complexity snowballs.

The double-effect is vicious:

Vehicle uptime drops while costs spiral.

Margins bleed heavily.

Why incumbents fail

The incumbent software providers are 30+ year-old leasing companies.

They make money when fleets replace vehicles more often.

So real optimization works against them.

Their software reflects it:

  • system of record
  • not system of intelligence

In reality: glorified Google Drive with manual data entry.

No automation. No decisions. No leverage.

What we built

Carma replaces the entire stack.

Our AI system, Neo, runs fleet operations end-to-end:

  • automates all repetitive daily workflows
  • replaces all manual labor
  • replaces all fragmented software

And makes optimal decisions:

  • verifies pricing
  • selects vendors
  • schedules maintenance
  • audits invoices
  • determines replacement timing

Not when a leasing company wants to sell a new vehicle.

When it actually makes economic sense.

Every service makes Neo smarter.

Customers don’t add Carma.

They replace everything with it.

Traction

  • +10,100+ vehicles in 8 months, growing ~35%+ MoM
  • 13 enterprise customers (all $100M+ revenue, including F500 clients)
  • 100% customer retention
  • $2,500+ value per vehicle annually
  • 7.6x average cash ROI for customers

Why now

AI can finally automate judgment, not just data entry.

Before: hire more people or accept inefficiency.

Now: neither.
